Starbucks is more expensive than gas
There is a Starbucks on the same block as my office and my parking garage. So every morning when I move my car into the garage, I stop by Starbucks for a chocolate donut.
One particular morning, I hadn’t gotten much sleep so I decided to waste my money on some coffee. So I look across the board and the cheapest thing I can find is for about $1.60. Now what can be the cheapest thing in a fancy coffee shop? REGULAR COFFEE. Keeping that thought in mind and the fact that 7-11 coffee is $1.29, I decided to order a “Solo Macchiato”.
Now first, I want you to take your mouse and compare it to your water/coffee cup sitting on your desk. Can you see why I am mad? A cup of coffee for $1.60 should be TALLER than my mouse!
After I open the lid, I find that this “cup” is only HALF FULL!
Wouldn’t you be mad too if you paid the price of “half a gallon of gas” to get a “pint of starbucks”?

Haha buddy, unfortunately I guess that’s how it works. Next time, try a double espresso…you’ll see. I’ve given up coffee though.
