- Takeaway Coffees
One of the easiest ways to spend money on a daily basis is buying takeout coffees, especially if you work in an office! I used to work in a corporate office, where daily coffees were a must. Colleagues would make a trip to a nearby cafe every morning before 9 am for a latte or cappuccino. And I mean every single morning! Personally, I only joined them on a couple of instances but I could see how easy and expensive it was to maintain this habit, and I did NOT want it to happen on a daily basis! Instead, I made it more like a monthly treat for me, or when I had to occasionally catch up with colleagues. Otherwise, I would just use the in-office coffee machines. I guess it was easier for me because I don’t drink coffee — but I love a nice cup o’ hot chocolate.
