So you’re getting more for less by eating out more often and not tipping? And you’re also saving more than ever? I mean, that’s cool, but I hope you don’t think you’re being altruistic.

I think GP comment is parody/satire? (maybe?)

At the expense of convenience?

I'm not sure I understand, would you rather me not eat out and help out small businesses? My money, my way of helping. I pay taxes for the rest.

I'm in the same boat as you. I want to help small businesses, but Amazon makes it easy to not do so, particularly during the holiday season.
