July 27...snacks

I love to eat and I always feel hungry!
This week I did two days of road trips.  Knowing that I would be driving a lot and would need some treats.  Stopping at coffee shops along the way for treats can add up quickly.  I packed a cooler each day and was ready to go.
I made a coffee before I left to bring with me.  Most coffee shops give a 5 or 10 cents discount if you bring your own mug. Every bit helps plus it’s  one less cup for the landfill.
I also peeled a bag of carrots to make carrot sticks and put them in a Tupperware keep fresh container.
I packed a few bananas.
I popped popcorn and brought it in a bowl with a lid, it made it easy to eat in the car.  This was the first time I’ve done that and it was great and hit the spot.
I also packed water bottles and granola bars.
We were not hungry over our two days and it saved us money.
Do you pack snacks when you leave the house?

It pays to be frugal.
