E-Books are big
business on the Internet these days. If you are not familiar with e-books,
they are simply books (usually less content than a printed book) that are
available for immediate download after purchase from a website. E-books are
great because they are easy to create, free to distribute and have a high
profit margin.
GOING OUT TO DINNER (DRINKS)
Category Name:
FOOD
Annual Savings:
$1,001 - $5,000
Description:
We are
busier than even in today's fast moving world. As a result, we tend
to eat out several nights per week. If you go to a "sit-down"
restaurant for dinner, chances are you are spending too much cash.
For one couple, it is not uncommon to order 2 cocktails or
glasses of wine each with a meal. It is a well known fact
restaurants make their money from drink mark-ups. 4 drinks at dinner
can easily cost $16 at a minimum. On a $40 meal (fairly common), you
new bill comes to $56. A 20% tip on $56 is $11.20, compared to a tip
on a $40 bill of $8.00 (difference of $3.20).
The
total difference just by ordering 2 drinks a piece is $19.20
EXTRA per dinner! If you go out to dinner just 3 nights per week
and spend the extra $19.20 per dinner, you are spending $2,995.20
per year, JUST ON DRINKS!
Next time, just order yourself
a water with lemon or even ordering a soda with free refills will
save you several thousands of
dollars.
