Starbucks has Raised Price of Brewed Coffee… Again

The links in the post below may contain affiliate links. Read the full disclosure.


Here we go again! Starbucks has once again raised the price of its brewed coffee by 10¢ to 20¢ at most of its company-owned stores in the U.S., with the last price hike being back in July 2016. Although prices will vary by location, the average price for a 12oz drink is now around $1.95 to $2.15.

The good news is that most of Starbuck’s specialty beverages, like lattes, mochas, tea lattes, iced coffee, Frappuccinos, iced tea, cold brews and Nitros, remain unchanged at nearly all locations.

If you’re a regular Starbucks brewed coffee drinker, will this price hike change your coffee routine – OR will you continue to order your usual?

What are your plans for the summer? My family is planning to stay close to home this summer since we recently returned from a 7 day cruise. The rising gas prices, may force us to scale back our travels and take advantage of some local “staycations”.

This summer, we are going to leverage staying close to home and becoming ‘local legends’. We are going to break out the water balloons and the slip-on-slide and have some good old fashioned fun in the sun! We will also have picnics and barbecues with our friends and family. I am planning to enroll my son in a week long summer camp through our church. Since we live very close to our state zoo, we will try to frequently visit it. I love visiting the zoo because it is a great way to exercise (boy do you walk!) and the kids LOVE it (even the big ones! ?).

We are also planning to visit our local amusement park, Carowinds (we have season passes). My son LOVES riding roller-coasters and looks forward to visiting every chance we get. My son is already counting down the days until school is out for summer (1 week from today but who’s counting ?). My husband is off work most Fridays during the summer so they visit Carowinds almost every week they can. One time the park wasn’t very busy and they rode the Carolina Cyclone 46 times in a row (without getting off ?). They were truly a ‘local legend’! We purchased the season passes that included a meal plan so we don’t have to worry about packing a picnic lunch to enjoy at the car….. We all know how expensive the amusement park food and drinks are! The meal plan covers 2 meals for every day you visit the park (must be 4 hours apart)! With a season pass you also get free parking! Carowinds also has a waterpark!

Whatever your family is planning to do this summer, Gymboree has all of your kiddos clothing needs taken care of so head on over and check out all the awesome deals! So what is your family planning to do this summer?


After you check out the great Gymboree deals, make sure you enter the No Rules Summer Block Party Sweepstakes! Through 5/22 you can enter to win a legendary block party kit valued at over $3,000!

One Grand Prize winning family will receive:

  • $500 Gymboree gift card
  • 20 Gymboree No Rules Just Summer Tees for you & your friends
  • 4 Polaroid Snap Touch instant digital cameras & Polaroid photo paper to document the fun
  • $250 in Naturebox snacks for all your guests (& a lifetime membership!)
