    Pretty much. I watched my favorite coffee hut (literally a hut that you drive up to) go from $3 large like 5 years ago to $4, then within a year hit $5. At that point, I stopped going, although funny enough, i did go there today since it was convenient and it’s now $5.50… I laughed and said yeah I’m definitely done now. As much as I like coffee, it’s now a high-end luxury item that I can no longer afford even occasionally due to everything else raising as well.

      You could always make it yourself. Although caffeine pills are the cheapest way to go if it’s really caffeine you’re after.

      Paying $3 for a drink was always a scam. Paying $5 is just like getting ripped off by a drug dealer while thinking you’re getting the hook up. Complete insanity.
