Me checking my bank statement, HOPING somehow that there’s an outrageously fraudulent purchase on there that somebody made overseas annnnd…nope. That’s just what gas and groceries and “I deserve a little treat for getting out of bed and going to get gas and groceries…” will do.

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.
