random post.. but how many people like / love starbucks?
how often do you get starbucks and what do you get?
my list (varies):
-coffee frap
-caramel frap
-white chocolate mocha
-passion tea with valencia w.o lemonade
-sweetened passion tea with lemonade
many starbucks have stopped carrying valencia during christmas time.. and thats the time i was just starting to like it too. they said that theyre just gonna stop sending out valencia to the shops and the only ones that have it just have them in stock until they run out. was lucky and found a shop in huntington beach that carries valencia still and never heard about stopping the shipments of valencia. they told us that theyll probably still receive it. YES!

Every workday morning for the past several years, I generally get:
Venti Caramel Frap during summer
Venti Vanilla Coffee other months
I should have used the money to buy SBUX stock instead.

I just recently broke my $5 a day habit...
Used to get a venti Mocha Frappuchino Light every single day - $5 a pop.
Got a new blender, so now I make my own - and they're vastly improved. I use the bottled Mocha Frappuchino Starbucks sells - a case of 12 from Costco is barely over $12. I add a scoop of Designer Whey Protein, and a few squirts of Hersey's No Sugar Chocolate Syrup. Blend with ice, and it's awesome. Makes a ton too - ~5 cups.
Saving more than $30 a week is nice too.

Hi all, since I'm a coffee lover I had to give my .02 cents. I used to drink a mocha everyday then I got tired of the SB taste.
I wanted something more potent yet not so bitter, so I brew 100% pure Kona coffee medium roast in a french press every morning. It'll wake you up for sure. If you get a chance give it a try. It also tasted good in an esspresso machine.

I actually prefer this coffee to just about anything else... I have spent time all over the world, including quite a bit of time in Italy, and -nothing- compares to this stuff.
