That's good for me.

I like McD's coffee products far better than Starbucks at any price, but to get them for less?  How can that be bad?

i see that McDonald's will be pricing their McCafe drinks at $2 for a while starting in April, along with other drinks at $1.   sounds like a temporary break for all those looking for a well priced alternative to those high priced Starbucks drinks.

All the mcdonalds in my area and the surrounding areas has had their mccafe drinks for $2 for at least 2 years now. I had no idea they weren't that price in other areas. All other drinks have been only $1, regardless of size, including sodas. This has been for at least 2 years too.

I used to get their iced coffee all the time (the only thing I buy at Mcdonalds) since it was only $2 but since Starbucks came out with the cold brew, I get that instead since it tastes soooo much better. I am normally NOT a starbucks fan and don't really care for anything other than their cold brew but darn that cold brew is so delicious!

By the way, all our Mcdonalds also has punch cards for the mccafe drinks- buy 5 get the 6th free. Make sure you ask your Mcdonalds if they have a punch card because they don't seem to make it known voluntarily, lol.

Here, a large regular coffee with milk at McD is $1.  Can't find it for that price anywhere else, including the gas stations.  And I like the taste!  Win win.     And there are 2 drive-thru windows so the line moves fairly quickly.

With my coupon card, at DD it's $1.96.  Without coupon card, it's $2.28.   BUT, there's always a line and it's frustrating to wait so long to get 1 coffee.

At the gas station, it's $1.80 but I also get 3 cents off a gallon of gas for each coffee I buy.

All this talk of coffee and soda is making me thirsty. I had forgotten Starbucks has cold-brew now. I hear it's really good and I've been wanting to try it. 

Trader Joe's has cold-brew in a plastic bottle. It's something like $7.99 for 32 ounces. I just use the drip maker for iced coffee but really want to try the cold brew. I'd make it myself if I wasn't so lazy!

McDonalds makes an excellent cup of regular coffee at regular prices.

Use to be a DD fan but the price is stupid and to many days it tastes off.

Like  that McD makes the coffee fresh every half hour.

McD. has special pricing for seniors on the small cup of coffee.  The special pricing varies among the different McD.

Starbucks cold brew was the worst iced coffee I have ever tasted in my life. I asked some family and friends before I ordered it and was forewarned but I wanted to try it for myself. It was stale, dark roasted and bitter.

I have liked, if not gone batty over, the coffee I've had at McD's. A couple of months ago I was in the mood for something different and bought a box of McCafe K-cups.

Shockingly, it has become one of my go-tos in the morning; I like it a lot - and I usually drink dark roast coffee.

Yes, one of my favorites! The decaf is equally as good.

unfortunately i discovered Stumptown cold brew at my supermarket, Gelson's  -  it is rich so i can stretch a pint over some time.  a girl likes a special treat every once in a while.
