Some of us said yes, the others no.
Well, why no? It is a rare treat for yourself is it not?
Well, actually no.
Some reasons to highlight why:
- Mcdonalds cost like $6-10+ for a breakfast, which usually cost like $1-2. Isn't that a huge luxury? It's almost 500-1000% of your normal breakfast! It's like eating at a restaurant.
- Today is not a special day, nor there was any event worth rewarding yourself (the colleague on duty who couldn't go for lunch could just ask any of us to buy food from the hawker centre)
- Chances are, the statistics are against you for your "rare" treats. It probably isn't as rare as you think. Go do the math and record. You'll realise that it probably eats significantly into your expenditure.
If you treated yourself with something already for today, be it Mcdonalds, a special premium Ang Ku Kueh, an impulse purchase of shoes, etc, that's all for the rest of the day.
These small small treats even if cheap, do add up. And at the end of the month, people wonder, "I don't seem to spend a lot this month, where did the money go? "
This is a possible source of money leakage (especially food).
