Dave’s coffee shop was losing too many paper cups—but no one knew why. Determined to solve the mystery, he checked the security footage and discovered the culprit: his own barista, Barry! Barry had a peculiar habit—he wasn’t just using one cup per order, but six. When Dave confronted him, Barry rattled off a list of bizarre reasons, from insulation to aesthetics.

The Great Coffee Shop Conundrum

A small coffee shop owner, Dave, was struggling with a bizarre problem. Every morning, he’d set out hundreds of paper cups, only to find that by noon, most of them had vanished—without ever being used!

Confused and slightly suspicious, he installed a security camera. What he saw was shocking.

It wasn’t thieves, greedy customers, or even a rival coffee shop sabotaging his business. No, it was Barry, his barista, using an outrageous number of cups for every single order.

The Cup Catastrophe

"Barry," Dave said the next morning, "I watched the footage. Why on earth did you use six cups for a single latte?"

Barry looked sheepish. "Oh… well, the first cup was too hot to hold. So, I put another cup around it."

Dave raised an eyebrow. "And the third?"

"Insulation!" Barry said. "I saw someone on TikTok say double-cupping was bad for the environment, so I thought triple-cupping would be three times better."

Dave sighed. "And the fourth?"

Barry scratched his head. "That was for stability."

"The fifth?"

"For aesthetics. A layered look is very trendy right now."

"And the SIXTH?!"

Barry grinned. "Backup cup. In case the customer wants a refill."

A Sustainable Solution

Dave buried his face in his hands. "Barry, we’re going broke on cups!"

Then, inspiration struck. He did a quick Google search and shouted, "Aha! Kartapack.co.uk!"

Barry blinked. "Kartapack…?"

"Yes!" Dave said. "They sell eco-friendly, ripple wall cups that don’t need double-cupping, triple-cupping, or whatever madness you’re up to. And they’ve got sustainable options that are actually designed for heat insulation."

Barry sighed in relief. "So… no more six-cup lattes?"

"Nope. Just one, high-quality, sustainable cup. And we’ll save money, reduce waste, and still keep customers happy."

From that day on, the coffee shop thrived—saving money, cutting waste, and making Barry’s cup-stacking days a thing of the past.

Moral of the story? If your barista is stacking cups like a Jenga tower, head to kartapack.co.uk/for better, eco-friendly solutions!
