Saw a chart about how much people spend on coffee each month

I was reading a personal finance blog called The Penny Hoarder last week. They had a survey showing the average person spends $92 a month just on coffee shop drinks. That's over $1,100 a year, which really surprised me. I started making mine at home and it's saving me about $70 a month already. What's one small spending habit you cut that added up fast?

My buddy used to grab a fancy sandwich from the deli near his office every single day. It was like twelve bucks with a drink and chips. He added it up one month and almost had a heart attack. Now he packs leftovers and uses that cash for his weekend bike rides instead. The change was honestly shocking.

Hey, that daily treat's worth it to me.

Leftovers get boring real fast though.
