I like McDonald's coffee, and Folgers Instant, but then again, I am a real connoisseur of the bean!

Yes indeed. And what a joy it was driving that road back in the day. And to think some folks would wave at you.

I believe without WiFi their registers, which are tied to the inventory, credit card readers, etc won’t work. I don’t think in today’s world, stores can’t temporarily go to tried and true paper and pencils. Who would do the math?😀.

We make Publix Greenwise coffee at home.

My favorite Starbucks drink is their iced shaken green tea.

What's over priced at Starbucks is those fancy lattes, cappuccinos and other sweet drinks. Their good old black coffee no sugar is in line with every other coffee shop including Dunkin. I buy Starbucks dark roast for home and have for years. About 1% of the time I stop at a Starbucks shop. So far as the burnt taste all I can say is not everyone likes that variety. After all not many like a straight shot of whiskey but prefer a mellow tasting cocktail, beer or wine. My late dad use to say there's a arse for every seat, same for coffee.

I like the panini sandwiches at Starbucks. I earn "mypoints" credits and other sorts of credits from various rewards/survey programs. Sometimes I toss the reward into my Starbucks account, and go over for a sandwich that day. Once in a blue moon if I'm out for a day-trip and just want to relax somewhere between spots, I'll get their Pike Place with room for half and half, and dump in some cocoa powder and a little sugar to make myself a cafe mocha. Otherwise you have to pay them extra to make it for you. I generally don't ever actually pay for Starbucks out of pocket, I use earned credits.

I usually only drink one cup of coffee every day and that's my morning cappuccino made (usually) with Cafe Bustelo or Pilon when I can find it on sale. I use a Keurig Cafe, with a metal filter and normal brick of ground espresso beans.

No, they always used to have a tin of it next to the tin of cinnamon, where you add your own milk and other fixins.

There was cinnamon, and cocoa, and nutmeg.

McD has better tasting coffee, much lower prices, and usually faster service
