I don't get this one 
Several mornings I can't help it (wake up too late to eat breakfast before I go) and have to go to DD and get a Medium Hot Chocolate & a Sesame Bagel, Toasted with butter.
I've done this a lot, and almost EVERY time I get a NEW total (I pay attention to small stuff, you forgot I had OCD?)
Check out some totals for the SAME order, accross only 3 different DD's all within 20 minutes of each other
$3.63
$2.89
$3.36
$3.01
$3.11
$3.04
From $2.89-3.63....Methinks the cocoa bean barrel is fluctuating like Oil prices.

What is it with Dunkin Donuts anyway? When I was on the East Coast on a business trip, there was a line out the damn door at the nearby DD! Why do people love their stale donuts and watered down coffee sooo much? I don't get it!!!

that sucks
canada is different.. it changes usually every 18 months
i remember when a large coffee was 1.25 (canadian), then it was 1.29. then it was 1.35 (and people were getting pissed).
anyways its 1.39 now.
but hortons here is a governing body to blue collars in canada, so maybe thats why it's a little bit more organized.

No clue, dunkin is ******* ****, cant believe anyone would eat or drink anything from that crap box.
Anyhow, the reason for the prices is that they are all franchises, so the owner sets the prices (within limits)
