I realized how much money I was spending on Starbucks and other cafes after looking over my logs and I screamed for solid eight minutes.

I picked up some nice boxes of tea for work. I can have 25 cups of tea for the price of one latte.

I started paying real attention to reflexively ordering a drink with my meal. In some cases my drink was more than the meal itself! So now I drink water with my meal. If I want a cafe latte after that, then I have to think about it and make a deliberate choice. It’s healthier, too. I’m trying to only eat out once a day for lunch, and cheap meals too. Taking food from home isn’t really possible because of difficulties fringing anything at work, but I do take in fruit instead of snacking out.
