I spent $4.50 on a cup of coffee, which I don't normally do. After I drank it, a guy approached me with a camera crew and a microphone. He asked me if I enjoyed my coffee. I told him it was very good. It turns out that they swapped my normal Starbucks for Folgers instant!!!! I never would have believed it. It was really good coffee.

I hope they start serving it at Starbucks full time. I'd definitely pay $4.50 a cup if it's that good.
 
You were just caught up in the moment. How did they switch it? They infiltrated Starbucks? Several holes in your story.

several holes in the op's head for paying 4.50 for a cup of coffee. 😉
you can get a whole breakfast meal for that much.
 
Some things, I am just not sensitive enough to, to tell the difference. Coffee is not among those. Like many coffee lovers, I drink it black, and the difference in coffee is easily detectable. I would have involuntarily spit instant on the cashier the moment I sipped it.

This thread does have a Pizza Hut delivered the pasta vibe.
 
Seriously tho, the $4.50 is not for your regular black coffees, it's for the creative bullshit coffees with whipped cream and the like. Pretty sure Folgers doesn't make instant peppermint mochas with whipped cream and shots of expresso in them.

Your story is ass crack atm, fix it.

Either the regular Stabucks coffee is really bad or your tastebuds are dead.

I can't drink Starbucks. Too mellow.

The Christmas blend rocks...

I have yet to see a $4.50 cup of regular coffee at Starbucks. I think the most I have seen is about 2 bucks, I'm calling shens.
 
they did that to me too!

Except it wasn't Folgiers it was the local gas station and they put used motor oil in my cup. It tasted better than the Starbucks so now I just get my cup of used motor oil at the gas station every morning instead
 
there is so much fail in the OP's post. so a tall (large) cup of coffee is about $1.70 + tax. i don't see how you could spend $4.50 without dumping in tons of syrups. i highly doubt that the syrups are part of any folgers product. next, starbucks would never let a competitor film at their location or serve coffee at their location.
