2. How Starbucks Addicts Are Bracing for the Coffee Price Hike

Brian Gardner and his wife say they visit their local Starbucks in Chicago, Illinois, at least once a day, seven days a week. They already spend nearly $140 a week at the popular coffee chain, or as much as $6,700 a year.

Starbucks' announced price hike of 5 to 20 cents begins today in certain parts of the country, but the Gardners may have dodged the bullet this time around. Starbucks Grande and Venti brewed coffee will increase 10 to 15 cents in most markets, while Tall and Venti-sized Latte and Mocha drinks will rise 15 to 20 cents in some markets.

"We are loyal fans," said Gardner, 40. "It will not change the amount of coffee we drink or amount of times we go."

Brian Gardner said he is preparing for Starbucks' price hike.
