Hunting for deals and buying in bulk is a rich person's privilege
Privilege: "a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group of people."
This language about "privilege" is the normalization of disfunction.
I'm sorry, but not abusing booze or drugs, or not smoking is normal and available to all. Doing those things is abnormal.
Thinking past the here and now is normal and available to all, thinking only of today is abnormal.
Paying attention in school is normal and available to all. Fucking off and denigrating those that actually try in school as "nerds", "Oreo's", "Apples" or any other derogatory slur, is abnormal.
Cooking food from inexpensive and wholesome ingredients is normal and available to all (oh, and so called food deserts are a myth created out of whole cloth by people with fucked up agendas). Only eating processed crap is abnormal.
This attempt to shift the language is destructive and self defeating to those with the abnormality. Their condition is "normal" and those that aren't dis-functional are abnormal. It relieves them of any responsibility to improve their own lot in life and sows hatred at those without disfunction.
It attempts to turn admirable behavior (thrift, hard work, self betterment, not being a complete fuck up) into somehow having taken from someone else - see the definition of "privilege" - a special right..... No, buying rice and dry beans and an onion in the more economical manner instead of shoveling big macs in my face isn't some special right.
Anyone can do it.
When there is a law passed and enforced at the point of a bayonet that says only certain people can buy TP in a 12 pack instead of by single rolls, or that only rich people can buy 5 pound sacks of rice while the poor are required to eat at Burger King or are only allowed to buy 8 ounce packages, THEN I'll agree there is "privilege". Until then, sorry, but the fact is, BY DEFINITION, there is no privilege of rich people buying in bulk - so STFU.
