Yes. Starbucks can offer value.

A few days ago, I had a couple hours to kill while waiting for my client’s case at traffic court. I debated between Starbucks and McDonald’s.

With Starbucks’ new pairings, I could have spent $3.95 to get a latte and some coffee cake. Or I could’ve spent the same amount to get drip coffee and a hot breakfast sandwich. Add in sales tax, and the total cost is about the same as McDonald’s.

To me that’s a pretty good value. Of course I am a Starbucks fanatic. I won’t deny that.

But I think that people who claim Starbucks can’t offer value are missing the boat. While McDonald’s may be cheap, it still isn’t free. Plus, at Starbucks you’re paying for the relaxing atmosphere. And you get 2 hours of free wifi by using your registered Starbucks card.

Where will your pit stop be?
