coffee shop punch cards

I love a good deal

But I never use my punch cards

I order the same thing every morning at the coffee shop, every coffee shop

Cold brew, honey or sugar, with cream (hemp milk if I’m in Oregon… in Canada they think I want weed in my coffee)

I get my card punched and save for the ‘big one’ …ya know, when you need the alternative milk and some chocolate and anything else they like to charge an extra $1.50 for that turns a $6 latte into $10

I’ve punched out four cards in Calgary at the same shop, a badge of honor

I like being a regular

I like when the barista knows my order

And I like getting my card punched because I love a good deal

And today, with time winding down in Calgary, I used a punch card
