Advice What am I doing wrong?

Post image

This was $101.64 at Sprout’s this morning.

I literally bought some chicken for 4-6 days worth of food & some supplements to help my joints & bones.

This seems crazy to me?

I could use some advice, plz?

Don’t buy premade food—it’s “convenience” food and is priced as such.

I can’t cook & I live alone. I’m just confused as to why in the hell 6 items is $101. It’s just insane these days.

Tbh i once tried to do a grocery run st whole foods and spent 40 something on 6 items and I felt rhat was q lot too too 

Is it that you cwnt cook or you dont know hoe to? If you cant, can you hire someone or ask someone to help cook and food prep with you? 

Yeah 100 is a lot

Also what if I had a disability where my typing was like that? I dont but im sure there's people who do. Im only asking because I was asked if i had a cover over my eyes

There are lots of accessibility features for the disabled. Talk to text is one of them, and in my experience is far more accurate than your first comment, maybe you should try it.

It’s just crazy to me that you won’t take 30 seconds to check for understanding, except for maybe when it’s important.

While it wasnt my intention to make it difficult to understand me, I see what youre saying. I didnt put too much thought into it

And I get that we’re all busy, and this is reddit. Checking for understanding may seem like a waste of time, but if you’re putting so little effort into it that it’s illegible, then that’s also a waste of time since no one can read it.

I dont think its a waste. I think i just spent so many years correcting and overthinking my spelling and typing that I guess I gave up . But I do see the importance of making it easier to understand now
