Swap a Coffee a Day for a Holiday

There’s nothing quite like a steamy cup of liquid energy in the morning, but if you’ve been spending a fiver a day on coffee, and thought nothing of it, take a look at how you can turn a coffee a day into a holiday.


If you’re like most, and opt for a medium latte each morning, on average you’re looking at a $4.50 spend per day, and once the working week is over that’s $22.50 put towards your coffee fund.


Well coffee lovers, it might be time to consider settling for an instant coffee this morning and leave the morning coffee run behind to put those funds towards a holiday.


So what would happen if you were to stop your daily coffee run for one month, two months, six months or even twelve months?

Let’s see…

The cold pressed stats:

$4.50/day x 5 days = $22.50/week


Cut out your coffee for 1 month ($90)

So you’ve lasted four whole weeks without your morning cup-of-joe greeting you with an open lid. Now it’s time to treat yourself!


With $90 you could spend a day pampering yourself at any Peppers Spa Retreat. Perhaps your skin’s missing coffee the most, so an Elemental Nature Facial is the answer.


Or maybe you’d prefer to indulge in something delicious instead?

With $90 you can treat yourself to an incredible dinner at View Restaurant in Noosa.
