[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a weird thread. If we're en route to school or an early morning swim meet and I do a Starbucks mobile order for a giant plain coffee, I do not also get something for my elementary schooler, unless that was the plan for her breakfast. I promise you she does not care. If I were going at a random time of day for something "fun" with her in my company, it would again be part of a plan ("let's get a treat - want something from Starbucks?").[/quote]

I don't happen to drink coffee.  But I can't really fathom why, if you're leaving directly from your house to go somewhere, you wouldn't just take a coffee with you.  It's faster, cheaper, better for the environment.

I can get that sometimes when you've been out from hours, or when your day has been stretched by things you didn't anticipate, it's nice to stop, maybe sit down for a minute, use a bathroom, buy a treat.  But in that case, my kid deserves to stop, and sit down, use a bathroom, and buy a treat.

But Starbucks in the morning every day, that isn't something I can't understand modeling for my kids.

But maybe I am missing something and Starbucks black drip coffee tastes way better than homemade or something?[/quote]

It doesn’t. I also don’t understand people who get daily drip from Starbucks. It’s not good coffee, so I assume they have really basic taste buds. [/quote]
