WHY DON’T YOU…
-Buy, and subsequently return, an American Apparel sweatshirt each time you’re cold? It’s very comforting to have a gift card in your wallet that can warm you up at a moment’s notice.
-Go to the supermarket once per week and just never unpack your groceries from the trunk? If you live in the Northeast and drive a car and it’s winter, there’s no point; they’ll remain refrigerated, and it’s neat to have a mobile icebox.
-Keep teabags in your handbag? When you go to a cafe, order a coffee and a cup of hot water. Even if you tip the barista well, you’ll be saving at least $1. Add a lot of milk to your coffee (free calories). Your negligibly-priced tea will be steeping and sippable by the time you’re finished with the coffee, whose temperature was lowered by the milk.
Follow this advice, and you’ll not only save yourself money and time, but you’ll also feel as though you’re living deliberately and that you’re “getting away” with something, which is the surest way to protract the good parts of adolescence.
