It's nice that while you were in college and had obligations of 12-18 hours a week, you found the time to shop at multiple stores to maximize your savings.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of people (single moms, for example) that work 80 hours a week at three minimum wage jobs, each of which purposefully employ people at non-full-time hours to avoid needing to provide benefits, and they just don't have the time to go to research prices and recipes, visit multiple stores, go home exhausted, and still find time to cook.
