I agree and I like to splurge on items that set the ambiance like candles, etc.

We go through many different things in our house since I have 3 kids and when their friends come over and they do their cupcake challenges, they can get messy.

My grocery stores are far more convenient than Walmart so I shop there the most (Walmart is my online shopping, less in-store). I can see why the results are as shown. I tend to buy beverages, chips/salty snacks , cheeses and ingredients to make my own foods when hosting. I'm not a prepackaged kinda host. My splurge hosting food is probably the main course meats (I prefer quality and am willing to pay for it.)

When entertaining, I splurge on good quality meat. We're not really big drinkers, so we focus on the food.

I am all about Walmart. From serving pieces to party favors, food to decor, I can always find something fun and creative for any festivities.

I splurge on chips and paper products. I don't like cleaning u a big mess. I agree with the results. I like to buy everything and fix it myself than getting platters.

Yes this is totally my habits and it's cool to see what others buy too. Chips and Walmart are top choices and definitely anything considered a snacks! We love our food!

I was surprised that people spend on paper products. I am trying for reusable plates/cups. I splurge on fancy candy/chocolates. I make sure that everyone has enough interesting, nutritious drinks like lemonade and iced tea, which I make myself.

Results seem pretty spot on. I splurge on custom items for special guests coming, like their favorite pie or something to accommodate special allergy or need.
