Tim hortons charge like 79 cent for small one and 1.50 for big one (canadian)

I don't like starbucks either btw ...

Never had a starbucks before, I guess i must be 1 in about 10 in the entire world

I had Starbucks for the first time a few weeks ago and I was thinking, "Damn, the prices here are INSANE!" But the iced coffee I had was so good, I thought, okay, I guess I can pay this occasionally. But I now that they raised prices, I guess that first time I had Starbucks will be the last time!

Woohoo! Eating gen-u-ine Eye-talian! :)

Waffle houses are the best. I always totally overtip the waitresses - that has to be one of the toughest jobs :(

I buy a pound of the good stuff for $10 and it lasts for the week. I was developing a 4 cup a day Starbucks habit. It was getting crazy.

Isn't that crazy? I always hear webmasters bitching that you can't charge more than $20 a month for an amateur site even with live cam shows every week. Hell, it's less than a coffee at Starbucks for live interactive porn every week! LOL

Is there something wrong with this at all?
Gas prices have risen a great deal, so shipping prices have went up and stayed up. In return they pass this on to the customers in order to keep the profit margin good for the stock holders.
Will the customers really care? Seriously doubtfull. At first they may bitch a little bit, and the haters will have another reason to hate them. Fact of the matter is shortly nobody will care and the customers will be back to buying as ussual. These consumers are branded and set in their ways, they are not going to spend the extra time making their own.

The price of lettuce has also skyrocketed. Well more than 5% I might add. Is anyone who was using lettuce going to stop due to the price increase, or is this more of a "lets hate profitable companies" ordeal.

Starbucks for the most part changed the coffee industy and buying habbits of America. Before it was regular or decafe and that is about it. They siezed the market and convienced people to pay 3.00+ for something most were used to paying .50 for. They should be saluted by us capitalists.

Thats a very good point :1orglaugh
That can be the new pitch on the tour. Less than 5 cups of Starbucks a month.

No Shit... Good point!! :thumbsup

50 starbucks

Keep charging more, I like that.

Law of supply and demand! Bad news for Starbucks fanatic! :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I got a tall caramel macchiato (smaller than a grande) this morning and it came out to $5.45. But here in Hawaii everything costs more. :2 cents:

i'll make my own then
