Hey Canadians, have you received your small free coffee yet from McDonald’s? There’s still time. The last day is Nov 3rd.
Speaking of free coffee, Starbucks has yet to dish out free drinks. Read about how Starbucks is an overpriced status symbol that dominates the coffee market in Suburban Finance.
Where I live, most people (especially those that I know) regard frequenting Starbucks as some kind of status symbol that only those who can afford it go to the place and that it makes them feel like they “belong”. Well, given that prices at Starbucks are unbelievably high, then maybe. But really? For coffee?
Coffee should be affordable for everyone, but with a lot of things, there is always a low end version and a high end version. Never thought there would be such a thing as high end coffee though. Well specialty drinks have always been around, but I think Starbucks made them more mainstream.
I was still travelling when this started and didn’t realize it was on until the last day, so I missed out. Free coffee weeks at McDonald’s are one of my favourite things…
Thanks for sharing this post. I really love too much McDonald’s coffee. Mostly espresso. I like this too much. It is too testy and very delicious. You can also say that. I am addicted with this coffee. 😛
