Where Can You Find the Best Gas Station Coffee?

Lots of gas stations around. But do they have $1 large coffees?

Fruitland Park Cafe probably went under due to the heavy losses in the coffee column of the ledger.

I'm glad you finally realized that Publix has been GOUGING. Although there are some BOGO items beat Walmart prices.

If you just want one cup of coffee with your meal, most of these full service breakfast restaurants are a ripoff. You will pay about $3.50 for a cup of coffee, including tax and tip. And, the restaurant doesn't want you to know what you paid because many of them conveniently omit the beverage prices from the menu.

I can get that Starbuck's taste at home. I brew coffee (Folger's, Chock Fulla Nuts, 8:00, whatever brand you want). Then I leave it in the pot on the warmer for 3 days. After the bottom gets good and scorched, voilá, Starbucks black coffee.

Seriously this is a great deal if you live close and don't have to start your car
and use a golfcart every week.

I know a wealthy friend of mine that lives outside tv, starts his new Lexus up
every morning @ 6:00a.m. and drives to Panera for his free coffee, then again
in the p.m. for another cup.

Seems like a big expense and determination for a cup of coffee that he could make at home.

Many times, they said coffee prices increase with coffee bean prices.
But when prices go down for coffee beans, have you ever seen coffee drop in price??

French press, blue mountain, 2 drops of stevia, yeti tumbler out the door. $2.17

Cold brew blend of 3 dark roast cold brew beans, grind, wait 24 hours. Top with cold froth. $1.27

In a hurry Nespresso half cafe .95 with one espresso shot 1.25 Top with warm froth.

Travels only WaWa’s or Buccee’s.

If I am only drinking one cup of coffee 4 days a week it need to be good, cheap isn’t in the mix. Free coffee Tuesdays is back at WaWa’s

Yes. We order from Amazon and the price does fluctuate

$1.80/$2.30 for a regular or large to go at Waffle House is about as close as you'll find.

Best price is a refill at convenience store using my 30 oz travel cup but price for that is well over a buck.
