+1 I agree man, they should lower their prices just a little, ever since the economy went downhill and Mcdonolds started serving expresso, it really hurt the starbucks on a massive scale, that should have been the sign to lower it a tad bit, but instead they decide to cut down on store that went making a big enough profit and reopen new ones in different locations lol...

Since I do have the card, it is a little cheaper.. 10% builds up in a week, and I get a free drink my choice every now and then.

McDonald's is hurting Starbucks

"Consumer Reports' "trained tasters" visited two stores of each company. McDonald's coffee was "decent and moderately strong," whereas Starbucks was "strong, but burnt and bitter enough to make your eyes water," the magazine said."

this was how it was like in the morning at the starbucks in front of my school, since it was smack down in the middle of downtown tacoma, there was always somebody grabbing like 4 boxes filled with individual orders for her co-workers I always felt sorry for her

Possibly the truest statement ever spoken. I hate Starbucks for this reason.

There's validity here. I drink McDonalds and think it's pretty good coffee. Yes, it could be stronger, but it's very smooth.

Whenever I go, it's usually a tall hazelnut mild with low fat milk.
In other cases, I'd get a grande Caramel Machiato, chilled passion fruit tea, hot chocolate.
