Money Saving Tips
A few weeks ago, I mentioned my love of all things coffee. And the fact that I may have just a
slight caffeine addiction. Which got me thinking: for those of us for whom caffeine is non-negotiable, what are some good ways to save on coffee prices day to day?
Don't worry, this isn't another article about how you can save thousands of dollars a year if you just stop buying $6 coffee drinks every day. I think we all know by now that if you are on a budget, the expensive lattes have got to go. I'm talking good ol' regular coffee for us good ol' regular coffee drinkers.
How can we save at the major coffee chains?

Stretching your food budget is as easy as learning to take
those leftovers that usually get pushed to the back of the fridge
and using them to create a new and exciting dish. The key to doing
this successfully is planning your meals to take full advantage of
everything in your kitchen. Following a few simple rules will
ensure that you don't end up with a refrigerator full of plastic
leftover containers.
Plan Ahead
There are literally thousands of ways to take main course
leftovers and turn them into something dramatically different. One
of the easiest ideas is making tacos, which can be done with
shredded beef, chicken or even turkey. Soups are another easy
transformation for a former main course meat. The tried and true
pot pie is also a great choice.
