If you're ordering anything from starbucks you surrender any right to give advice about coffee drinking. Just buy some whole beans and a grinder you will save multiple :10bux: per month if you're even a moderate drinker.

Oh give me a break. I use a French press and a burr grinder and proper temperature and ratios at home, but unless you're a useless shut in there are occasions where you might want a coffee when you're not at home.

Exactly. The other day, the wife and I went into town to take care of a few things and she had the nerve to want a cup of coffee. I told her that she should just wait a few hours til we got home. What a big baby!

So they're already out of the house on the way to work and they should wait until they get home? Well you're right they'll save money if their first coffee is when they get home after work. Yes, quite obvious.

E: so obvious it's almost a lifehack.

Excuse you, but not all of us have the time in our busy morning routine to fill a water tank, scoop grounds, turn on the machine, get dressed and showered, then pour our own coffee before going to our very important workplace. It's much easier to drive ten minutes out of the and wait another ten minutes to have somebody else make it for me so I can pay them five dollars a day for the rest of my life

No matter the make or price range, all coffee machines turn into leaky garbage compactors upon entering the premises of a workplace. All coffee beans turn into dust and regret crossing that same threshold. Water heats wrong in such devices and takes on the texture of fetid swampwater unfit even for the preparation of tea. Residual "white" unerringly befouls the hosing and subsequently served drinks. Residual soup base befouls the "white". All who partake cringe and swallow, for their need is paramount. #Lifehack

Some of their drinks do cost 5 bucks, though?

Admittedly you'd probably die of diabeetus before your home coffee machine started saving you money if you were drinking one of those every day.

Sorry if that's what it came across as, but when people are talking about $5 drinks, they aren't talking about coffee - they're talking about lattes, which most people don't have all the tools to make at home. Posting about it is sort of pointless unless you make that connection.

I also got paid a garbage wage to work at a Starbucks for 3 months and suddenly find myself defending it years later like an idiot, so there you go.
