Small-Scale Question Sunday for March 17, 2024

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

My local grocery store sends out "Free [X] if you buy $5 worth of groceries" texts. Some of these wind up being pretty good. Since I can walk to the store easily, I pretty much always take them up on the offer if it's even mildly interesting since it's easy enough to grab a package of meat and a couple veggies to make the trip worth it. On a recent trip, I grabbed 10 cans of soup for $10 that also included a free carton of ice cream and cashed in on the aforementioned text message for two free bottles of Gatorlyte. Despite having sufficient cash to buy whatever groceries I want, I remain delighted by deals.
