Why is everything so expensive? It's a tale as old as time, but seriously, I'm just trying to grab a little sweet treat (multiple times a week), and it's really adding up. We're all in the seasonal blues, just looking for that small dopamine boost, only for our bank accounts to shut it down immediately. So what, we're just supposed to suffer and be bored?

Sure, I could get something cheaper like a plain black coffee, but like I said, I'm trying to make the experience enjoyable. It's not about the caffeine, it's about feeling like a person who treats themselves (and it's a little about the caffeine).
