LPT: instead of throwing your playstation away after each game, try turning it off and on again to choose a new game.

Then the Playstation gets dusty and soggy. Better to replace it after each use.

You can put it in the fridge and It will be okay to play on for a couple more days.

Is it safe to dry it out in the microwave?

It's absolutely safe to put your PS5 in the microwave.

Good to know. I'll put it in for a few minutes once it's out the dishwasher. The dishwasher never quite fully dries my PS5, I usually have to put it in the tumble dryer afterwards with the silverware.

Don't hide this in the comments. Bring it to the lifehack community

......i just want to point out that you havent needed to power off a videogame console to change games since the original playstation in 1997 (or whenever that was, my memory of the Before Times is hazy)

Even better! More reason not to throw it away in this environmentally conscious age.

Ew. What are you, poor?

It's not about money - I get them free from the local weekly charity giveaways - it's about the environment. Did you know that PlayStations contain more plastic than half a toothbrush? And manufacturing ten of them uses more energy than five perforated toilet rolls?

Every time you throw away a PS5, another penguin dies.

Don't be foolin. That's obviously avocado toast you got hidden back there.

Are avocados not free, sorry I'm Californian, I survive off avocado toast because it's the cheapest thing

I love the season when they're 6 for a dollar. Lol

Typical big box shopper. My local farmers market only carries Nintendo Switches. Can easily keep your grocery bill under $400.

WHO BUYS 3 SEPARATE BANANAS

If that pisses you off, you should come to the store I work at. I shit you not, they sell INDIVIDUALLY PLASTIC-WRAPPED potatoes.

Wasteful dicks.

Is there any benefit of doing that?

You can throw directly in microwave

Generally it's best to take the plastic off but I won't tell you how to live.

I've seen others do it but I prefer to rub my tater down slowly with some olive oil and dress her up in the finest erbs then finish with Saran dress

You can do that with bagged potatoes too. It's called OPEN THE BAG, GRAB A POTATO, AND PUT IT ON A PLATE IN THE MICROWAVE. Lol.

(Obviously wash it first.)

Look at Mr Big shot over here guys, buying bags of taters. Cash money bidness

Lol, that's Ms Big Shot to you, friend. xP

(Also, for the record, in case you were serious, most potatoes tend to be sold in sacks or netted bags, so it's the individually wrapped potatoes that are the odd ones out...)

I pick each potato like no one is watching and it may be my last then gently place it in a little thin non recyclable bag where it travels to a small dark cardboard box known as the house of the rising tater

Honestly I need to start doing that. Most of the time when I buy a whole bunch of like 5 or 6 bananas, the last two end up brown and gross before I can eat them.

I'm talking about buying them separately in contrast to buying them connected(no matter how many you get). If you will peel them before they get too bad, you can chop them up short ways or put them on a stick whole then freeze, they make good ice cream substitutions.

Here's a trick: bring a small knife to the supermarket. Separate the bananas you want to buy and nip out the tips where they were joined. This will remove 3 grams of banana that you would have paid for. Every self made billionaire knows this trick.

Master, there's a man teaching blasphemy in the temple!!!!

2 gallons of milk?! that’s just reckless

That's not milk, that's white colored water...

That's not milk, that's white colored water...

🙄

“If the milk has all the proteins that make milk useful but doesn’t have fat, it isn’t milk!”

Don’t skimshame! There’s nothing wrong with perverts drinking whatever they want!

You do know that fat and cholesterol are also necessary elements in a complete diet, right?

Sure! That’s why the perverts fine people who drink skim milk have to get that stuff elsewhere.

I’m just saying don’t skimshame.

He'll run out of milk halfway to next grocery trip. Some people really be living on the edge

  • Food: $200
  • Data: $150
  • Rent: $800
  • Games, comics, anime, and Funko Pops: $9,210
  • Utilities: $150

Someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this, my family is dying.

I'd say cut on rents, go homeless, get a tent. Best way to save money... also, you can spend that more on animes figurines ;)

That's way too much on food. I recommend dumpster diving to cut that down.

The issue here is you buy 3 bananas instead of a bunch or two, it's cheaper that way.

Is it? Where do you live that bananas aren't just sold by the pound (or insert other regional weight measure)?

Yeah for me they're usually sold as "each", so the bundle is just proportionally more.

The font on the teabag box is the font I would expect to see if a multiplayer game added a “you’ve just been teabagged!” notification feature

You’ve been had. For that price the jif should either have transparency or be animated.

Sunflower seeds? You utter ANIMAL!!! Must be nice to be rich.

80 tea bags?? I can justify 40, but 80???

I have 9 cups per day, so 80 is too few for me in fact

Have you tried reusing them? When they are still relatively fresh you can brew them 2-4 times depending on the quality

40 teabags? What, are you shopping for more tea twice a day?

They come in a package of 200 for me. My mother gave me all her new tea bags. I will have enough till next year.

Must be them bananas.... They are awfully expensive nowadays

Who knew an Xbox and Sony product was classified as groceries.
