I'm a coffee drinker, and my wife and kids drink lots of juice and soda. Juts stopping at the convenience store because one of the kids is thirsty can easily cost us ten dollars as everyone always wants a drink. We decided that was a waste of money, and there were better ways to spend our hard earned cash. Here's what we do to save money on beverages.

First, coffee. I'll still grab the occasional cup at the coffee shop, but usually only if I want a place to hang out for a while. I don't mind spending the two to three dollars if I'm meeting someone there, taking a break and relaxing, or working on the laptop in the shop. If however I just want coffee and not a place to hang out, I make coffee in the office. It's far les expensive, the coffee is just as good if not better, and it's more convenient.

In the family car we always carry soda and bottles of water now. If someone just needs a drink we always have one handy, even if not cold. The kids don't mind much, and on all longer trips we bring cold drinks and fill the car cooler.

We also bought each child a water bottle from the local discount shop and wrote their names on them. The kids love to fill and drink from their bottles.

Now, none of this is difficult or requires much planning, but the money adds up. We figure we'll save at least a thousand dollars a year, and spend the money on something everyone can enjoy!
