    It doesn't make sense getting stuffed with food only because you don't want to spend your money in vain. You'd better give what is left to someone else. And $ 20 is the price here, too.

    1. Dent in:
    *** ( "Dent in" is an idiomatic expression that means to make a noticeable reduction or decrease in something. It's often used in the context of trying to make progress or achieve a goal, such as We need to make a dent in our to-do list or The new policy made a big dent in the number of customer complaints. Essentially, it means to make a significant impact on something, whether it's a problem, a task, or a goal)
    - We need to make a dent in the amount of work that needs to be done.
    - The company's profits took a big dent after the market crash.
    - The new policy made a big dent in the number of complaints from customers.
    2. Rags to riches:
    ***( The phrase "rags to riches" is an idiom that describes a person's journey from a state of extreme poverty to one of great wealth or success. It is often used to describe a person who overcomes significant challenges to achieve success and wealth, or someone who started with very little and became very successful through hard work, determination, and perhaps a bit of luck. For example, He went from rags to riches after starting his own business or Her life story is a classic rags-to-riches tale)
    - She went from rags to riches after starting her own business.
    - The movie is about a man who went from a poor background to being a successful businessman.

    3. Make ends meet:
    *** ("Make ends meet" is an idiom that means to have enough money to pay for one's basic necessities, such as food, housing, and bills, without running out of money or going into debt. It refers to the idea of connecting the two ends of a budget, so that the income earned is equal to or greater than the expenses incurred.
    People often use this phrase to describe the challenge of living within their means when their income is limited or when they face unexpected expenses. For example, "With two part-time jobs, she barely manages to make ends meet" or "It can be tough to make ends meet in this expensive city")
    - With two part-time jobs, she barely manages to make ends meet.
    - The family had to cut back on expenses to make ends meet.
    - Even with a full-time job, it can be tough to make ends meet in this expensive city.
    4. Penny pinching:
    *** ( "Penny pinching" means to be very careful with money, to be very frugal, or to try to save as much money as possible by being thrifty and cutting down on expenses wherever possible. It usually involves making small, careful spending decisions in order to save money in the long run. For example, She's always penny pinching, even though she has plenty of money" or We need to start penny pinching if we want to save up for a vacation)
    - We need to start penny pinching if we want to save up for a vacation.
    - He's always penny pinching, even though he has plenty of money.
    - Penny pinching can be a good strategy for saving up for a big purchase.
    5. Get your money's worth:
    ***( "Get your money's worth" is an idiom that means to receive good value or benefit from something, usually in terms of money spent. It refers to the idea that when you pay for something, you should receive a fair return on your investment, whether it's a product or a service.
    For example, if you go out to eat at a restaurant and you feel that the food, service, and overall experience were worth the price you paid, then you can say that you got your money's worth. Or if you buy an expensive piece of equipment that lasts for many years and performs well over time, then you can say that you definitely got your money's worth.
    The phrase is often used to express satisfaction with a purchase or investment, and can also be used to encourage someone to spend money wisely)
    - I always try to get my money's worth when I go out to eat.

    6. Paycheck to paycheck:
    ***( "Paycheck to paycheck" is an idiom that describes a situation where someone is living on a very tight budget, with little or no savings and just enough income to cover their basic expenses from one paycheck to the next.
    People who live paycheck to paycheck often find it difficult to save money or plan for the future, as they are constantly struggling to make ends meet and cover their immediate expenses. They may be at risk of financial hardship if they encounter unexpected expenses or a loss of income.
    The phrase is often used to describe the financial situation of low-income workers or those with unstable employment. For example, "Many people in this city live paycheck to paycheck" or "It can be hard to save money when you're living paycheck to paycheck")
    - After losing his job, he was living paycheck to paycheck for months.
    - Many people in this city live paycheck to paycheck.
    - It can be hard to save money when you're living paycheck to paycheck.
    7. Make a quick buck:
    ***( The idiom "make a quick buck" means to make money quickly and easily, often by doing something that is not honest or ethical. It is usually used to describe someone who is willing to do something that is morally questionable or illegal in order to make money fast, without putting in much effort or work. For example, He's always looking to make a quick buck, even if it means breaking the law or I don't want to make a quick buck by scamming people, I'd rather earn an honest living)
    - He's always trying to make a quick buck, even if it means breaking the law.
    - The company is not interested in making a quick buck at the expense of their customers.
    - I'm not interested in making a quick buck, I prefer to build a sustainable business.
