Published
Starbucks has raised prices on several of its coffee drinks by five to 20 cents, depending on the region and selection. Moreover, bagged coffee is set to increase by 8% starting on July 21. It should be noted, however, that despite our hilarious play on the word "Frappucino," the sweet blended drink has not increased in price; for now, fraps are safe.
In this brief — yet lively — video, our experts discuss how much is too much to pay for a cup of coffee?
What about you, readers? At what point will you stop over-paying for coffee? Tell us in the comments below.

That said, it doesn't sound like the loyalty card would be something I'd get any value from. At this point, I don't buy coffee from Starbucks all that often. And I no longer have a taste for it, because I like our local options much better. I DO however really like their kale salad, but who goes to Starbucks for the food?
On Sundays, I like to take my time and make my own french press coffee, grind the beans, heat the beaker, heat water, brew and press ;-)
