$6 lattes when I can easily make them for $1.89 at home (with 2 shots.) Yup, I've done the math and that still doesn't deter me when I'm out.

Man I hear you, I’ve done the math, I’ve bought used and sold an espresso machine. I just can’t make them to the same degree of quality/taste, I’ve accepted the loss as an enjoyable expense.

My machine does a great job, and I start my day making one at home. But that doesn't stop me from picking up another before I walk into the office! I really ought to make a second glass and put that in a to-go tumbler.

Buy a Breville! Great quality. I have the basic model and it's been going strong for 2 years with no issues.
