I agree! Just wanted to point out that it’s unrealistic to think that it wouldn’t be passed down to the consumers.

There’s no way they’ll pass the extra cost down to the consumer? That’s exactly what they’ll do. Uber makes users pay the congestion surcharge if you travel below 96th st.

Thanks for sharing!
How did you track your expenses?
I’m surprised to see Amazon Prime is your one subscription. How much do you spend on Amazon in a month? When I have Prime I find it tempting to over-spend on Amazon junk.
Also your laundry expense is quite low! I spend $30/mo on laundry, excluding soap.

I think splitting things like rent and food with your GF helps a lot.

OP is a full time graduate student. They’re getting free education and health insurance and will hopefully have a good salary after graduation.

I agree, but not all of Manhattan. Still plenty of gentrification happening above 110th

Reply to comment by BarriBlue in YSK: November 1 the grace period ends, and all food service establishments must maintain a sufficient supply of single-use plastic beverage straws that are not compostable and provide these, free of charge, to any person who requests one. by BarriBlue
Right, my question is why does it need to be non-compostable? Or is all plastic non-compostable? It just seems like weird wording.

Why is it a requirement that the plastic straws available by request are non-compostable?
