Man, the pre-cut tray is such a scam once you do the math. Did you actually compare what you're getting by weight though, because those frozen bags are mostly water and the veggies shrink down to nothing after you cook them? I'm curious if the fresh tray gave you more actual food per dollar or if it was pure convenience tax. What did you end up doing with the frozen stuff, just nuked it straight or did you throw it in a pan?

Wait, you spent over thirteen hundred dollars just on food you grabbed on the way to work? That is wild to me, mostly because I used to do the exact same thing and never once stopped to add it up. The part that really got me was the $6 and $9 amounts, because you are right, those never feel like real money in the moment. It is only when you stack them all up that you see how fast it adds up. I started making a big pot of oatmeal and keeping coffee at home, and it is crazy how much that alone changed things. Good for you for actually doing the math and fixing it.
