For example, my local context has coffee-shops where you can get good coffee at a much cheaper price. No aircon or pushy chairs though. There are cheaper alternatives to good coffee.

Their drip coffee is awful. I ordered a large one at an airport once and I threw it away. It was that bad. I love their specialty drinks though. Peppermint mochas are great with low-fat milk and no whipped cream. It is a nice treat once in awhile! :) Agreed. Their drip coffee is awful.

However, I won't go into a Starbucks to buy a drink unless I have gift cards from someone. There's one 2 blocks from our house and the only time I've been in there was when I locked myself out of my house the first week we moved in and had to wait for my wife for 2 hours to get me back in! I have purchased a frappucino at our employer's snack shop a couple times since last summer, but we've moved to a new location and it's not nearly as convenient. Plus, I just don't carry cash for the simple reason that it's too easy for me to spend it on these little things that I don't need.

How can you say that about Starbucks! haha, starbucks is my favorite place for specialty drinks, I don't drink coffee, but their frappucinos are amazing! You need to give them another chance and actually buy a real drink, not just coffee. Grab a caramel frappucino during the summer, the rest will speak for itself! O no!

Because every single celeb picture you see has a starbucks logo on it. Why everyone think it’s gourmet coffee? Because every single celeb picture you see has a starbucks logo on it.
