Does anyone actually get Starbucks every day?

Anonymous
I buy coffee out (not always Starbucks) probably 4x/week, and historically I buy my lunch probably 3-4x week too. I'm trying to pay down a credit card right now so I'm bringing lunch more often. But I love my coffee habit and won't stop buying it completely.

My boss's wife spends at least 25$ a day, every day at Starbucks. I know for a fact she goes three times a day. She gets them for her husband and employees as well. They know her so well that they just make her drink when she walks in. That 700$ a month just at Starbucks. WOW!!

I go in phases. I will get it everyday or I'll get it once a week. I get a trenta unsweetened iced green tea and it lasts me for a long while during work. It costs $3.45. I don't love the habit, but I bring lunch everyday so it fits into my budget.

Never mind the money, who has the time to go in (or wait in the drive thru) before work? It's so much faster at home! I need 15 more minutes of sleep more than I need Starbucks!

I get coffee at Starbucks or Peet's about 3 times a week. But I just drink regular coffee (tall or grade pike place) and never espresso or other drinks. If I am traveling, like the other poster, I get it daily and expense it.

Green tea is so cheap!! Brew a pitcher of hot water with 4-5 tea bags then put in fridge. Pennies!

If you work downtown there's probably one downstairs, or next door. There are so many, doesn't take long at all.

I buy lunch everyday. This is not odd. This is why many office buildings have cafeterias.

I spend between $* and $12 a day on lunch.

I buy breakfast ($5) and lunch ($8) every day I'm in the office, which is 4 days a week. So about $200 a month.

My coworker buys breakfast about 3-4 times a week, lunch 5 days a week then complains to me that she can't lose weight and/or can't pay such and such bill. I just say "you should cut down on buying breakfast/lunch everday."

I can't afford to buy lunch everday. I don't eat breakfast.

Peet's is SO much better.

I buy a tea every morning and get refills for free. I figure $3 a day isn't that much of a splurge.
