Set a budget for the whole order
An item under $5 is not the same as a complete meal under $5. Taxes, drinks, sides, spreads and delivery fees can add to the total. Start with the amount you want to spend, then work backwards from the checkout price.
The under-$5 filter on our menu page uses reference prices before tax. Treat it as a way to find options to investigate, rather than a guaranteed local offer.
Compare the small details
- Compare the same serving size when looking at two drinks.
- Check whether a bagel price includes a spread.
- Look at a bundle’s included items and quantity before comparing it with single items.
- Review the pickup total separately from the delivery total.
- Use the price sort to spot lower-cost options within one category.
Look at offers before building the order
Open the official app and review the offers available to your account and location. Read the conditions, expiry date and eligible items. An offer that requires a larger purchase is only useful if you wanted that purchase already.
This guide does not publish invented coupon codes or promise an always-available discount. Promotions change, and the official app is the right place to confirm them.
Make a repeatable shortlist
If you have a regular coffee routine, save a few straightforward choices. Knowing your usual size and preferred add-ons makes it easier to compare an offer with what you would otherwise spend. A smaller order can sometimes be the right choice; a bundle is not automatically better value for you.
