For me, this works out in being willing to pay extra money for convenience. Like going to a slightly more expensive gas station rather than drive further / wait in line for the cheap one. It also means just ordering delivery if I'm strapped for time and not worrying about the money. Or just paying for stuff at the airport rather than thinking of how to pack it.
At this stage in life, the savings that could be achieved by being more attentive to goods prices is quite minimal compared to daily swings in asset prices / bitcoin prices. So I reserve my attention for the bigger financial decisions and stop worrying about the smaller ones.
I agree. Being so preoccupied with petty cents arises from a scarcity mindset. Better to pay extra for convenience n think about how to upscale my income.
Though I have to confess that I love depositing my preloved books and papers at the recycling machine - in spite of the trouble - because I enjoy making petty cents out of nothing haha
