All those stupid fucking names! Never went to one again. Similar experience for me. My wife spotted a Starbucks prior to the kid's volleyball tournament a couple years ago, and I was like, "Eh what the hell I'll give it a go." Like you, I asked for the regular ... and it was pure garbage. I don't mind strong coffee, but that shit was awful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't mind Caribou but around me we have Moka, it's decent. Much prefer Black Rifle from home pot though. Cheaper and tastes MUCH better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Food is still super cheap in Germany and throughout most of Europe and gas is on par with what it is in CA when it used to be nearly twice here. Since I am not moving, what is happening here is far worse than Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me ask again..... how many people I wonder exceed $275/month on their credit card with coffee purchases alone? Over what period of time? So far this year I am over that, but I replaced my 20 year old Quickmill with a new machine. Contemplating a new roaster as well which would really fuck the average in the short term. Long term though it does the opposite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
