Estate Planning, Wills and Trusts Law Offices of Dennis Albright 38 years experience 527-2740 We Promote Ethical Behavior Break the vending spending habit There's almost no escape when it comes to falling victim to last- minute food spending. With a vend- ing machine around every corner inside and a drive-thru around every corner outside, it's no wonder how much we've been conditioned to dish out the loose change on on-the- go treats out of habit. But when the drive to work, school or home is incomplete without a pit stop at the drive-thru and you can work your go-to vending machine blindfolded, it's time to rethink your spending habits. While dish- ing out loose quarters on on- the-go snacks seems like a small price to pay, the expenses don't take long to rack up. Cutting back on habitual food spending is easy to do when you do the simple math. Here's a look at the average workweek in the life of a habitual spender — and how much you can save on costs without cutting back on food: Monday drive-thru coffee = $3.00 vending machine granola bar = $1.25 Tuesday drive-thru coffee = $3.00 vending machine pretzels = $1.75 Wednesday drive-thru coffee = $3.00 vending machine chips = $1.75 Thursday drive-thru coffee = $3.00 v ending machine candy bar = $1.00 Friday drive-thru coffee = $3.00 vending machine trail mix = $1.75 WEEK'S TOTAL: $22.50 Then there's the grocery store alternative: Ground coffee: $7 for 270 cups = 26 cents per cup Granola bars: $5 for 12 granola bars = 42 cents per bar Pretzels: $4 for a 35-serving bag + $3 for 100 Ziploc bags = 14 cents per bag Chips: $4 for a 10-serving bag + $3 for 100 Ziploc bags = 43 cents per bag Candy bars: $9 for 32 mini bars = 28 cents per bar Trail mix: $5 for 34 servings of peanuts + $3 for 17 servings of raisins + $4 for 8 servings of M&Ms + $3 for 100 Ziploc bags = 86 cents per bag WEEK'S TOTAL: $3.43 That's a staggering $19 saving on weekly food expenditures. So next time you get a craving a quick, "cheap" pick-me-up, step away from the vending machine and opt out of the drive-thru. All it takes to save big is a little bit of planning. It's no surprise that the average meal-planner ends up saving a whopping $40 to $100 a month. So please, for the sake of your wallet, be a statistic.
