Let's get a list going. Like with a Target debit card you can get $40 cash back and it takes 1 to 2 days to be withdraw from your checking.

The efficiency trade off of a chest freezer is often broken by people’s inability to remember what’s in it. If you can’t reach the stuff at the bottom then it all goes bad. This is why an upright most likely makes more sense, even though it’s less efficient. You end up wasting as much food simply from forgetting what’s in there.

I consider not letting food go to waste as part of a poor person's fiscal financial responsibility.

Can I be pedantic? I'm going to go ahead: fiscal means tax-related, so probably just 'financial responsibility' is more what you're aiming for.

I don't know, can you?

TIL there's a difference, thanks
