Is Starbucks Slashing Prices?

This may actually be the day that pigs fly, but there are reports of Starbucks cutting back on their prices all over the nation. There is, of course, a small catch, which is that they will also be raising the prices on some items to make up for it. Boo!

The difference is nominal, and you may not even notice it, but they will be reducing prices on small lattes and coffee is by 5 to 10 cents. However, they will raise prices on frappuccinos and other more complex drinks by up to $.25. Starbucks is definitely feeling the hit of the economy, especially since other chains are trying to rival them in the convenient coffee-to-go business. One of these is McDonald's, who recently introduced their McCafe beverages as a cheaper alternative to a coffee house drink.

If you are a Starbucks fan, this may be great news for you, but even greater news would be in purchasing a quality home coffee maker to save you more cash by brewing at home!

For the best way to brew your coffee, you can find home coffee makers on my website today!
