The splurge that saves you money...

[alison]

There's are two shops in Chicago where I love to buy loose leaf herbal teas (my favorite: rooibos caramel).

For about 20 cups' worth, I spend $5. I fill up a huge thermos of it (think contractor-size!), and take it to campus with me.

In the end, I save money. One cup of tea in my building costs around $2. I get tea everyday for a month for $5.

Or maybe you all know this...

Man o man, I'm full of typos today. It's been a rough day, and it's only 9:40. uch:

Um yeah, so it must just be me, and you all know already know about eliminating the latte factor from your lives.

Nope- I bring my coffee to work. Of course we have coffee here but it sucks.

I cut out the latte factor by making my own and sometimes taking it in a travel cup.

I need to get a thermos, as the coffee here sucks. I've tried regular travel cups but in the winter, it tends to get cold during my 30 minute commute.

I bring my coffee to work as well. Although some days I do splurge on that Mocha!
