Make that coffee at home

As tempting as it may be to pick up that Vanilla chai latte on your morning commute, 2024 is the time to put that habit behind you and start to make your coffee at home.

So by nipping to the local supermarket and picking up your favourite coffee ingredients, it’s time to finally invest in the perfect coffee-making station at home – including all the fancy syrups and milks to go alongside. Also, why not invest in your very own travel mug? These are an essential when you want to take your coffee with you on the go.

TIP: if you do cave, having a travel mug will sometimes knock some money off your coffee in a coffee shop on the go… just a little hint for if you do fancy that extra treat in January.

Host nights in with friends

Instead of hitting the bars and restaurants for your ‘new year, new me’ catchups, why not host them in the comfort of your home?

To save money this January, get some drinks and snacks from the local shop and have a catch-up on the sofa. By doing this you’ll be saving without even knowing it – and without the money coming out at the bar, you can happily sit and chat away about your New Year’s resolutions or plan your next holiday. Something that saving those extra pennies will help towards.
