I drank a lot of sweet tea and mountain dew in high school and occasionally coffee, then switched to energy drinks in college. Until I did the math on the energy drinks and bought a Keurig, which is convenient enough that I stopped my daily energy drink habit and saved a ton of money. Are there cheaper ways to get caffeine? Yes. Will my sleep disordered ass use any of them? No.
So post was actually inspired by a guy who was a rep for gas stations, so spent his day driving from gas station to gas station to like take inventory, make orders, and what not.
Where at each gas he would buy a single energy drink for like 5 a day.
Buying energy drinks exclusively from gas stations has to be the least cost effective way to get caffeine.
So while your coffee machine isn't the cheapest... by the stars you're miles ahead of that guy.
You can buy a tub of coffee for $10 that will last you several months.
