Where do you get your coffee in the morning?

I don't drink coffee, but my wife does and I am amazed at what lengths people go to get coffee each morning. I think most people buy it somewhere, which baffles me becasue of how quick and inexpensive it is to make at home.

I agree. I used to drink coffee at work sometimes, even belonged to the "coffee club" in an office off and on... I don't always want coffee, but then go thru a phase where I do I don't know why people spend so much money on the stuff, the stuff in the stores isn't any better than a coffee maker at home, until you get to espressos and the like and I really only sometimes want something like that I mostly want chocolate to flavor my coffee and that's easy enough to do at home too...

good coffee can be made at home, if they are willing to spend all that money (and the time waiting in LINES) they should just do it at home, get the fancy machine and no line to wait in

Hi kb! I always wondered the same thing! I must admit though when I was working and for a short while when I did drink coffee I would buy it on the way to work too. But, I didn't have time to make it and drink it before I left in the morning because I was always too rushed. And I would usually get a bagel or a donut with it!

I can see where people can get in that rut..."Oh, I will just stop my dunkin donuts and get a coffee since I don't have time to make it." Then, like you, they end up getting a donut or bagel and have spent 3 or 4 dollars. If they make it at home, the cup of coffe probably cost them $.10 or something. I always make my wife's coffee the night before so she just has to push Brew. If I did not, she would be one of those in that rut.

Actually coffee is not my main drink. I don't often drink it because sometimes I am afraid I will be sleepless at night. Therefore, I don't have a habit to drink it in the morning. I love China

I have heard people say that. That no matter what time of day they drink coffee they can't go to bed at night

I know what you mean. Although I've always enjoyed the smell of coffee, it is only recently that I have become a full pledged coffee-drinker. We have a coffee maker at home, yet I still drive through a nearby gasoline station to get my coffee before going to work. For some reason, coffee made by somebody else tastes better! I don't know why.

Yeah, coffee at stores and other places is expensive. Even at $1 a cup per day, you end up spending over $250 on coffee in a year when you could make it at home and cost probably $50 for the year.

I drink it mostly at work and it is free. So no need to spend money or drive somewhere else.

I used to be a two a day latte girl but hard times have made me drink my starbucks from home everyday but I'd rather give it up than drink any other bean.
