Average Worker Spends $276 a Month to Go to Work

How much money do you spend to go to work? You usually think of your job as a source of income, rather than a drain.

But a new career builder study finds the average worker spends $276 dollars a month to go to work. That's $3300 a year.

Nearly half of those surveyed spend at least $250 a year on clothes for work.

More than 30 percent of people who need daycare spend at least $500 a month.

Employees could spend up to 50 dollars a week on buying lunch at work, and even coffee adds up too.  About one out of four workers who buy coffee spend up to $25 a week.
