(This
review
has
been
edited
due
to
changes
in
the
location,
I
will
no
longer
be
tipping
here
because
I
am
allergic
to
all
forms
of
milk
except
for
whole
milk
when
i
ask
for
whole
milk
its
COLD
making
my
HOT
coffee
COLD...
when
i
ask
for
steamed
whole
milk
so
my
coffee
isnt
COLD
in
3
seconds
they
tell
me
there
is
a
charge
for
steamed
whole
milk....
this
is
a
scandal
in
my
opinion
because
whole
milk
is
free,
but
steamed
milk
isn't?
I
don't
get
it
the
problem
is
Ive
been
giving
this
store
35$
tips...
and
they
still
try
to
charge
me,
this
will
not
happen
ever
again
sorry
to
inform
this
starbucks
but
i
am
not
made
of
money...[If
i
spend
3.94
for
a
coffee
with
steamed
whole
milk
an
i
times
{x}
that
by
365
which
there
are
365
days
in
a
single
year
the
amount
i
spent
that
year
is
exactly
1,438.1,
and
if
I
add
a
35$
monthly
tip
to
that
the
amount
is
$2,698.¢1
annually
and
thats
just
me..
as
i
said
im
not
made
of
money
its
actually
opposite,
therefore
the
tip
amount
that
i
give
in
the
amount
of
$35.00
will
now
be
$0.00
because
I
have
to
use
that
money
now
to
buy
steamed
whole
milk
each
time
i
want
to
buy
a
coffee,
and
i
want
it
hot...
sorry
for
the
inconvenience
of
any
baristas
that
do
actually
deserve
those
tips...)
For
this
reason
the
rating
will
be
reduced
to
3
stars
until
this
sales
tactic
is
removed.
"Im
being
forced
to
withdrawal
my
tips,
due
to
a
tyrannical
sales
tactic
"
[TO
ADD:
Ive
called
the
distribution
company
Dean
Food
company/
Authers
Dairy
to
enquirer
the
amount
Starbucks
spends
on
whole
milk
a
single
Gallon
of
whole
milk
said
the
sales
representative
there
in
their
sales
department
off
an
invoice
for
the
delivery
of
a
single
delivery
and
supply
of
whole
milk,
the
price
is
$4.¢14
per
gallon
star
bucks
uses
about
roughly
18-20
gallons
of
whole
milk
per
day
4.14x20=82.8
per
day,
now
82.8x365=
this
location
spends
$30,222,¢00
yearly
on
whole
milk...
charge
$1.¢50
per
steam
milk
for
every
time
you
want
a
HOT
coffee
if
you
did
that
every
day
for
a
year
its
1.50x365=$547.¢5
yearly
to
add
to
your
average
coffee
which
is
$2.¢84
2.84x365=$1,036.¢6
add
the
yearly
steamed
milk
value
with
the
yearly
grande
cup
of
coffee
value
you
get
this
1036.6+547.5=$1,584.¢1
yearly
value.
Now
lets
look
at
the
profit
side
for
Starbucks
each
store
gets
about
750
customers
per
day
if
each
one
had
to
pay
1.50
for
steamed
whole
milk
which
not
every
body
will
get
steamed
whole
milk
the
company
will
average
sales
of
whole
milk
per
store
of
about
lets
be
generous
and
give
Starbucks
the
benefit
of
the
doubt
and
knock
that
750
number
in
half
we
know
more
then
half
is
getting
steamed
whole
milk
though
...
So
lets
say
375
customers
out
of
750
are
buying
with
steamed
whole
milk
1.50x365=547.5
yearly
now
lets
multiply
that
number
Xs
375
457.5x375+$205,312.¢05
yearly
per
store
and
thats
only
calculating
the
amount
of
steam
milk
sales
at
1.50
thats
not
including
the
coffee
you
put
it
in...
so
lets
see
(Id
say
$205,312.¢5
far
exceeds
that
amount
in-which
they
spend
on
the
milk
its
self
which
is
30,222,00
yearly
per
store.)
You
cant
seriously
justify
a
couple
of
seconds
extra
to
steam
whole
milk
constituting
1.50
extra
no
way
in
hell,
you
are
rapping
your
customers
with
this
tactic
its
overpriced,
its
highway
robbery...
