$3 if I drink 1-2 cans a day. I often drink less than that. Soda is quite cheap here.
A twelve pack of store brand rootbeer per day runs $2, x 7 days per week = $14, x 52 weeks per year = $728 annually.
Money well spent for my sanity.
I’d say it comes to about a dollar per week for soda, which is significantly less than it used to be. Not because I’m trying to cut back, but because nearly all my meals are at home, and I rarely feel like spending the money or making the effort to stock up on soda.
I don’t drink soda at all so… $0
Coffee is free at work, but occasionally I’ll get a Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks cup, so…$4 a week
I drink lots of tea at home, so… $12 month
$336 a year on coffee and tea. Sounds OK to me.
I forgot to add Red Bull, my occasional late afternoon energy boost.
2 four-packs a month, on average, is $150 a year.
$2, maybe 2.50 on soda. That’s two 2 liter Cokes we usually get for a dollar each.
I spend 2.50 for a small jar of instant Folgers every week too, and it makes several cups a day.
Now, let’s look at my milk fund. I spend around 3.50 per gallon, usually buying three gallons a week (family of four).
Bottled water- around five dollars because our “Wonderful Memphis Water” isn’t so wonderful in this apartment complex. It smells like bleach. Boiling it is a hassle so we just buy four jugs.
I think my best purchase is the tea bags. I usually catch them on sale and a box will last a few months. I use tap with that so I guess it would come to about a dollar a month. Sugar not included of course. 
Sodas–$.60/week.
Iced Tea/hot tea–$5/week
Coffee–$0/week, typically.
About $18-$20 NZD per week on soft drinks (mainly convenience while I’m out and about between jobs). That’s around $13 USD. I buy tea bags very rarely, coffee about once every three weeks or so (at about $3 USD), bottled water never (I get it given to me sometimes), and milk at about a couple of bucks a week. I tend to buy drink mix sachets in between, and mix 'em up with water at double dilution. That’s about $3 per week during the summer.
I’m down to a little under 2 liters of Diet Coke or Diet Pepsi a day. Hey, I used to drink a lot more! I’ll call it 2 liters just to round it off and throw in drinks when I eat out and call it $12-15 a week.
I don’t drink coffee or alcohol so $0 on that.
I do have the occasional tea but that’s pretty rare.
Wow. So many non-coffee drinkers!
And soda apparently costs very little, for those of you who drink it. I thought it would have been more.
Ye doGs, I spend a lot of coffee, don’t I. :eek: I sort of segued into drinking ridiculous amounts of (pricey, I don’t buy store brands) coffee years ago when I quit drinking. And it costs me way less than my alcohol habit, which was going to cost me a whole lot more than money…
Diet Pepsi is my primary vice. I go through about two cases in a week, and I usually stock up when I can find them for $6/case or so. (Sometimes less, but rarely.)
Throw in the occasional one bought while out and about, and I’d call it $15/week.
I drink 2-3 sodas a week and 2-3 sports drinks, but they are provided by my employer. So, $0. If I actually paid for them, $20-30/mo.
I spend about $5.00 a week on sweet tea.
Well, considering that I refer to Coca-cola as “Elixer of Life” you might think I’ve got an expensive soda habit.
You’d be right. I used to drink ten liters a week. I’m down to two or four. So I spend about $1.30 or $2.60 a week on my habit. Call it $2 a week, and you wouldn’t be too far wrong.
I spend at least 100 a month on soft drinks.
Almost nothing on sodas. I suppose I don’t drink a 12 pack a year. Tea only passes my lips when eating Chinese.
BUT!!! a boatload of beer and wine.
I agree with Hal, but I have access to a refrig all day so I buy those two liter bottles for a dollar. Total bill for a week $15.
Three three-liters a week at $1.50 a bottle equals $4.50 a week in colored flavored water. If you’re going to nurse a pop addiction, bottles are the way to go.
I pretty much only drink coffee at work, and they pay for it. My tea and alcohol consumption is negligible.
With Sandyhook, no soft drinks, and we get coffee running about 8 bucks a half-pound (snobs), but boy, we do go through fancy beer and liquor (major snobs). Drinking Chopin vodka straight this evening.
I’m like iamthewalrus(:3= in that my company provides free soda, so the Diet Pepsi that I drink during the week doesn’t cost me anything. I don’t buy soda, because at home I only drink water. Sometimes I’ll buy some Lipton Iced Tea to drink at home.
Coffee and hot chocolate are also provided free at work: I don’t drink hot coffee (though I’ll happily spend $5 at Starbucks on a Frappuccino), but a few times a year I indulge in some hot chocolate.
