Saving Money

Recommended Posts

So I got the wild idea to see exactly how much I spend on gas and food during the week. After 3 weeks this is what I have found.

My job is 28 miles each way

5 days a week

gas is ~$2.86 a gallon

truck gets ~13mpg average around town.

So...

28*2=56 miles a day

56*5=280 miles a week

280/13=21.53gallons of gas

21.53*2.86=$61.60 a week in savings

61.60*52=$3203.20 savings per year

Now I will be driving every other week in the car pool so I will actually be saving $123.20 a month.

Total savings. $1601.60

Lunch...

I spend ~$20 a day on breakfast and lunch. Sometimes just lunch.

I will be bringing my lunch 4 days out of the week.

After shoping for lunches for 3 weeks now my average cost for a weeks groceries at Kroger is $6.79

So...

20*4=$80 a week.

$80-6.79=$73.21 a week.

$73.21*52=$3806.92 a year

These numbers do not reflect vacation, sick, or holidays.

Grand total per year...

$1601.60+$3806.92=$5408.52 a year savings :woot:

What will I buy?

I might buy me another one very soon. But it all depends on the vehicle I am driving.
