I've chatted with some people only to realize that they somehow literally believe that smaller and more manageable payments is more financial prudent and responsible than occasional spikes in their spending. I don't get how they come to that conclusion, but I've run into people that believed this more than once.

You don’t necessarily need to stock up all at once. Phase the unhealthy items out and bring healthier options in.
