Buy a latte every morning before work? Here's how much money you're frittering away

Gulp.

Starting off the morning right! @oqcoffee #lattetogo #ontherun #caffeinefix #coffeebreak mmmcoffee19 mmmcoffee19

ANYONE WHO IS a slave to coffee will be fully aware of the massive chunk of change you can spend on coffee per month.

A new survey conducted by BBC’s Good Food shows that younger people are spending a ridiculous amount of money on food per month, thanks in large part to the fact that they eat out in cafés or restaurants more often than the older demographic.

Think about it: we’re all guilty of spending stupid amounts of money on takeaway sandwiches and coffees — but think of what you could be buying instead.

If you were to spend €2.80 on a medium latte every morning, it would equate to €14 per week or €56 per month. And that equates to €672 per year. Yikes.

For that money, you could buy…
