5/5 smoke d. 1 year ago on Google
I
absolutely
love
💖
coffee
and
I
have
definitely
spent
way
more
than
my
fair
share
of
funds
into
the
Starbucks
blackhole
lolz
😆.
I
typically
spend
anywhere
from
$12-$30/day
here.
It
seems
though
as
funds
go
up,
some
things
that
used
to
be
"normal"
for
Starbucks
customer
service
are
now
non-existent.
It's
the
small
things:
no
more
tabs
to
cover
hot
coffee;
bags
are
15¢;
even
though
dining
areas
have
been
outside
for
quite
some
time
now,
Starbucks
has
not
put
out
any
tables
and
chairs
outside;
seasonal
favorites
have
been
missing
(turkey
cranberry
panini
2
yrs
in
a
row);
no
vanilla
powder
-
alot
of
your
signature
drinks
are
made
with
vanilla
powder!!!!;
upside
down
is
no
longer
available
for
caramel
macchiatos?.
The
list
goes
on,
I've
started
to
add
caramel
and
vanilla
powder
to
my
drinks
at
home,
but
I'm
paying
more
for
Starbucks
to
add
to
it
and
make
it
at
home?!?!
What
sense
does
that
make?
Pretty
soon,
especially
with
these
times
of
inflation...
Once
my
balance
goes
down,
I
may
just
use
up
all
my
✨✨✨✨
stars
and
just
start
using
a
Keurig.
I
just
tried
a
Ghirardelli
caramel
macchiato
on
my
Keurig
and
it
tasted
really,
really
fabulous
AND
at
half
the
price.
So,
while,
Starbucks
does
still
have
some
great
food
and
service
at
times,
corporate
needs
to
step
it
up
or
they
will
most
likely
start
losing
some
of
their
most
long
time
loyal
consumers.
