XL coffee EXTRA light EXTRA sweet...

OK first of all I need to make one thing VERY clear by stating the fact that my day cannot start until I've had my LARGE cup of coffee! I cannot even remember when I started drinking this vice of mine but I do & I LOVE it! That being said even though I LOVE to drink it I'm not that much of a connoisseur. I just know that it's coffee, wakes me up & it tastes good to me. My mother on the other hand has a nose for it & can tell when it's a fresh pot, FULLY loaded or just plain decaf. I'm no where near that good, I just LOVE it about as much as I LOVE eating my dark chocolate! YUM! I drink it EXTRA light & EXTRA sweet. Because of the strange hours I keep at my part-time job I tend to go to Dunkin Donuts to fulfill my wants in this dept. They are nearby & most of all they have a drive thru so I'm there! LOL! It was not until the other day did I realize how different each Dunkin Donuts really is. Yes they pretty much all serve the same kinds of coffee, bagels, muffins, wraps & most of all donuts but their prices are VERY different! Did you know that being they are individually owned they can pretty much charge whatever they want for the same size coffee? YEP! For YEARS I have been driving to the Dunkin near my work & ordering my usual, an XL coffee EXTRA light EXTRA sweet. Recently I have been paying $2.43 each time figuring that inflation had driven up the price of my FAV drink. But as I have already said I NEED my coffee so I just pay it. Well just the other day I stopped on my way off the turnpike at a DIFFERENT Dunkin Donuts and ordered my regular only to be charged 32 cents cheaper! Yes, THIRTY TWO cents cheaper! I could not believe how much of a difference in price it was from one Dunkin to the next in the SAME friggin' town! {FYI this occurred in Pompano Beach, FL} I am here to tell you that it really does pay to investigate! You better believe I will be rethinking where I purchase my next...
