If you have been there before and you still can’t order a coffee correctly, i mean it’s right on the menu board. Then maybe it you that is the problem. They only list 1 size on the menu board - Grande. Which is their Medium. you remembered it was a venti in your post, you should be able to remember it when you order a drink. I remembered it because i had just got back from there. A year from now on my next trip I will have forgotten. Have to reserve brain space for important stuff.

This thread cause me to ask the wife about my 16 year daugthers daily trips there...
I said I am pretty sure she spends more there than she can afford, because its daily...
But wait, we have an app...and they share this app...that you can pay for, I am paying out the A for Starbucks and I just found out...
Im getting hammered at this place monthly, I know they both go everyday
Gotta pick ur battles around here, I swear...I haven't mouthed off just yet...it is Christmas still Apps with your credit card saved are even worse than a credit card in general. Not only do you lose the sense of spending real $, you now have push notifications, offers, loyalty all screaming at you to spend that fake money.

IDK, what I do know is the daughter makes $800 a month as a 16 year old and I make her pay her $500 a month car payment.... I do know as soon as I started investigating the wife said she wanted to replace our 3 year old washer and dryer and if I didn't believe her I could try doing laundry myself...I think they're in on this scam together Im gonna do some Zupruder film study on this bs and ill bet her washer and dryer are fine as long as I don't mention the Starbucks bs again...

I didn't mention earlier, but on top of new washer and dryer was patio furniture that she claims is bad or don't like...
Starbucks must be good is all I can say
Hmmm, I'm either gonna get the SB gouging or a new washer/dryer, patio furniture set we don't need
Lovely

You must have a room full of 250+ inch deer in your trophy room. Nope but gas, corn, taxidermy, guns, ammo, lease and all the other stuff gets expensive fast. Plus I’m a volunteer guide on Ft Hood and then quit supplying us with wood, nails, screws or anything else so now I maintain 15 stands a year out of pocket. Biggest WT I’ve ever killed is 140” and biggest mule deer 192.

The real question here is why would anyone get contentious with an hourly worker just trying to do their job behind the counter of a coffee shop or fast food place. As if they have any say in how the menu is written, or anything else for that matter.

I don't speak coffee shop so usually I just say "I'll take the largest cup of the blackest coffee you have" GIrls love that place so I go more than I'd like. Not going to lie either, I have acquired a taste for chai latte's.
Shoot. Eat. Repeat.

Once you consider all expenses included in hunting especially if you have a lease to travel to and feed. Killing a deer and having it processed is prob the cheapest part lol.

If you spend money there then its all about your ego, your pride, your image.
It ain't about the coffee.
I can brew you a whole pot of really strong coffee for 25 cents.
You go to that place so you can be like the clowns on TV.
You have fallen victim to advertising.

Coffee is for women.
Real men slam a Bang then tough out the subsequent heart attack
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

never drank coffee, never will
don't like the flavor, don't like what it has become as far a as a status symbol and political symbol...its just a friggin drink that gives caffeine. much better ways to get caffeine than foul tasting bitter coffee.
Some of you all need to try some Dr Pepper Zero...give you your caffeine fix and tastes a whole heck of lot better than any coffee
