The coffee is the tricky one: I buy small coffees, so I only pay 2.50 for a smallish single-shot flat white, and I only have one coffee a day. if I need more, I have a french press and coffee in my office. I totally agree that cafecoffee is the goods. I just can't afford more than one a day, and my body hates me if it's too many anyways.

Even just the workday expenses of busfare plus decent breakfast plus decent lunch plus bottles of water plus the odd cheap book to get you through a court day. *sigh* And that's just necessities!

And while lunch can be brought from home, how do you get around the coffee issue? At best I could save $3.50 by having the morning coffee at home. But let's not kid ourselves here, I'm handy with my little Sunbeam, but good cafe coffee it ain't (except that one freaky one I made that was PERFECT).
