    This is a simple game. I will start by listing 3 items you can buy. You have to say which you would spend (buy at regular price), which you would save (buy only if it’s on sale/coupon), or shelf (leave on the shelf). You have to assign all 3 items and each category can only be used one. After you finish you have to list 3 new items for the next person to play.




    10lbs of chocolate
    10lbs of potatoes

    I don’t know anything about oil and we don’t have a vehicle but I would buy the 10w 30 oil, save on the 5w 30 oil, and shelf the 10w 30 synthetic oil (because synthetic sound like a cheap knockoff).

    I would buy the Phillips screwdriver (needed for most of our kids toys... including the really annoying Leonardo ninja turtle that says “it’s time to change my batteries” every 10 minutes for months. The poor toy mysteriously broke when I changed to “invisible” batteries.), save on the slot screwdriver because, shelf the Robertson screwdriver #3 (because I’ve never seen anything that actually uses it).
    *we only have one of those little screwdrivers with several different bits.

    I would spend on a culinary diploma because it’s an investment for the future, save on the spatula because you have to have one to cook but they can be overpriced, shelf the chef jacket.

    Fishing supplies to catch your own dinner (fishing rods, shovels, nets, lobster traps,whatever...)
    A seafood meal at an expensive restaurant
    50$ worth of seafood to make yourself (if you save on this one you are still spending 50$ out of pocket but getting more for your money)
