As a full-time writer at BuzzFeed, I cover travel, books, relationships, sitcoms, and all things pop culture. "I love candy. I've loved it since I was 4. But I don't buy it anymore — especially at gas stations or convenience stores. I just can't justify $3 for a candy bar or some gummies that don't get me high." "And chips! I used to love getting a bag of chips to snack on during the week, but now they're $8-plus a bag? It's just absurd. My body is probably thanking me, but I'm still mourning my beloved snack." "Yup, I can no longer justify the fuel cost and mileage on the car." "For real. I'm so glad the 'minimal makeup look' is in right now. I've been skipping makeup altogether most days. I use it if I'm leading a large meeting or going to a family shindig where photos might be taken, but that's really it." "I let my hair get long. I prefer short hair, but long is cheaper." Note: Some responses have been edited for length and/or clarity.
