My husband drinks coffee in the morning, but I do not. I make iced coffee from his left over pot of morning coffee to drink in the afternoon. I just refrigerate and add ice and liquid creamer later. I save money and waste!

Maybelle: The green advice is great! Right now, we save the cups that the outside use so we are not making the environment any worst in a way but we certainly would not buy plastic cups.

I believe time is money for everyone, but everyone can always find time. I think it gets down to whether you “want” to or not.

Great that you guys are making your own coffee at home. Indeed, all the drinks made at Starbucks can be made at home. All the syrups (like vanilla) can be found at a place like Cost Plus (the World Market). But if time is money for you, then stick to Starbucks. Personally, once gas prices went up, I had to give up my once a week habit. Sadness.

However, you guys should trying going “green.” Use reusable mugs instead of those plastic cups. You’ll be helping the environment and saving money at the same time!
