Enjoying coffee from your favorite shop can be comforting, but it can also drain your wallet. The average cost for a cup of coffee is about $2.70, while specialty drinks can reach up to $3.94. For daily coffee drinkers, this can lead to spending over $1,000 a year. Fortunately, there are several smart hacks to help save money while still enjoying your daily caffeine fix.
• Order espresso shots instead of a full latte to save $1-3. You can customize it with your own milk and sweetener.
• Bring your own cup to get a discount and potentially more coffee for less money.
• Request a small drink in a large cup to get extra coffee without paying for a larger size.
• Ask for iced water instead of buying bottled water to save money.
• Order ice on the side to maximize your drink volume without paying for a larger size.
• Skip the water in iced tea to enjoy a stronger flavor and more caffeine.
• Use punch cards and rewards programs for free drinks and discounts.
These tips help coffee lovers enjoy their drinks without overspending. By implementing these hacks, coffee drinkers can significantly reduce their annual coffee expenses, allowing them to enjoy their favorite beverages guilt-free.
