Reply to comment by UmbralRaptor in What do you spend per month on groceries in DC? by questionsbecause

It’s not even the $0 on alcohol (honestly good on you for that), but how does anyone maintain a decent social life without spending way higher on rideshare and eating out than you do?

Well, s/he doesn't drink, and owns a car, so might drive to where they need to be. Might prefer taking Metro (bus or rail) or walking. Might live in a fun part of the city so doesn't need to go far.

Also, thinking on it, when I've been socializing lately, it's generally been with friends, at my place or theirs, and we're usually ordering in or doing cooking/cookout, etc. If that's what's going on with u/UmbralRaptor, that's a cost that might be in their grocery budget.
