    It wasn’t, and never will be, for me. However, I didn’t go crazy getting things I don’t need. I went out of my way to get the cheaper option on the vast majority of items. Still $600. That’s at least once a month. I can see why those less fortunate would have a hard time.

      For a time when dealing concurrently with diapers, formula, cat litter, cat food and the cleaning/laundry supplies that come with that was hitting $400-$550 Canadian at Walmart/Food Basics every two weeks or so for awhile, and that was two-three years ago before everything went turbo. Certainly was not buying nice steaks, fancy deli cheeses or the like at that time (nor have been since)
