Last year I had to cut back on my obsession with them. Mainly because everytime I go to Starbucks, it seems that they have raised their prices. I usually only go when I have a giftcard (GREAT birthday present btw, right up there with a Target GC as well) or when I just HAVE to give in to my craving.
Last night after the gym I popped in to HEB for some supplies for dinner tonight (well, actually tomorrow night, I forgot I had something tonight). We also needed coffee and as I walked down the aisle I caught sight of this:
I never knew it existed! The whole container was just over $4 (half the price of what it's sold for on starbucks.com). A Venti Chai at Starbucks is $4.27! The carton says you can get about 9 servings from it which translates into about 5 when you make enough to fill your travel mug. I can now afford to have Chai Tea EVERY DAY!!!!
Ah, yes. We drink cartons of this stuff at work. So, so good!
ReplyDeleteGood to know how to get on your good side. ;)
ReplyDeletep.s. I have a blog now!
Personally, I'm partial to Oregon Chai mix, but I AM an Oregonian, so that's not surprising.
ReplyDeleteIn college, my mom tried to send me a whole box of the stuff along with some winter clothes. En route, one of the cartons ruptured and by the time it arrived, the box and everything inside smelled PUTRID, and was just a big sticky mess of ruined clothes. Despite all that, I still love the stuff.
