How poor are we talking? I just found a pressure cooker for $25 on Amazon.

Poor where we are talking about saving cents on buying canned beans vs dry beans because it makes a difference.

When you go in debt every month to just survive, every cent count.

I would definitely indebt myself of 25$, but I am in a situation where I don't need to, so it is easy to say. I don't know what that reality is.
