So I used a prepaid card for a month to see where my money was really going, and the results were kinda scary

Honestly thought I was pretty good with money until I tried that. Seeing how much went to random food delivery and little online purchases was a real wake up call. Like, I spent more on coffee last month than my electric bill. Makes you actually stop and think before swiping.

Right? The "more on coffee than my electric bill" part hit me. I did the same thing and my biggest leak was those "just one click" phone game purchases. Felt like a genius until I saw a $40 charge for virtual gems that I don't even remember buying.

Wait, you spent FORTY DOLLARS on phone game gems without even remembering? How does that even happen, like did you buy them in your sleep? Those games are designed to trick you, it's so sneaky. I would be checking my bank statement every single day after that.
