Coffee sellers worldwide are raising their prices as some high quality coffees are being produced at their lowest rate in fifty years. International giant Starbucks will see a 17 percent price hike in bagged coffee starting in mid-July, and their rise seems to be representative across the board. But similarly to the raising price of oil, coffee drinkers are expected to keep on consuming, regardless of the hikes. Al Jazeera’s Caroline Malone reports.

Horaayy..there are 25 comment(s) for me so far ;)
You know people it might be a good time to invest in a coffee company such as Starbucks Tim Hortons or Maxwell House.
@geffel processing, roasting, grinding, shipping and fuel charges, service charges, taxes, paying the farmer and the truck drivers that transport it to the market etc, etc. That is why your coffee costs four dollars. Its not made out of thin air, it takes alot to bring that tin of coffee home. Why not ask why everything is so expensive these days and I’ll tell you why. INFLATION.
SO if it’s $1.12 per pound then why the FUCKING fuckery fuck is a single cup costing over $4 at greedy bastard coffee outlets? Why is a pound of coffee at my supermarket nearly $10?
Greedy cunts.
100% Arabica from Columbia is the best.
The price rise is all a scam. The goal is to rape the wealthy west and redistribute the wealth to the central bankers and third world dictators.
All the globalist corporations are in on it, Coke, Pepsi, Folgers, Maxwell House, Wal-Mart, they all are scum.
It’s about downsizing, control, and the New World Order.
@kd5eej But it’s cool to be see sitting in front of star bucks sipping on coffee and pigging out on $5 donuts.
@kd5eej Agree.
@Zoink555 hope your not from america, cause they wouldn’t have far to go.
@kd5eej lol
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
welcome to hyperinflation
All commodities will rise.
Paper currencies are garbage.
Buy a can or freezed dried, pennies a cup, add some flavored creamer and a spot of sugar, ahhh, screw starbucks, duncan doodoo’s ripoff con artists.
@kd5eej yep much more for a price and then they are idiot……
this colonial mentallity has to end they buy raw coffe 1$ 4 kilos in asia and africa and sell one cup for 5 $ colonialism never ended and the capitalist mentallity has to end
Drink tea instead. Problem solved.
You can buy a pound of coffee which is like a trillion cups for 2$ yet you still pay 5$ for a cup. lol
@Ramsoondar yet, you forget were stuck in linear time, and its speeding up very quickly
Wheat, Coffee DAMN YOU ALL IN GOLDMAN SACHS!!
17 percent? Highway robbery it is.
It doesn’t affect me
Whenever I need a pick-me-up, I drink Taylor’s Yorkshire Tea®. Taylor’s® – blended by tea experts, a wholesome, refreshing mug of tea that is simply champion.
Taylors Yorkshire Tea®. Deelicious tea, in a mug.
@kd5eej I’ve only had starbucks twice in my life and I didn’t even get coffee, but you’re right it is overpriced crap
@Zoink555 of course it is, there were no jew clients at any starbucks the day prices went up
@kjb86 You gave me an idea there…
Starbucks got told to fuck off around here cause they were filthy bastards. Everyone told them to piss off back to whatever scum country they came from. Aren’t we lucky? :)
