I drink it once in a while but I prefer to brew my own (extra strong) from their French Roast beans.

I have to admit that I got hooked on their drip brew for a while, but this was once a week, on really long nights, and they guy behind the counter would fill my travel mug for $0.50, no questions asked. That $5 gift card lasted quite a while.

Well I guess I'm taking the Consumerist approach here, pointing out a fault in a company which I still use on occasion. Truthfully next to every single coffee shop here has the same pricing plan so it could be summed up as 'coffee business in BC'

Hopefully they'll get Clover 1s in stores soon (With competent operator, of course. Coffee made on a Clover 1 by someone who isn't quite sure what to do is awful.).

Some stores in Seattle, Boston, Miami and Bay Area already have them... Other than that you are SOL.

This will piss you off even more... When they make the espresso, the machine actually brews TWO shots simultaneously. If you order a single espresso, they THROW THE OTHER SHOT OUT. So in reality, it doesn't cost them ANYTHING AT ALL when they charge you for the doppio.
