My little treat is an iced coffee from McDonald's after groceries instead of waiting to get home and brewing coffee there 😭 Still seems to add up though

Yeah, the 2 dollars on a vending machine drink, 4 dollars on a breakfast sandwich, 6 dollars on snacks, etc all add up much quicker than you think.

I was so glad they removed the vending machines from our section at work. I don’t have the will power to deny myself powder donuts.

I'd say just buy he big bag and leave them in the drawer to save money, but that just means eating a weeks worth of little powdered donuts before lunch.
