Thank you – I was thinking the same thing. Kinda sleezy.

You missed hotels. Nearly every hotel, especially the chains will always have free coffee in the lobby. I have never seen them turn away people who just stop in for a cup – as long as they don’t over do it. Just walk in, wave at the desk people like you belong there and get a cup.

Most also have free wifi that can be accessed from the lobby. If the wifi requires a password, talk to the desk people – if you don’t look like a bum, and are polite many times they will give you the wifi password if you ask nicely.

I had my car serviced today and I noticed that they were offering free coffee as well. It was actually freshly made and flavorful.

I really like Dunkin Donut’s coffee. This coming Tuesday, DD is selling its iced coffee for fifty cents (16 oz). That is not free but it is darn close to free!

Thanks David for the great post.

My favorite bookstore, Half Off, offers free coffee and tea, which is lovely when you are leisurely browsing at their books, magazines, stationary, DVDs, Cds, etc.
I don’t drink coffee at all, but I do enjoy tea. In fact…I LOVE IT!! :>)
Thank you for allowing me to comment.

I recently made the switch from the every morning Starbucks stop to brewing my own at home and it really does save a ton of money!

Also, a little trick for those who prefer lattes to regular coffee: to get that light airy texture of steamed milk, use a blender to whip up the milk before adding it to your coffee.

I roast coffee and drink plenty of it at home, but there is nothing like a good coffee and conversation at a coffee shop.
