I already pay enough for my ice venti non-fat chai, to which I am hopelessly addicted. No way any I want any wobblies in there messing with it.

Two words, Dunkin Donuts.

Starbucks products are already priced too high. Although I like the taste of the products, my digestive tract goes ballistic when exposed to fresh milk. That leaves the tea offerings. Frankly, I can do without it altogether. All the sugar added just adds more to the spare tire around my middle. No way would I pay even more to support union labor. The day they go union will be the end of my patronage.

I still manage to enjoy a good cup of coffee with a Phillips Senseo brewing machine and pods filled with Columbian roast/Hazelnut flavor. A little whipping cream and some artificial sweetener and I'm just as satisfied as a Starbucks customer. I get 20 cups of coffee from a bag of pods and they cost me $3.99. The cup is ready 60 seconds after I decide I want a fresh cup. No time in line and no gasoline burned. Tossing the pod in the trash takes 5 seconds. Much faster than the 5 minute cleanup job on the espresso machine.

Never understood the mindset that would pay $5.00 for a coffee.
