  1. Bruh... are you serious? Family of four, I'm the cook. Precut stuff is ridiculously expensive unless you're talking about frozen vegetables. I can buy a head of cauliflower for $2.89 or whatever it costs and cut it myself or I can get a bag of pre-cut cauliflower for more to get less. It doesn't take that long. Cutting veggies is not like resodding a yard.
  2. Kind of like passing over Land-o-Lakes butter and passing over HEB brand to get Hill Country Fare. Its like half the cost. Hill Country Fare FTW.
  3. Kind of like Tokyo. Department stores often have lots of options and excellent, high quality food.
  4. Time to switch to Richard's Rainwater
  5. Yes on the pork buns and YES on the mugginess. We went in June.
  6. Father? I'm already insinuating to my family that we will be eating more at home. They'll have to learn to get adventurous and cope with my better-than-average cooking. And y'all know I love traveling. I had previously booked a trip to Hawaii for the family after deferring for 25 years. Well, I booked two weeks but damn the cost so I lopped a week off. Half of too much is better than still too much! Next up... I really like Lifetime but it costs an assload. Time to look at Crunch!
  7. Certainly cutting back when going out. I could have a cocktail but I could also have a Lone Star.
  8. Well... you know, for some weird reason, some of us might be looking to save money lately. No reason. So, what are you doing to try to save money? I'll start... I've been with the same auto insurance provider for a long ass time. I stuck with them for years. Apparently they had been sticking it to me for years. Well, my homeowner's insurance broker reached out and said, "hey, do you want us to help you with an auto policy?" and I said, sure... why not. Well, sure enough, they were absolutely raking me over the coals. So, I switched to Progressive and my premium dropped about 45% which is ludicrous. Anyway, that's one. Also... damn we have too many streaming services. I'm going to ask the family to pick at least one to axe. All that crap adds up.
  9. I'll stick to those glorious pork buns... the ones that sear the roof of your mouth
  10. I had a generic "18 wheeler/truckin'" lunchbox. Pretty sure it was this... Kind of like the 18 Wheeler Arch will need to transport his sack when he runs roughshod over the SEC.
  11. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. We're currently doing 3 nights in Waikiki and 4 nights in Punalu'u - condo right on the water at Pat's. I'm thinking of bringing one of my bodyboards and fins to the island so I can hit up Makapuu. Or I might rent. Going to try to be smart and not go to Sandy Beach. My back already hurts. @luke duke talk to text is a. bitch. (not my picture below)
  12. It's funny, I just had someone else. Tell me it looks like Fort Lauderdale with a better beach
  13. Not sure if still a good recommendation but I remember some nice reasonable food options underneath Taipei 101. Yeah, the subway system is excellent and everyone was generally nice. Oh... stinky tofu is stinky, indeed.
  14. Dis you? I mean, that's the kind of cheap I'm talking about... https://www.marugameudon.com/menu/hawaii/
  15. You know me so well. Do they have a Kona Grill so I can get authentic Hawaiian food? Or maybe somewhere I can get my personal favorite... Hawaiian pizza. Mmmmmmm mmmmmmm
  16. This Thread
  17. Man, I've got four mouths to feed... two of which are a pain in the ass. Cheap is relative, of course. I hear food trucks are a way to go.
  18. Also, anyone used this? https://honoluluairporttransfer.com/
  19. I'm down with that. I heard the area closer to the zoo is good... maybe read the beach was less crowded. I also like visiting local zoos. No idea what theirs is like. Any good cheap food options in that part of Waikiki?
  20. Welp, lopped a week off of our trip because "weird economy" + "damn, Hawaii is expensive" So, we'll stay 3 nights in Waikiki without a car and 4 in nights in Punalu'u with a car. We'll be staying at the red dot. What's good in the hood?
  21. Gracias. Wish I could figure out how to get two more days on the mountain this year
  22. I had a great time at SXSW week. Saw lots of great music and I'm pretty sure I attended 0 official events. Z e r o.
  23. I would go with Lauderdale by the Sea. Very laid back and chill.
