Doing the Math: Give Up the Coffee

...or at least brew it at home!

I'm not a coffee drinker, so I don't get the appeal of the stuff.  I love the smell but the taste, not so much.  But I know there are millions out there who love coffee, otherwise places like Starbucks wouldn't be in business.  So this money saving tip is for all of the coffee lovers out there.

Brew your coffee at home.  Get yourself a pretty little reusable cup if you need to take your coffee and run.  Even if you are buying the cheapest cup on the go, in a range of $1.50 to $2 a cup every week day, you're still going to spend $391 - $520 a year.

I can think of lots better ways to spend that amount of money.
