I looked forward to my daily coffee shop latte, but this luxurious habit was starting to add up without me realizing how much it was costing me over the long term. When I looked at the figures, the regular takeaway coffee amounted to over $1,200 a year.
Suddenly paying out $4-$5 dollars for an Americano or creamy latte seemed extreme when I worked out what else I could do with the cash.
