$8.25 for a Starbucks? Man, it's like £3.55-£4 here in UK.
Depends on the drink. Get a super-frappa-extrashot-sugar bomb and yeah, it’ll be $8-9 easy. A regular medium coffee is $3 or so.
Depends on location too. I live in Seattle, I don't know the last time I've seen a cup for less than $6 on anything other than drip
I've got a whole 0.5kg bag of coffee for that much in Germany, and that'll last me almost a month (~25 cups). What's so good about Starbucks that it costs as much per cup?
Nothing really. I just can't make that when traveling. Unfortunately when out and about in the UK you either have Costa, Starbucks or Nero around the same price or McDonald's and Greggs which is cheaper. It's very hard to find any local coffee shops.
