Starbucks wants to make your money with ice cubes. You can save money like this.

For most people, Starbucks is a luxury in coffee. It costs several times more than regular coffee, but the coffee has shrunk, which has to be confusing. Just last Wednesday, a woman from Chicago sued Starbucks for "deceiving consumers" on the grounds that there was too much ice in iced coffee.

Not long ago, Starbucks was sued for offering a latte that was not full. According to the weight on its drink list, it actually got 25% less latte!

In the United States, where coffee can be bought everywhere, coffee that can be renewed for 99 cents can be found everywhere, while at Starbucks, the cheapest coffee costs $2 a cup, but you can't buy a whole cup of coffee at more than twice the price. no wonder so many people complain.

But even in the United States, which is known as a big consumer, consumers face a lot of problems: most of Caesar Salad is frozen lettuce, and there are only a few cashews and peanuts in the box of high-end nuts. there are also internal advertisements in pay-subscription TV shows. According to this logic, there should be more ice in iced coffee than coffee.

In fact, in addition to these two highly hyped lawsuits, Starbucks has also been sued for a series of bizarre reasons, such as "the coffee provided is too hot." Looking at the coffee shops they often patronize frequently make headlines, how do netizens view this matter? The editor found that the vast majority of onlookers were watching, and American users on Twitter complained like this:

Starbucks is accused of putting too much ice, and I also think that there is only half a bag of potato chips.

I think I just saw that Starbucks was accused of being dissatisfied with its latte.

The coffee I buy is sometimes only half a cup, and the other half is foam floating on it.

Although Starbucks' practice of reducing volume and not reducing prices does have a lot of room for improvement, for Starbucks fans, a variety of money-saving skills can also save a lot of money.

Take the choice of cup type, for example, there have long been a lot of careful netizens to help us calculate how to buy the most appropriate. Take a latte as an example, if you buy a medium cup, it costs 27 yuan, or 7.50 yuan / 100ml; and so on, it costs 6.25 yuan / 100ml for a large cup and 5.50 yuan / 100ml for an oversized cup. In this way, Tuhao's oversized cup of coffee is obviously the most cost-effective.

In addition, ordering a free cup of hot water in the store can also save money on bottled water. If two friends go together, you can order the largest cup of coffee and then order two more cups for two people to share.

Of course, the simplest and rudest way the editor has ever seen is to order a cup of espresso directly, pour it into the big cup he brought, and then refill the free milk and sugar, and make the homemade milk coffee. This way of drinking can directly reduce the cost to a minimum.

If the coffee you get is not satisfactory, in fact, there is one of the most direct ways to solve it, that is to tell the clerk his specific requirements and ask the clerk to make a new cup. According to Starbucks' official explanation, the ice in iced coffee is one of the selling points, and if customers don't like this way of making it, they can ask the clerk to make a new cup as they like, for example, have a cup of iced coffee, no ice, just coffee.
