| I want to share something with you and see what yall think.Do you add up monthly what you spend at convenience stores?I did and it was very scary.My husband spends enough money for a months worth of gas and a car payment of 300 bux.If you'll think about it,the average person goes to the c-store 1 to 2 xs a day.I think summer it could be more for some ppl.What do you think? |

| I try not to go into convenience stores period because I live in the city and they are always getting robbed. I just try to stock up on what we need at the grocery store and then when we run out, we just have to wait until I go again. |

| Yes, many people make the mistake of just blowing 1-10 bucks a day on nonsense. That is why my friend made 38,000 and couldn't even afford her bills. Especially, smoking or eating lots of snacks. They cost a lot. The only reason we can afford for me to stay home with my child is that we don't smoke and we don't carry cash ever. We buy our groceries and we buy our gas and that's it! If we want a snack we actually have to go out and purchase it because we never have any snacks in the house. It makes it more exciting to only eat it once in awhile not daily. |

| We never go into the convience stores. We pay for gas at the pump, therefore resisting any urge to buy something a little extra while inside. The only time we go into the stores, is while traveling and we need a drink. We buy everything for the week at the grocery store. If we don't have something, we can go back to the grocery store (it's just a few minutes away), or DH can pick up on his way home from work. He works for a bread company so he's in grocery stores all day. So sorry, I can't relate with you on this. |

| Yeah same here, I always pay at the pump for gas, never buy at convient stores, unless traveling and need a drink! We just stock up at the grocery store, and don't buy snacks for us, just crackers and fruit and veggies for the baby! |
