Default Loosing antifreeze... Why?

I havn't had any real problems with my radiator... But recently i noticed that i've been losing antifreeze pretty fast. I figure i should probably just get a new one but is there any quick solutions? Like i said, no real problems... It's just pretty annoying to look in and not see any antifreeze...
Thanks for any suggestions.

have you seen any fluid on the ground when you back out of spaces?

best case scenerio, you have a leaky hose. worst case scenerio, you have a bad head gasket.

how much would you say you are filling your radiator a day?

Don't really fill it every day... Probably just 1-2 times a week. Just seems like a little too much.
