As if Starbucks drinks weren’t expensive enough already, the chain has announced that starting next week the prices will get an increase on some products. About one-third of the drinks will get about a 10 cent increase. Coffee, lattes, expressos, and teas will be on the rise for a tall size. In most stores, the venti and grande brews will not face a price increase. This is the first price increase in about two years and although it’s only 10 cents, it will add up for Starbucks addicts but there is a way around the increase. Read more below.
The cost of labor and materials are to blame for the minor price increase. If customers bring a resuable Starbucks cup or their own resuable cups/tumblers they will get a 10 cent discount.
