Is Your Appetite Eating Up Your Savings?

November 10, 2008 · Filed Under money saving ideas

I’m one of those people that love to eat. Everyday around the same time I stop working for just a little while and think about what it is that i’m going to eat for lunch. Now that I am sincerely trying to save money and budget my spending habits, I have been giving up some of the delicious fast food that I am so used to devouring. I will not lie to you, it hasn’t been easy for me. I am honestly a beast when it comes to eating! It’s a love of mine. What I did was make my lunch before work everyday for a whole week. I just wanted to see how much of an impact that would have on my financial situation. This was one of the best ideas I have ever put into action! I calculated that I would save $35 – $50 per week. Thats about $200 that I save per month! Yeah, sometimes I miss the burgers and the burritos, the fried rice and the large cokes, but honestly I can find so many other ways to put that $200 to use. I highly suggest that you do this, too. I am certain that it will help you a great deal. Just try it for a good week or two. See how much you will save!
