I hate the rhetoric of including groceries and vacations as if they’re the same. People don’t ‘waste money’ on food. They buy food because you need it to live
When I was making about $1400 a month I made a spreadsheet with prices of staple foods from four grocery stores in my area and went to all four on a regular basis to get the best price on each thing. Now that I make substantially more than that I “waste” about $400-$500 per month by only going to one store and buying everything I need. I still feel guilty about it sometimes.

The time saved is not waste.
Depends if ~$6k/yr is worth it for them
