Question 7
Micro-habits are powerful. A "daily splurge" can seem harmless — one specialty coffee or impulse treat — yet frequency turns small amounts into real monthly budget hits. If you grab a $20 impulse buy five times a week and assume four weeks in a budgeting month, the monthly total quickly becomes non-trivial. When consumers map habitual impulses to a monthly line item, they often choose cheaper alternatives or set a weekly "fun money" cap. This question asks you to translate a habitual impulse behavior into a monthly dollar impact using simple multiplication and a 4-week month assumption.
If you buy one $20 impulse purchase 5 times per week, what's the monthly cost (4-week month)?
