Do you have any tips or tricks for saving money during the week? I've been making my coffee at home (Porto Rico Importing Company - yum) and don't really go out for drinks unless it's happy hour. I could use some more recommendations for healthy Financial District cheap lunches, though (I consider cheap below $7). Right now my rotation mainly consists of Soup Co and Harvest and Rowe.

I've been more fiscally responsible by bringing my lunch more! I'm also trying to shop and eat less wastefully. I'd rather cut back on quanitity then quality.
