Convenience Store Coffee - coffee on the go!

One of the expenses that can really add up for teachers in Korea is coffee!  If you're on the go, you have a few choices:

A bottle of Starbucks coffee will cost about 2,900W.  You can usually find a Korean brand sitting next to it for a few hundred won less.  Starbucks here tastes just like it does in the US.

A cup of Starbucks can be a bit cheaper.  Many different brands make these cup-style coffees.  You might pay between 1,500 - 2,000W, depending on the brand and flavor.

Bag style coffees are the cheapest: about 1,200W.  You can usually find them on a shelf near a special cooler full of ice cups.  Many brands bag their coffee, tea, and fruit drinks.  Just take the top off the ice cup and remove the safety seal.  The coffee bag always tears nicely and pours right in without any spillage.  Did I mention they are 1,200W?  They are a great deal!
