I refuse to pay for coffee outside unless its to also meet up with a friend and thus use the cafe for its hospitalization rather than its overpriced product.

That said, I don't want to know the math for the alternative cost of my purchase of an overly expensive coffee machine (~$1250). 🤣 Makes great coffee though!

But on a serious note, most people have 5-10 Starbucks-equivalent spending habits that in aggregated set them back a full decade.. Again: it is the small things that tend to become the big things.
