"I would like my usual!"

So my love, or addiction as some would call it, for coffee started forever ago when I was intrigued by how my Dad could drink pots and pots and pots of coffee in just a matter of hours.  He then made me a kid friendly version with coffee, milk and oh yeah a lot of sugar!  It was love at first sip.  Forward to present day I couldn't tell you how much money I have spent on the drug but I'm sure we have hit the $10,000 range. 

Starbucks is my morning stop and it's almost my home away from home.  The Barista's know me by name (sad I know) and know exactly what I want because that usually never changes.  I love Starbucks so much that I would one day love to own one.  Wouldn't that be the best job ever!  You probably couldn't ever get me to go home.  Unlimited coffee and espresso all day!  Plus the people watching would never make for a bad day on the job!  The Hubs is on board with this too.  We have already scouted out a few cities that we would make millions on.  Just need the MILLION DOLLARS in the bank so if anyone is up for helping the cause it would be greatly appreciated!  For those of you who may not frequent Starbucks you may not know that they have what is called a Gold Card.

It is a wonderful club that I now belong too.  Who knew that all I had to do all these years is register one of my gift cards to start culminating points.  For every 15 drinks I buy I get a drink for free.  I know it might not sound great but when you buy 7+ drinks a week it adds up and adds up fast.  Side note: I think I spend more on this than diapers and wipes for Mr. J.  You also get all kinds of free stuff when you are a Gold Card holder.  For those of you interested I have added the link so you too can be in the know and save a cool $5 bucks to go spend it on whatever your little heart desires.
