I do like my weekly Starbucks on the way to look after my
granddaughter. Glad it seems to have finally dawned on them that if
they are going to charge that kind of price for coffee, it had darn
well be exactly as ordered, served quickly and with a little luck
cheerfully. Otherwise we can get very nearly the same thing at any
truck stop.

That's about as often as I order Starbucks, unless it's during the
Fall. And then I'll make daily and sometimes twice daily trips to ALL
the cafes in search of that wonderful seasonal pumpkin flavored coffee.
(with caramel please!)

I agree with everybody. Sbucks is overpriced but we don't really have a
coffee cafe that's convienent other than Joe's at Books a Million. And
Joe's locally always hires the idiots it seems.

I've been looking at one of those nice espresso machines for a couple
years now. But I haven't gotten over the idea of paying $300 or more
for one. But really that's only 60 Starbucks Venti Triple Shot Caramel
Macchiatos with whole milk please.
