Default Starbucks

Do you guys ever go there?

We now have about 4 of them where I live. Ive been there a few times, and recently went on Sunday w/ the gf. Two tall (or the biggest) drinks came out to be $9.20!!!! I know its expensive, hence why I dont go there but I dont think their stuff is all that great. She got the ginerbread mocha, and I got the peppermint something, both hot. Eh.

I like Bevande's Mochiatto and Gloria Jeans frozen anything. Yum. <---I got there about once a month...if that.

I used to go with my g/f but ever since we broke up I haven't been once....I only went because she wanted to go.... I think it's ridiculous paying that much for a drink!

I've been to Starbucks, but only when a Dunkin Donuts isn't close by.

I too agree with previous posters about the price of their coffee, and the "specialty" coffee list is too much for my old brain. Iwant plain old caffeinated coffee, cream and one equal!

Starbucks is ghey. Full of a bunch of tree huggin communist hippes. Iwill never pay that kind of money for a drink unless it has booze in it.
The coffee at work is free

Yeah some mornings coffee will make me sh** like a bull moose. It's a natural laxative you know.I usually only drink it in the winter too. Or if I really need a pick me up. Did anyone know that one cup of regular coffee actually has more caffene than a Red Bull?
The office coffee is actually really good.They bought some crazy machine with individual serving size "canisters" that you put in to make your own. They come in all diferent kinds of fru fruflavors like vanilla cream, mocha nut fudge, hazlenut, etc.. 99% of the time I get "Breakfast Blend" - plain old black coffee - no cream, no sugar.

*ROFL* at 00AccordLX, "...tree huggin communist hippes..." tell me how you really feel *L* If you think starbucks is expensive here you should see how much a coffee at Starbucks in Kuwait costs (and no I'm not joking, they really have it and they are REALLY expensive) It's like $7-$9 american for a double latte...

I drink black coffee ALL Day at work (until 6:00 pm) GREAT stuff

Holy crap man!!!!! If I did that, I'd be bouncing off the walls!!!! I mean, I'm hyper as hell as is and I don't drink coffee after lunch. In the office, I only drink capaccino ..... we have this rediculous commercial double-brew machine.
