Cheap Coffee Still Not Worth It

I can't believe that I almost missed hearing the news about this deal. It's probably because I didn't have my morning, and afternoon, fill up on overpriced coffee! "Looking to bring more value-seeking consumers through its doors for a late afternoon caffeine fix, Starbucks Corp. said it will now offer its morning customers any iced grande beverage for $2 after 2 p.m." Thats right, if you spend $3 for a cup of boring coffee in the morning, you can get 470 calories and 19 grams of fat (in your Mint Mocha Chip Frappuccino) for only $2! But take advantage now... the deal ends September 2nd.

But not to worry... there may be a new drug that could take care of the calorie count... and probably be priced as absurdly as Starbucks coffee. "With no exercise, you can take a drug and chemically mimic it." I know... amazing right? It's currently being tested on humans after proving effective on mice. Sign me up!
