I agree with most things. I shop more at club stores for party items. I also like to make a lot of food myself.

Yes, I agree with the results. I splurge on beverages. My go to item is disposable dinnerware for easy cleanup.

No. I don't buy any canned goods and I don't shop at Wal-Mart.

I agree. Chips and good dips are a must for my guests.

I agree I would get most of the stuff at a grocery store.

I love splurging on local cheese at the farmer's market, and summer fruits.

Most of the results are as to be expected but to be honest I would have thought on the second graph (circle) that there would have been a larger difference for chips and dip. Surprisingly, chips and dip isn't taking up a larger percentage. And no surprise most people, when shopping for needs for entertaining guests, most people choose to go to Wal-Mart. Seems like Wal-Mart is everyone's go to for just about anything!

I agree with most of these. I splurge on everything since it's easier to buy everything than have to make it.

I agree with the results. I also get cheese platters and meat platters because that is the easiest way and kinda cheapest way to go.

Quality over quantity. The people I'm spending time with make the event and not home much money spent throw the party.

I agree with what everyone stated. I'd rather invite less people and make it a more quality event.

I agree! Cheese platters are always a go-to when I'm hosting, and chips and dips are always a hit. I also tend to splurge on food and desserts.
