In my previous post I’ve introduced the #CoffeeSwap. Now here is how I’m going about it in the first place. Let’s start with a little bit of math:
I already admitted that usually my coffee of choice is a latte macchiato with soy milk. In Hamburg, Germany this equals approximately 3,50€.
3,50€ times five times four equals 70€ of monthly coffee-to-go spendings.
That’s insane.*
As of today I will keep track of this budget. I am using an app called Habit List to keep track of some other things already, so this will be easy. Now I’ve added „noffee“ to my list and will tick it off (or not) on a daily basis and reallocate a tidy share of the savings to music every month.
I will be transparent about it on my twitter using #CoffeeSwap (and just granted myself an advance buying this and this album).
Thanks guys.
* Not only from Noels perspective. It’s more than the people of Burundi spend on everything (and they are not even the poorest). My head is exploding right now. This will lead to further changes. Promise.
