If you don't have your Apple branded device and Starbucks coffee logo both clearly visible, do you even have any worth?

No argument, but why are you paying so much for the coffee when they weren't making it right in the first place? And now they're saying, "Do it yourself."

Why is anyone paying so much for coffee that's 25 cents to begin with?

Closing hundreds of stores during effort to reverse dropping sales.
And customers have balked at the chain’s prices. More than 70% of people blamed higher prices for why they planned to visit Starbucks less over the next 12 months, a recent UBS survey of 1,600 consumers found.
