One thing I used to spend a ton of money on was coffee. Now that I work nightshift I just buy fancy creamer, use K cups at home, and work has coffee available all night. I moved on to getting a smoothie before work every day because 5:30pm before work is a little 'early' for a heavy dinner when I just woke up. Smoothie king vanilla hulk costs $6ish with occasional coupons. I was inspired by breaking my $5 coffee habit and made a copy cat recipe for my favorite smoothie. I estimate it will cost about $2 a smoothie with materials and also save time sitting in the drive through. Recipe below if interested:
1 scoop protein (I used quest vanilla milkshake flavor) 1 cup milk Ice about 6-7 cubes 2 scoops Haagen das butter pecan ice cream 1/2 Banana Optional splash of vanilla extract
