[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, high school is tough. Unless your kids’ doctor has expressed some diet related concern to you just let them have their cookie to get through the day. Imagine how you would feel if someone took away your daily coffee/tea/treat. And It’s way cheaper than Starbucks. [/quote] Only if they buy one thing. Mine used to buy more than one or accidentally buy a double lunch on top of the lunch they brought because they didn’t realize how much that extra serving of chicken, a cookie and a drink cost. Some days the bills were $10+. I also had auto replenish and noticed I was sometimes getting $20 added more than once a week. This was years ago and I ended up showing my kids the itemized list so they could see how this was adding up. I gave them a set amount they could spend on extra food and anything over would come out of their savings or checking accounts. This worked well. [/quote]
