Drink more water

Day 8

Drink More Water & cut back on Snacks

· How does drinking water help you save money? Its actually quite a simple answer to that question. If you drink a glass of water before eating you will actually eat less. Your stomach will get filled up much quicker and you can start eating smaller portions of food. Another way to save money by drinking water is to drink out of a water bottle. Why spend a dollar at the concession stand when you can simply fill up your water bottle at a fountain for free.

 

· Snacks are many people Achilles hill. We spend so much money on snacks it’s kind of ridiculous. I use to spend 2 dollars a day on snacks when I was in high school. That means that I would've spent roughly 360 dollars on snacks for an entire school year. Wow! That’s quite a bit of money that could definitely be spent on better things.

· How can you avoid buying snacks? When you stop at a gas station to fill up your vehicle pay outside. Avoid going inside the gas station at all costs. If you have to go inside to pay, bring only the right amount of money to pay for your gas. Don't bring in any extra money! Another place that a lot of people buy snacks at is work. If you have a vending machine at work avoid going to that area. It's not worth spending all your hard earned money on a snack that doesn't even fill you up.
