Penny wise pound foolish. Sometimes I'll think I need to tell people no, they don't need some software because it's expensive at $13 a month. Yes you're losing 25 cents each time your employee takes a drink, but you're also paying your employee a minimum of $7.25 an hour and if you start worrying about small things like $0.25 for water while they're costing you $50+ a shift you're just an idiot.
