Agreed but 12 for $9.95 is pretty high. That means .83 for a 8oz cup, when at Wawa I can get a 24 oz cup brewed for like $1.50. I know it is the convenice and all but still that is steep.

These are the same people spending $4.00 for 16oz of coffee but bitched about gas a $4.00 and they tast about the same.

$0.83 a cup and you STILL have to brew it yourself? That's steep.


I don't care what Starbucks charges, if they can get people to pay it, good job on their part, that's capitalism at its best.

I just don't like the taste of their coffee. I brew my own coffee at home. For a long time, I had a Gevalia subscription...good stuff. Now I'm content with my Maxwell House.

Yeah imagine spending that twice a day. What a waste. I don't mind Starbucks but not on a regular basis.

Re: Starbucks VIA

Actually thier "brew of the day" for a large is like just under two bucks, at least in my parts. Of course if you get a fancy doda coffee then you are dropping a Lincoln.

Dunkin Donuts or Wawa suit me fine or just plain old home brew. Actually the cheapest coffee around is if you drink the Office Coffee Club's brew but don't pay in but, I would never do that though. =)

Re: Starbucks VIA

I buy the 7 dollar 1lb bags of starbucks coffee at walmart/costco. It's the only coffee I drink. The old dealership I worked for in Leesburg gave it to customers and I got hooked. I only drink it on the weekends, or on really cold mornings when I have early work to do. I just got a coffee maker last year as a matter of fact.

Re: Starbucks VIA

My office orders Starbucks Breakfast Blend, and we go through 4-6 pots/day, as we share space with 2 other clients and people who work in the Frederick Telework Center.

At home, I usually get Maxwell House, unless we get coupons for Dunkin, Starbucks, or anything else worth its weight in beans. Although I see Wawa sells their grounds, and may have to pick some up next time I'm over there...

I think I can handle pouring some water in a mug and nuking it for 30 seconds.

Yeah it's not cheap and I really don't plan on drinking it all the time. My simple point was it's pretty tasty for an instant coffee.
