Lol for Starbucks $5 is nothing.
This is why I prefer soda for my caffeine. $3 gets me a 12 pack of cans. -
@Null-Device I drink Pepsi 0. Supposedly has 0 sugar and has 2x the caffeine as a result. Fucking awesome stuff.

@sharktits @jhh2450 Oh I see you're rich! Donate money to bank account 1235678909864

@localjoost Far from it pal. But Starbucks is a high quality coffee shop and getting a cup for $5 from there is cheap. I've seen friends leave there with a $10 cup of coffee before.

Where I live they have this cool promotion, a coffee and a donut for $1.5 cents it's cool because the barista gifted me this member card and after N stars I get a free meal or a free coffee.
I enjoy it, it's about the same price as the campus coffee but it's better, they have better internet, ac and comfy chairs so it's my default place to go study between classes. -
I prefer G-Fuel...
About the same caffeine, $30 per tub (tho $40 when including shipping...) which gives you about 40-50 servings...
Also, tastes a lot better imo (I dun like coffee) -
Arro2507yPretty sure at 5$ for a coffee you already got fucked. Hopefully they took you out for dinner first

Root825407y@Null-Device I'm American, but before I saw a "guide to coffee types" chart on Tumblr, I had never even heard of Americanos. I've also never, ever heard someone order one before, nor seen them on a menu. Ever.
According to a barista friend, they are on Starbucks' menu, but people almost never order them (2-3 sold in over six months) -
@Root Americanos have a very interesting story. apparently, 2id soldiers stationed in France where 2ID was born(second to none!! HOOAH!) would water down the French coffee with hot water, thus they started to call that style Americanos.

Qwby4167y@localjoost for that money, you better enjoy your Starbucks coffee at least 4 times as much as a regular cup of coffee.
-
Nothing beats an Italian coffee. I don't see the point of going to Starbucks when there's much better than that.
-
adxm1717ySomeone up there said that Starbucks is a high quality coffee shop. Well let me tell you my friend, it's high prices but you definitely didn't taste a quality cup of coffee before in your life.

20 cents for the best espresso in the world on every street corner in Bulgaria.
20 cents and it's fucking delicious. -
bahua129047yThe vast majority of the, "coffee" people get at Starbucks is so sugared and creamed up that they're basically just getting a $7 hot milkshake.

Back in college me and my group of 4 drove 20 minutes to a Starbucks on a promotion giving free black coffee. We went there ordered the free coffee and nothing else. Stayed there for a while enjoying the aesthetics of the location and left.

waruj1m897yI went for an Nespresso machine while living in Hong Kong, the coffee shops all consider Starbucks and their extortionate prices as the MacDonald’s of coffee and charge accordingly. The cheapest option was to drop a few hundred dollars on a machine and pump out coffees at home. A Home office helps I guess!

And they don't get the fucking concept of someone wanting 'a coffee'
My first experience:
Me: hi I'd like a coffee please!
Cashier: what kind of coffee do you want?
Me: just a coffee!
Cashier: yeah but what kinda coffee?
Me: just coffee?!
Cashier: yeah but like with caramel or something etc?
Me: no, just COFFEE
Cashier: milk or sugar?
Me: no I just want a coffee!!!
Cashier: so you mean like without anything like caramel?
Me: yes!?!
Cashier: Wait so no latte?
Me: NO JUST A COFFEE!!! BLACK COFFEE.
HOW FREAKING HARD CAN THE WORD 'COFFEE' BE?! -
GeaRSiX6477yI'm a pretentious shit that enjoys locals. They're cheaper and they understand what a 'coffee' is. See @linuxxx
