okay, starbucks, you’ve finally done it. you have pi**ed me off. first, you now have the clover and are charging $2.45 for coffee. second, your coffee doesn’t taste better in the clover. third, you don’t do free refills on the overpriced, sh**ty clover coffee. fourth, you don’t brew decaf in the evening. (wtf?!? who doesn’t brew decaf in the evening?!?) fifth, you couldn’t offer me anything except decaf coffee from the clover and charged me $1.75 instead of the $1.40 i was expecting to pay. the only redeeming part of my visit was the tasty pumpkin bread. but i’ve been hunting down more carbs since i finished my bread to soak up all the acidic coffee. blecch.

so i won’t reload my card. it’s not worth the free drink after 10 and the free drink on my birthday. screw your free drink. i will learn to brew coffee for myself before i leave the house (cheaper, tastier). i will make toddy to reduce my caffeine. perhaps i’ll drink more tea. i will not feel quite so guilty about going to places like espresso profeta or, alternatively, getting coffee from subway.
