I haven’t gone to Starbucks for a regular coffee since they changed to only serving Pike’s Place Roast (like 10+ years ago).

It should tell them something when you go to the grocery store, Starbucks is on sale, and they are out of Breakfast Blend, House Blend, and Veranda Blend, but they have full shelves of fucking Pike’s. There are several gas station brand coffees better than that swill.

I just doing drink coffee so that solves that problem. The last time I went to a Starbucks was when I was on vacation in Florida in 2012

Isn’t this because they were supporting Israel?

As much as I wish it was, it’s more likely people are cutting back spending across junk food, see McDs having the same problem.

mctoasterson ,

Maybe it’s because their coffee is garbage, their prices are high, and many people have less disposable income than they used to.

ShepherdPie ,

Here in the NW, in their own home territory, they’re few and and far between these days. There is way too much good coffee around for them to support being on every street corner like they used to be.

Whee hee! Look! Another signpost for a recession. McDs also are taking a hit bc of pricing and such

My local cafes are just better, and they’re just as close as Starbucks. It’s not that they aren’t busy, their sales just aren’t growing and shareholders don’t like it when the line doesn’t go up.

Why would you go to Starbucks if another local coffee shop was nearby? Their coffee is fine, but it loses taste tests to McDonald’s. They’re anti union. They’re too expensive. You can usually get a better coffee elsewhere.

HeyJoe ,

That’s crazy. Someone told me McDonald’s coffee is pretty good for the lower price range. I tried it a few times since you never know if it was just a bad batch, and I gotta say it was pretty awful, not for me. I just avoid starbucks because they think they can charge you the most ridiculous price I’ve seen for ok coffee. I have a few local places I will go to if I need something. Sadly, they are pretty expensive as well these days, but they are still cheaper than starbucks.

Starbucks gives me apple fanboy vibes…

InternetUser2012 ,

Good. I hope every single company that took advantage of the inflation by raising prices to the fucking moon goes under.

workerONE ,

I want planning to go back to Starbucks but it turns out they didn’t actually sponsor the RNC convention politifact.com/…/starbucks-was-an-official-sponso…

Now I don’t know, coffee bean and tea leaf have a nice Colombian coffee

Gingerlegs ,

Omg, the consequences of all the giant corporations inflating prices for the last 4 years

The Starbucks in my area removed all their seating. I would go for the 3rd space aspect but they got rid of it.

ChillPenguin ,

First McDonald’s falling sales. Now Starbucks falling sales. Hmm… I wonder if there’s a trend going on here.

We’re all maxed out and broke!

another ,

Are we going elsewhere or are we just too broke to grab a $7 coffee every day?

Annoyed_Crabby ,

Maybe because we’re too broke for a $7 coffee everyday so we going elsewhere.

another ,

Or maybe we are just annoyed and crabby.

Pacattack57 ,

I’ve seen a few of these articles and everyone is missing the bigger picture. Yes making better products will increase sales. However the main point that people don’t understand is that companies are recognizing that their prices are too high to drive sales and as such prices drop to reflect that. Meaning that inflation is shrinking. This is a huge win for Americans and I hope voters see that and vote accordingly.

WhyFlip ,

I go to my kitchen for coffee. Fuck Starbucks.

The other day I was walking around, thinking about all the different coffee shops I could see, and wondering why people waste their money on starbucks and their burnt-ass coffee.
