On So Like Here's My Business Card With My Contact Info Or Whatever Cool
@Jenn@twitter yeah! That's all I ever did when I had them. Stick them into jars on counters. Never worked though.

@jfruh sadly ING (in Canada anyway) seems to have capped the amount of accounts you can do this with to five or six. It's so satisfying I would have 100 if they would let me.

On How Much Do You Spend on Groceries Every Week?
About $100 a week for two adults living in British Columbia. We eat very well, and pack our lunches for work. We rarely eat meat, maybe steak and fish once a month? And because we go across the border every few months to stock up on non-perishables and freeze-ables at Trader Joe's or PCC $100 is probably a bit low. We're trying to meal plan our up-coming week out every Sunday, and do the shopping then, as we have to hit four or five shops to get everything we want, and to get the best prices.

On A Conversation With a Kyrgyz Schoolteacher About Wedding Customs (And Costs)
@j-i-a Thank you! I wish him well, they're going from Vladivostok to Portugal, so it should be interesting.

On I Made $570K Last Year, But I Don't Feel Rich (In Fact, I Feel Worried)
@Jake Reinhardt my parent's are cheap - they're the first to admit it. My dad buys all his clothes at Value Village and they fix everything, ride bikes instead of drive, really cheap. They sent me traveling when I graduated from high school. Being cheap isn't being poor.

@Megano! My husband and I have a two to three year cushion, and we don't feel rich. We debated ordering a pizza for about half the day yesterday because it seemed like a silly thing to spend money on - I think so much of it is perspective and preterites.

@germanwordfor_kichererbsen I have a pretty slick 80's Norco roadbike that I got at a bikeswap for CAD$180. It has aluminum tires, it is nice and light, and it's very mechanically sound. I have noticed, though, being a life long bike person, that prices vary dramatically based on what city you live in. Oh! I also used to work at an auction and we would handle police seized and recovered bikes and sell them, usually pretty cheaply.
