Espresso yourself!
Cutting back just ONE DAY a week on that work day Grande "Name Brand" take out coffee can save a person, on average, $150 a year. For that savings you are just a few dollars short of getting your very own Capresso Ultima Expresso /Cappuccino Machine (on SALE, of course). But if we factor in that $1.00 tip you also saved, you can even afford shipping and handling....Express even. Once you buy that, you can have your own Grandes at home 5 days a week and your yearly savings will be nearly $754.00*. For an added bonus, it's always exactly as you ordered it.
*Yes, I know, the cost of the replacement coffee to make it at home hasn't been subtracted, so for the picky people: You can get approximately 40 cups of strong coffee per pound. If we are generous and allow 7 lbs. of coffee we can make 280 cups (that's a bonus of 20 extra work day cups). So, if we purchase a bag of the SAME coffee we pay them to make for us at $9.95 a lb, with a tax of 8.5%, the total replacement cost would be $75.87. Subtract that from what we didn't spend and it brings our true savings to only $678.13 (without tip).
