They claim that it's due to their products being too expensive.

Their coffee has always been pricey. People don't have disposable income like they used to, and are settling for that gas station coffee for $1.59.

EDIT: I forgot about the DEI factor

Starbucks is on the boycott list i think
It might not be a direct correlation but fukk it we need to pretend that it is and high light how Target, Starbucks and all these other companies market value has dipped since they abandoned DEI
They been on the list for anti union busting and pro Israel support

Honestly there are so many better coffee shops than Starbucks WORLDWIDE but they just have the Drive thru option and also still very much a staple on the streets but pound for pound quality they are ass and gradually as we can see people are fukking with them less.

Starbucks coffee overrated. It just happens to be across from my office so it's convenient to go there in the morning on days when I don't work from home

This is what people voted for :yeshrug:

Doesn't affect me personally since I never go to Starbucks but this can't be good for the economy.

The Starbucks by my crib is pretty cool. I know the morning crew and they hook me up sometimes.

fukk them for even charging that much in the first place I will continue to get my gas station coffee. How fukking greedy do you have to be, when I used to think coffee I would think Starbucks so you know it was never a time they didn't make a crazy profit.

I got Caribou, Mean Mug, and Archive now for coffee. Starbucks ain’t the only player in town anymore, Add that to the other stuff people are saying in the thread and you can say Starbucks is in trouble
