Not that Starbucks isn't already expensive as it is, just because this location is in Mandalay Bay all of the drinks were at least $1 more...c'mon seriously! But even with all my griping I still bought it because nothing hits the spot more than a Grande Caramel Macchiato with an extra shot on those mornings when you think you're young enough to go to sleep at 5am and wake right back up at 9am because your kid won't take no for an answer.
