    stop going?

    i dont buy peanut butter cups often because i can't stop eating them. therefore, i stand in the checkout line and look mournfully at them, but resist their sweeet sweet song,begging me to pick them up and take them home and EAT THEM ALL.


    being a responsible grown up sucks.

    Coffee! To reduce milk you could get an Americano misto, or a coffee misto. That's half steamed milk. I get mine with a pump of gingerbread or cinnamon dolce syrup.

    I go to Starbucks a couple times a week, mostly on the weekends, and another couple local coffee shops. Always order the same thing no matter what time of year: large hot black coffee. I used to put cream and sugar in it, but have pretty much stopped adding anything to my coffee since early last year. How can you beat 10 calories and caffeine?!?!

    Start drinking regular americanos. They are awesome. But then again you can easily save the money and make a pot of regular coffee at home. I normally use Starbucks lately to acquire a newspaper, and black coffee.

    I don't like Starbucks anymore... It makes me jittery... I make a good cup of strong coffee at home and it's delish.
    Saves money too!

    I don't like Starbucks coffee, I never did. I find it too strong and very acidic. I prefer the Kona/Hawaiian coffee that my husband prepares everyday in the morning and early afternoon; no milk or creamers, just splenda. When we go out for coffee with prefer the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Company. Better coffee for our taste.

    I'm not a Starbucks nut by any means, but it sure is a convenient caffeine fix. I usually get cappuccinos in the morning, since a tall with 2% milk is 90 calories, or a grande unsweetened cold brew with coconut milk in the afternoon for 25 calories.
