Admit it, Starbucks! You sell cups.

When it comes to the name Starbucks, many people's first impression is that it is a coffee shop. However, what is interesting is that Starbucks is much slower to update new coffee drinks than cups. Some consumers obviously prefer Starbucks' surroundings to Starbucks coffee. Starbucks is not so much a coffee shop as a cup factory.

Every time Starbucks offers a new cup, many young people are willing to empty their wallets and buy it. Starbucks partners are also generous to the new "payback plan."

The cost of drinking water for young people is getting higher and higher, and water may not be expensive, but the cup must not be lost at the starting line. It seems that with a good-looking cup, we can drink several times more water than usual.

When the same water cup is stimulated repeatedly, the excitement of the brain will decrease until it disappears and even produces boredom.
