[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re dual income and this would be an unacceptable level of spending. On occasion, it’s fine. On the regular, we would have a talk with each other. We have joint accounts and joint financial goals. We’re in this together and multiple $12 smoothies a week would not work for us. [/quote] A $12 smoothie is just a smoothie. Inflation has been terrible, and the fresh produce used in smoothies have especially gotten expensive. It’s hardly luxury to hitting the Jamba Juice after the gym. https://www.reddit.com/r/MiddleClassFinance/comments/1arly03/jamba_juice_large_smoothie_is_12_this_is/[/quote] Disagree. I think hitting up a smoothie place after the gym is a luxury and should be done infrequently. Same with Starbucks. This is all a lot of money down the toilet. But as a PP noted, if you have a set amount of fun money each month and you put towards smoothies, that’s your call. [/quote]
