Health: some more examples of my friends’ mesiras nefesh/non-materialism: never buying clothes anywhere but Deja New, kids either wear hand-me-downs or clothes from Deja New, never ever going out to eat even for a bagel or picking up an iced coffee, dinner every night is either pasta or tuna patties that you have to say “ha’adama” on because they contain way more potatoes than tuna (I’m not exaggerating. They do have fleishiks one night a week, but it’s usually hot dogs), rarely buying a new sheitel and when she does, she gets a second-hand one for really cheap.
