Or of course, you could fund the GC with the amount your budget allocates for coffee. ;) It's an idea I need to toy with.

I'm not a huge fan of using a cash/envelope system as I like to track my spending and cash can be spent easily. This is similar but keeps everything electronic! I like the gift card idea.

There are several websites out there where you can get gift cards at a discount (a % off). You could also purchase the gift cards from eBay where you can save a few dollars off of the actual value of the card.
