The Olive Savings Method

"By removing the olives from the salad, AA was able to serve a salad with four ingredients rather than five, which saved them roughly $500,000 per year... I like to extend this savings trick to virtually everything I buy... While I was waiting in line I wasn’t allowing myself to get distracted by the “shiny objects” they strategically place within arms reach in hopes you’ll buy an extra item (which is the exact opposite of the olive method by the way). No, I was busy trying to decide which item was going to be my olive. The one that I was going to cut out from my purchase."
