Poll: Would you pay $8 for a coffee?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

A coffee could soon cost as much as $8 a cup if bean prices continue to climb, say local coffee dealers.

Cafe owners say they’re watching the prices closely and if they continue to rise they’ll soon have to follow suit.

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
