heres an excerpt from someone's post that i agree with.........
Quote:
Call me boring. Call me traditional. But I like a regular cup of coffee (which Starbucks does sell). Does that Organic Sumatra-Peru Blend taste great? Probably. Is it worth four bucks? Maybe once in a while.
And while the puns are potentially endless on this post (Starbuck-less. Falling Starbucks. Better latte, then never), what's not funny is the fallout from the current economic woes.
Suddenly, there's competition for those barely above minimum wage fast food, retail, and low-skill factory jobs. And the people competing for those jobs may be folks whose white-collar job is gone, and they need something - anything - to get by.

so my thing is this.....why spend $6 on coffee when you can go to 7 eleven and pay 80 cents. it never made sense to me. but hey, it ain't my money. that's why i make my own coffee in the grey plug in old-fashion coffee maker, you know the one made back in the day, the one without coffee filter....nothing like coffee at 5:00 in the morning.
