Isn't that like a Big Gulp?
I've never minded Starbucks, but then again I grew up in a place that had no decent places to get coffee. On the other hand, the local little coffee chain does have better coffee, as long as the manager isn't on vacation, since they roast their own and the assistant manager always seems to burn it (or something - I'm not knowledgable enough about coffee to know exactly what is wrong with it, it just tastes bad). And it's cheaper. But no WiFi.
And Tazo tea is okay (I've not a big fan of flavored teas, and that seems to be their strength), but check out
SpecialTeas. Lots of great teas in bulk, and the prices work out to be less than Lipton for most of the really good teas, although there are a few that are astronomical (but as the site points out, still less than even cheap wine). I like the Nuwara Eliya Ceylon and the Makaibari Darjeeling.
