Water usage is probably my biggest. Living in a high desert, my wife and MIL see no problem with filling one side of the sink with hot soapy water to wash a few dishes because “that’s just how I’ve always done it”, to watering the grass and plants for hours. All of this makes me mental.

    www.Goodsuniteus.com is a start to seeing where your money goes. Still looking for a better alternative.

    The good news is as the giant evil corporations buy up everything it gets easier to just stop buying shit in general.

      Good idea, but they collect subpoenable data and nag about installing the app. Why do they need my data?

        Yeah I would love to find something better. Back in the 90s we had a book that you could look stuff up in. It was designed more as a shopping guide for groceries but it was super helpful.

        Wish there was something that provided insight without cost.
