Since I eat high fat moderate protein low to zero carbs my paleo eating is
much cheaper than Standard Western diet. Additional savings:
- no dental work for last 5-6 years
- no antacids, antibiotics, painkillers or other drugs for the same period
- energy savings (much less cooking - I eat at the moment more than 50% of
my food raw)
- no need to 'upgrade' my cloths size yearly ;)
- economy: me and my dog are eating basically the same food so nothing goes
to waste

plus I'm more productive at work so I can earn more.
