You say you are broke

Do you still manage to squeeze in your daily fix or two of Timmie's? 'Yeah', you reply. 'It's cheap. I need my morning fix.'
But is it really? How many who are reading this go to Tim Horton's once, twice even three times?
Have you ever stopped I mean REALLY STOPPED to add up the cost for your love of Timmie's? 'Yeah. But it's only $1.75! I don't buy anything else', you protest.
Let's add up your daily cost of Timmie's. $1.75 x 3 (you drink coffee with each break). You are spending $5.75 plus tax each day.
Wait! You smoke too? Add in another $15 to your daily spending. There. $20.75 spent. ($5.75 + $15.00)
'I smoke a pack a day but I really don't inhale so you can't it as smoking!'
Hmmm. You say you smoke a pack each day? How do you afford it? I mean coffee is coffee but adding in 26 ciggies daily to the mix THAT'S an addiction!
For the entire month on smokes you spent: $15/day (single pack of smokes, 30 days in the month) = $450.00
Let's add in Timmie's now: $5.25 (three double double each day ($1.75 each), 30 days in the month) = $157.50. Tax not included.
Total for both: $450.00 + $157.50 = $607.50.
Now you ARE broke. Still wanna go for a Timmie?
