The day I figured out I was buying lunch every single workday

So I was looking at my bank statements last month trying to figure out why my savings account wasn't growing at all. I live in Portland and I work downtown, so I'd grab a sandwich or a bowl from the food carts near my office almost every day. I sat down and added it up, and I was spending about $12 a day, 5 days a week, which comes to $240 a month just on lunch. That's almost $3,000 a year for food I barely even remembered eating. I started packing my own lunch 3 days a week and already saved $80 this month alone. Has anyone else had a similar "why didn't I see this sooner" moment with a daily spending habit?
