I often hear, "You should never cheap out on a good office chair, shoes, underpants, backpack etc.." but what are some items that you would feel OK to cheap out on?

This can by anything from items such as: expensive clothing brands to general groceries.

Why have people downvoted you?

Their fear response is triggered by the use of “pill” as a verb.

And, of course, that their moral philosophy operates at the level of reflex.

LOL, sadly, this is probably the case. Well stated.

I'm a bit disappointed to see this behaviour on Lemmy of all places

Unknown, but it seems like many people enjoy their low-cost mobiles so I am happy.
