Saving Money by Bringing Lunch to Work
June 30, 2009
By Kevin Cafferty
Over at the Save More Money blog, James is planning on putting his money where his, uh, mouth is by not buying anything out of vending machines, and bringing his lunch and a snack to work:
My first 30 Day Challenge is to not buy any food from vending machines, variety stores or even fast food or take out food. If I manage to do so without spending a dime, I should be able to save from $136 to $205 a month. With this challenge I could save for my family from $1632 to $2460 a year.
That's an impressive amount, and if the money is invested in a High-Yield Savings account with a good APY, the interest earned will add even more to the savings.
