Switch to Dunkin???? Never!

Lately I have been feeling a bit guilty about some of my spending habits. Many people I associate with including parents and staff from the cadet group as well as my own sisters have significantly less financial resources then I do. Most mornings you will find me sitting in my elitist coffee shop wearing my $160 North Face jacket and $120 Keen shoes drinking a $5 triple-venti-no-whipped mocha. Yesterday I decided to change all that; Today I am sitting in my elitist coffee shop wearing my $160 North Face jacket and $120 Keen shoes drinking a $2.75 Café Au Lait. Now I feel much better.

It isn't the coffee. It's the feeling. We tend to associate certain things in our lives with places. I associate a particular experience with Starbucks. They've even written books about it. Some people clear their heads in parks. Others do it in Starbucks.

I am not one for corporations. I hate them. I do not shop at Wal-Mart, and detest "the man" in just about every way one CAN detest "the man."

However, I still drink a 5 dollar triple grande caramel macchiato every day, despite the enormous bills I have.

...don't feel so bad.

Spending guilt... the most useless guilt of all.
