May 6, 2015: Bring Your Cup
You’ve heard the saying every penny counts? Today I’m going to tell you how every dime counts too!
Next time you go to your favorite coffee shop, bring your own cup. Most of the coffee chains will reward you by giving you $.10 off your drink, regardless of whether it is coffee or not. And for those of us that don’t like coffee, I know for a fact this can be done with cold drinks such as iced tea as well.
If you are one of those that likes to stop at a coffee shop every day, ask if they have their own refill program. Typically once a year they will sell a cup at a higher price, but when you bring it in you’ll get either free refills or a drastic discount.
