i'm a full time student so i am alwaysss looking for ways to save some cash.... in my blog i will be periodically posting some money saving strategies i use to make sure i have money left over for shoes!
make your own coffee. $3 for an energy drink $6 for a frappachino? not coming out of my wallet! it's summertime in alabama right now (avg day= 95 degrees) so i like my energy beverages icy cool so here are some tricks........
-for a simple iced coffee: {need:coffee, coffee maker, pitcher, sugar/splenda, milk, ice}(start the night before) brew a large pot of coffee, unplug your coffee machine and let the coffee cool. pour the pot of coffee into a pitcher and place in the fridge. in the morning simply pour the coffee into a glass of ice (add cream, sugar, splenda, whatev).
-for a fakeachino:{need:coffee, coffee maker, pitcher, blender, ice trays, chocolate syrup, sugar/splenda, milk} follow the same steps as above to get your pitcher of cooled coffee. this time however, you will need to make coffee ice cubes.... just pour cooled coffee into ice trays and freeze.... throw about 6 coffee ice cubes, about 1.5 cups coffee, about 1/2 cup milk, sugar/splenda to taste, and about 2 tbsp chocolate syrup into your blender... you may need to add more liquid or more ice cubes depending on the consistency you prefer.... whahlah! top with whipped cream if desired :)
