We are all guilty of purchasing that one or even two things on the regular that just simply are not worth the money, but continue to splurge on anyways. We know that in the end, it really wasn't all that worth it, but we continue to buy it just because. There really is no excuse or reason that we have for these purchases, but for some odd reason, they just continue to end up on our bank statement.
Here are 10 things that you may not realize you spend all your money on, but really do:
1. Alcohol
You almost always hate yourself the next day because of the amount you drank the night before and the amount that you spent drinking it. But, I guess we can go for round two again tonight.
2. Overpriced mascara
Drugstore mascara typically does the trick, but because us girls like to go above and beyond with everything, $27 mascara from Sephora sounds about right.
3. Luxury clothing
Most of the time, people won't even notice if the jacket you are wearing is Lucky Brand or not. But, since YOU know it's Lucky, I guess spending $110 on it sounds like a good deal—at the time.
4. Coffee
Coffee from Starbucks ranges between $4 to $6 depending on what size you get and what you additives you decide to throw in there. Sounds reasonable, but if you're the type of person that goes to Starbies everyday, you'll wind up spending between $700-900 a year. Not so reasonable anymore.
5. Overpriced restaurant food
Spending money on food is usually what gets people the most. For me personally, I hesitate spending $30 on a pair of jeans, but don't even flinch at the thought of spending $30 on a meal. It really is the worst habit that plenty of us are extremely guilty of.
6. Netflix/Hulu
Super, super guilty about this one. Not only do many people have Netflix, but many people have Hulu as well. Why have both? We really do not know.
7. Guacamole
Only $2?! I mean, why not. GUAC IS EVERYTHING.
8. Phone chargers
Honestly...the amount of money that I have spent on iPhone chargers in the past several years is ridiculous. I go through these things like it's nothing and even after all the money I have spent on them, I continue to destroy them.
10. Bottled Water
Bottled water usually ranges between $2-4, which is literally insane when you can just get it free of charge from the comfort of your own home. BRITA FILTERS ARE A LIFE SAVIOR PEOPLE.
