Exactly, especially soft drinks. A Starbucks coffee can be like £3 - yet if you have a coffee filter, you can buy a bag of coffee beans directly from Starbucks for £5 which easily makes 100+ coffees... so 5p a cup, maybe 15p at most if you include milk, sugar and electricity. Doesn't mean I begrudge paying for coffee when I'm out... you're paying for the time and the convenience of someone else making it for you.
