Default What costs you the most $$$ day to day? Value and percentage.

Just curious what is something you guys buy on a daily bases that if you count it all by the end of the month actually costs you a load of cash??

Me personally 6 days a week I buy a pack of cigarettes, a 20oz Redbull and fill up whatever gas I have to full (I like keeping a full tank of gas daily), I been calculating how much these three cost for every 30 days and it's a whopping $770 +/- give or take. If I drive the Monte carlo I'm usually around $550 a month, if I drive the M5 for 30 days it costs me close to a $1000, gasonline is the biggest dissuasion in my money spendings.

Thankfully a week of my daily spendings costs me less than %15 of my monthly earnings. So I'm not as bad as some of my coworkers and friends/family.

The thing that would get me is drinks or snacks buy at work, it can vary from day to day, like today i think i spent $4 and change, some days its more, some its less. I don't count gas as i need that one way or the other.

I'm bad with eating out at work and am worse on the weekends. I try and bring food to eat at work every now and then, but sometimes I just need to get away from the office to clear my head. Makes it more difficult since most of the other people at work leave for lunch too.

whatever gas I have to full (I like keeping a full tank of gas daily),
That's kinda strange, filling up the car every day.


Honestly, I don't really factor in gas either- it's all over the place depending which car I drive (sometimes I might leave a car empty and have to fill two cars on back to back days) and where I go on weekends. I just chalk that up as an expense of living a little further from the city- not much I can do about it other than sit at home on weekends.

House payment I guess. Wife always pays extra on it. It is our only debt now.

Daily expense would be cigarettes. A pack to a pack and a half a day depending on the day. Also car parts is a huge one.
