Forget saving money on gas and take-out lunches at the office. Americans on average are spending more money working from home than they were commuting to the office before shelter-in-place rules closed most offices.

Modest savings on gas and restaurant meals are more than offset for the average employee who’s able to work remotely by higher spending on groceries and utilities, according to a new survey from CreditCards.com. Nationally, people are saving about $27 a month on restaurants and takeout, $33 on gas and public transit and $34 on childcare. But that hardly makes up for the extra $121 they’re spending on utilities and an extra $182 on groceries.
