Convenience store coffee is better than Starbucks, and a lot less expensive.
The fact that folks actually line up for this over-priced swill is astounding.
Same people who stand in line for Apple products (duck).

Actually MacDonalds is way better.
Also have you tried Taco Bell’s coffee? It is really good! It has cinnamon in it, cost about $3.00 where I live but comes in a rather large cup. I saw it on the menu so thought I’d give it a try. Was worth it.

It is, but brillant how the company figured out how to add cachet to a simple cup of coffee. The brand loyalty, despite the price, is something to behold.
That said, its interesting to watch the woke employees turn against the woke company.
My first awareness of Starbucks years ago, was hearing that yuppies go there.
I don’t know if that stereotype still holds true.
But if Starbucks had a reputation as a place for upscale people to go, that could explain why so many are willing to go there, and pay more for a product they could get for Less elsewhere.
