Although its trendy to hate Starbucks they do have pretty good coffee for a large chain provided you like dark-roast or at least potent brew. (anything other then standard brewed coffee not so much IMO)

Also at least in my area the price is within 15-20 cents of Dunkin as well ... having said that when I buy coffee on the road its $1 Cumberland farms whenever possible cheapskate that I am! :p


Edit: For those not familiar with Connecticut/New England Cumberland Farms = Circle K, 7-11, Krausers, Wawa etc

What a load of unsubstantiated horse shit.

Love the sinister, foreboding soundtrack.

I'm cool with Starbucks. I don't like paying their prices, but I don't like paying anyone's prices. I can make a couple pots of coffee for the cost of even cheap counter brew. But it's alright when I want coffee, and don't have my own.

yeah, Dark5 is just another crappy youtube top5er of nonsense. There are a whole slew of them on youtube - top5, top10, top20 etc... and most just have loads of crap about aliens, conspiracy theories and all sorts of gibberish.

But it's interesting none the less. I keep an open mind and consider all possibilities.

Nothing wrong with that; however when you turn around and post it like you believe it to be true, you risk having others think you might be a bit naive.

I don't really get the hate for Starbuck prices. A 20oz for me is $1.90 - $2.12 depending on the store I get it from. And the $2.12 one lets me get a refill for $.50 later in the day. That's pretty much in line with about any coffee short of battery acid shit at the gas station.

As for the OP...drink less, go to bed earlier, and back away from the fringey and cringey youtube videos.

I don't care for coffee, so I just consider it extra savings compared to people who feel the need to buy one or more cups a day.

I'm going to not buy a football team and use the money I saved to buy a baseball team.
