Starbucks doesn't make enough money

Posted 15 years ago by Evan Tishuk

Starbucks to jack-up prices on already shamefully overpriced low-quality coffee. Coffee aside, I wonder how they sleep at night.

If it was between buying a Mac or drinking a cup of Starbucks, which would it be?

Can I do both and then pour the Starbucks onto the Mac?

Pouring can be messy. The proper continental way to add flavor your Mac is actually to DUNK it in your Starbucks coffee before taking a bite.

Who needs to sleep?

I am reading a book written by the Chairman/founder of Starbucks. It's a mildly interesting read that says it won't but ends up dealing a LOT with just company history. I'd never had Starbucks prior to reading this book so I tried it out. As a suburbanite I'm looking forward to trying their different flavors at the Woodruff Rd location to see if any of it is worth it.

My point of this post is twofold: #1 I've been drinking beer all day and not Starbucks so I'm trying to bring my thoughts into coherant sentences and back to earth. Go Tigers. #2 - Why the post for $.05? I think you guys like something about Starbucks secretly.

And I like CU much better.

I like Starbucks shrewd business tactics and capitalist drive; they're good at that. They are not however the best (or even passable) coffee shop in the land.
