TIL my old $5 coffee habit was costing me over $600 a year

Honestly, I sat down last week and finally added up all my debit card charges from the cafe by my office in Denver. Ngl, seeing the number $52 just for coffee last month was a real shock. Has anyone else cut out a small daily spend and been surprised by the total?

Ever add up your bar tab?

I switched to making cold brew at home and saved $40 last month. @dylanwells, my bar tab math was even scarier, so I feel you. Those little charges really do add up fast.

That "little charges add up" thing is so real. It's not just the coffee or the drink itself, it's the tax and the tip every single time. @dylanwells, when you did your bar tab math, did you look at a whole year? I did that once with my lunch habit and the number was honestly scary, like a small vacation just gone on takeout containers. Makes you really stop and think before you just grab something.
