What is Coffee Savings and Why Should You Care?

Coffee Savings is the potential amount you save by choosing to make your own coffee instead of buying it from a coffee shop.

Formula

$$\text{Coffee Savings} = (\text{Cups per Bag} \times \text{Store Price}) - \text{Bag Cost}$$

Where:

  • Cups per Bag is the number of cups you can brew from a single bag of coffee
  • Bag Cost is the amount you spend on one bag of coffee
  • Store Price is how much you usually pay for a cup of coffee at your favorite cafe

Calculation Example

  • Number of cups made per bag of coffee: 25
  • Cost of one bag of coffee: $18
  • Cost of one coffee at the store: $3

$$\text{Coffee Savings} = (25 \times 3) - 18 = 75 - 18 = 57$$

You save $57 by making your coffee at home instead of buying it from the store.
