Starbucks has moved me to the left on the demand curve for lattes. I have always been able to justify the $3 plus price for the latte as a treat a couple of times a week. Of late, I had switched to a better coffee place, Aroma, near the office which also happens to be cheaper and they give you a little chocolate with your order. Add to that the purchase of a home espresso machine which has curtailed weekend purchases and I haven't been to Starbucks for a while. The other day, I was on my way to a meeting, a little early and desirous of a coffee fix. So I stopped in at one of the numerous convenient Starbucks locations in the concourse. And paid $3.50 for a tall latte. For some reason, $3.50 has pushed it into the category of too expensive in my mind. Not that it will likely impact Starbucks much. Just saying.
To Shannon who likes the iPod cover - give it a try - it is really very easy. I'm only good with sewing straight lines so can vouch for its simplicity!
