They say it is to cover rising cost of fuel and dairy product. Is that a cover up for the real reason - Paul McCartney?

Many libs work behind those Starbucks counters protecting our double lattes from the terrorist so it will be hard for them to boycott their employer.

I work at Starbucks and from a retail level it is actually the rise of dairy prices and that because of the goddamn fuel companies the stores have to pay more for energy, times that by 25000 stores and such. Personally, boycotting Starbucks is stupid because thats 1 person out of the millions who visit each day. The main thing about Starbucks though is that you are paying for the atmosphere. I know it sounds stupid, but compare it to a Dunkin Donuts where you have metal chairs and table that is maybe 1/100 plastic and the rest is gum remains. Starbucks has comfy chairs, and people who will actually talk to you.

LOL, Paul McCartney? Oh come on. The cost of fuel is causing everything to go up, especially dairy. You don't think conservatives drink Starbucks coffee? Oh come on!

I refuse to boycott Starbucks. I will continue to make my coffee in the morning at home and after drinking several cups, try not to have a desire to spend a lot of money on expensive stuff like Starbucks coffee. It reminds me of what Archie Bunker said about drinking beer right before running to the bathroom. You can only rent it. Starbucks will never miss me! I am a true fiscal Righty. I do not know what Starbucks coffee tastes like. I would rather buy my wife some Hershey's chocolate. Sometimes she will share a piece with me. They sell it on line and will put a personal message on some pieces. Women love candy!! Especially my wife!!

Dude everything needs to be trucked in from the Manufacturers all the way to the distributers, then to the stores themselves so everything is gonna go up. Besides, any idiot that pays more than $2 for a cup of coffee deserves the price hike.

If you can't afford it don't drink it, why would you boycott Starbucks...you can still go to Dunkin Donuts or any gas station for a cheap coffee.

I'm drinking Starbucks right now!
Fuel costs are the "real" reason. Sip away!

Lol. The price of cigarettes goes up by even more, and the sheep still run to the shop to get their cancer sticks. I think people may moan about the price increase for a little while, but I think they will also soon forget.
