      Same here. Wifey got me a Trade subscription maybe 3 years ago for Xmas and every 3 weeks or so I try a brand new single origin coffee I’ve never had before. (Except the one from India that tasted like pineapple! That one I ordered twice before it was gone.) It is $20 every 3 weeks since I drink one a day, but this week I switch up to the big bag so we could both enjoy it. That took it up to $50, but now it’s a full 2 pounds instead of 10 oz. (That’s 280g to 900g.)

    Good chocolade. Not the stuff you can get in a supermarket, but from specialty chocolate shops, or from chocolatiers themselves. While it can be quite expensive per bite compared to ordinary chocolate a single quality chocolate can already give you a very luxurious feeling, so if you have some disposable income available it doesn’t have to break the bank.

    The cheapest?

    I um, rebuild my own vape coil. Thing is, I know that’s a rather outdated concept, but one fine day, I ran out of coils, remembered I had a rebuildable for this device and just… never went back?

    4 inches of wire, and a clump of cotton. I usually never rebuild the wire and just install new cotton.

    So, ~$0.05 therabouts.

    coffee shop drinks

    i try to make my own at home but i buy individual drinks for anything that’s too expensive in “bulk” like good quality matcha or certain flavours.

    i feel so spoiled walking around drinking my one-a-month iced pistacho white chocolate matcha latte with oat milk </3

    A good water bottle, that keeps ice in the bottle for two days. Cost like $80 a couple years ago but it’s a HUGE luxury imo, waking up thirsty in the middle of the night and always having ice cold water available is priceless

    I shop deals at my local market. I can usually get the fancy coffee that’s about to expire 2 for 1. I just keep it in the freezer to last longer.

    Powdered Iced Tea packages.

    This crap is poison, full of artificial sweeteners and other chemicals, but water is just so bland.

    Coffee(3USD). Whiskey(3-12USD). A slightly fancier used motorbike (1100USD instead of 400) and the more expensive brand of tires.

        Motorbike is the cheapest and most convenient way to get around Vietnam, but my previous bike and tires were cheaper and serviceable enough, so anything more is luxury.
