POLL: Will the Starbucks Price Hike Change Where You Buy Coffee?

Starbucks has announced it will hike the prices of some drinks in the Boston region.

 

Your "tall" morning java may soon cost 10 cents more.

Starbucks recently announced it will raise prices in the Northeast, according to Jim Olson, who was quoted by the Associated Press saying the "tall" prices of six or seven beverages could change.

The greater Boston area, as well as regions in New York, Washington D.C., and Atlanta could all see the hike.

According to Olson, "grande" size drinks will stay the same in price.

The price increase comes as costs for ingredients, and other expenses, such as fuel, are rising, according to the Associated Press. The last Starbucks price hike was in 2007, according to the AP.
