Step 26 in saving $10,000 a year.

Skip the 3D.

At Columbus’ Arena Grand Theatre an adult ticket for a normal movie is $9.50, but an adult ticket for a movie in 3D is $13.50. That’s an extra $4.00 and if you are taking a family of 4 it’s a $16.00 savings. If you go to the movies 4 times that’s $64.00. It doesn’t sound like much, but why throw it away or spend that bit of extra cash on popcorn.

1) ValueTime Coffee
Good coffee, that is to say not bad, because we have all had bad coffee. It has a very mild flavor and people wanting a stronger smell and flavor should use a little more. At less than $5 for a 34oz can, it is well worth the $3-$5 savings over other coffees.

2) Muffins from a pouch or box.
Martha White, Betty Crocker you name it, all of these are a great way to start your day. Why am I endorsing these en mass? Because all of them are a better idea than buying a bakery muffin.
The bakery muffins are larger, but the benefits end there. The muffins you bake yourself from a pouch or box take as much time to prepare 6 as it does to buy one bakery muffin. I baked some muffins from a pouch this evening and it took 16 minutes including baking time. Once you add up standing in line and driving to the bakery it’s easy to see how 10 to 15 minutes could be eaten up. And where do you eat your muffin? Do you sit at your desk and eat it? Wouldn’t it be easier to eat at home?
Yes the bakery muffins are bigger, so eat two out of the pouch.
My pouch muffins cost around $1.50 and the pouch yields 6 muffins, that’s a quarter a muffin. Compare that to $2.00 or more for one bakery muffin.
