PG Tips?
I wouldn't drink Starbucks unless it was the last shop in an airline terminal!

PG Tips is a breakfast tea from UK. Very forgiving. I don't drink at Starbucks, but I like their mugs. My espresso is much better than theirs.

The prices they charge you should get the mug for free anyway.
My biggest beefs with Starbucks are that they claim they started big "coffee awareness", but that is due to Alfred Peet. And while true on a national scale, they switched to mostly fru-fru drinks- loaded with sugars and syrups. They are in the same league as hamburger joints in the fattening of Americans, and Europeans!
I hear ya...my go to travel mug is the Carter...keeps coffee hot for 8 hours+..

I like starbucks for what it is. I only occasionally give them my money due to price. But I have to admit, for how fast they have exploded and how many locations they have, they are impressively okay. If they arent #1 for brick and mortar locations, then they are only behind McDonalds & subway. Those 2 have some serious sanitation and staffing issues, and questionable quality.
Starbucks is also quick to push innovative items onto their menu. Think shaken espresso and sweet cold foams. Sure it might not have originated in their shop, but nobody heard of the items until starbucks put them on the map
i digress

We seem to be accumulating an enlarging population of "Aroma Joe's" here in Androscoggin County. I have yet to give them a try.
Last time I visited a Dunkin Donuts after they shortened their name, it seems they've also shortened their product lineup. The donut case appeared to hold an assortment from the local grocery store. The clerk didn't know what a "coffee regular" was, and put 3 sugars and 3 creamers in the cup. That's one chain I won't be revisiting again this millennium.

With Waitrose and Booths scrapping disposable plastic cups I'm looking for something suitable to use at the self service machines in both Waitrose and Booths. I'm aware Waitrose do reusable cups for £3, which is cheaper than Booths and the Waitrose one would be a suitable size for the machine in Booths. I've heard Greggs do £2 reusable cups but does anyone know if Greggs do them in a size which would be suitable for the machines in Waitrose? The reusable cups I've seen pictured on social media seem to be large size rather than regular size.
