Make it yourself

The daily routine: wake up, prepare for the day, stop for coffee, then head to work or school. Repeat this. Every single day. For years. Have you ever wondered how much money you spend on a cup of coffee?

Taken from the most sold drinks at Starbucks, that could average about $5.00 a day. That's $25 a weekday. $100 a month. $1,200 a year. Stop the mindless routine and create a new, better, cheaper one. Take the $1,000+ you would spend on a cup of oversweetened coffee and buy a French press. You can buy them from anywhere between $10 and $50 for a decent one. If you want to go big, get a more expensive one. Or better yet, buy a coffee machine. One with a single pot can cost you about $50. There are ones with timers. Before you go to bed, set up the coffee pot and grounds and schedule the timer for the morning. The cost of coffee grounds may vary from $10 to $20, depending on where you get them. Go wild. Be free. Drink your self-made coffee.

There you have it. That beautiful coffee smell in your house wakes you the fvck up in the morning. Every morning.
