become a penny pincher

just read an article in the local paper about a couple that went a whole year without making any major purchases…other then food, medicine, a fresh underwear, nothing…..i’m a runner and a marathoner, but spend money like water drips off of a glacier..i need to fix that…..not spending money on just anything and everything, all the time..contantly..i can’t drive past a starbucks without stopping, and never just for a normal coffee..at 4 or 5 bucks a shot, more then once a day, not am i always on a sugar rush, it’s also getting expensive!!!
