Coffee? Are specialty coffees worth it to you?

I just got given an espresso maker, so I am experimenting till I find one I like

I only like regular coffee, i like folgers. I don't like the flavored stuff.

When i make coffe at home, I to buy Folgers.. But when i go out i must admit i love Starbucks coffees.. In the winter i love the vanilla latte and in the summer its the frappucinos. But i don't buy them that much anymore.. It is expensive.. So i do it as a treat once in a great while.+

I'm kind of weird I guess, if I'm paying for the coffee, it has to be starbucks houseblend (when it is on sale at the store), or Tim Horton's, or a flavored variety I like to try different ones, I won't pay for a tin of some cheap brand I have never heard of. Right now we have maxwell house, ot tastes ok, better than teh last tin my boyfriend bought, it was some weird brand I had never heard of and was dirt cheap. IT tasted like burnt popcorn. I still drank it, but I had to mix it with hot chocolate or something to kill the taste. So I'm sortof picky but not. I won't buy crap, but if crap is in the house I will drink it reluctantly. Oh the power of caffeine lol
