While I do enjoy getting a latte as a treat, I admit that in the last 6 months I have greatly reduced my trips there. I've been talking myself out of going and instead making coffee at home. Starbucks is definitely expensive.
Well I’m not a coffee drinker but I’m still at Starbucks 3 days a week lol. I take the kids there and they love the breakfast sandwiches and refreshers. But I don’t let them get the ones full of sugar lol
You go to Starbucks for the atmosphere and name. I could never justify paying $7-$8 for a cup of coffee. My hubby just makes his own cappuccino at home.
Starbucks has the brand. It will always be around. Eventually I think they will lower prices and get into a price war with other companies It wouldn’t surprise me to bring back Schulz!.
Several times a week I do need to find a place to park myself at a cafe and work remotely. But I usually choose Panera over Starbucks.
I've had to really cut back. I'm in the worst of it budget-wise now; things should get better next May when my daughter graduates from high school. But right now, I have to pay not only child support, but also doggy day care and several times a week a driver for my daughter.
