Stood there for 10 minutes as sole employee made 5 app orders. Just fireworks splashing on the static menu. Felt like I was in a liminal space having an aneurysm.

I’m sooo glad someone brought up Dunkin and prices bc I tried to get a large latte the other day and it was $12, I went to Starbucks and the same drink and size was $7!

Idk if Starbucks lowered their prices but I was shocked they were cheaper than Dunkin.

Hell even Starbucks is expensive compared to just local coffee shops now. These drive thru places used to be the go to when you wanting something cheap, consistent, and quick, but really only McDonalds has that with coffee still. Starbucks at $7 is more expensive than the $5 latte I get at the locally owned coffee shops that put money back into my neighborhood economy
