We're all about these apps that improve our lives. Apps that prevent us from rummaging around in our wallets. Apps that bring us the things we need with a couple taps on our phones.

When we're talking about our needs, we've just got to bring up coffee, for what would living in New York City be if it weren't for that completely delicious and ultimately necessary caffeine jolt we all use to start our days?

Awful. Miserable. Horrible, rotten, no good, very bad. 

So, we're stoked about CUPS, the app that allows us to prepay for our coffee at all of NYC's best cafes. 

Can we hear a finally from the audience please? You-- yes, you in the back. 

We would have to agree. 

Seriously, though, we're completely amped about skipping the line, flashing an app, and picking up our hot, tasty espresso at the cashier when we enter our cafe in the morning from now on.

There are also other perks. With CUPS' s prepaid plans, you can save up to 40% on your fuel, er, we mean coffee.

Like, you can buy 15 cups at $2 a cup. Which is great, because we all know that we all spend more than $2 a cup without stellar prepaid packages.

You can also scope out the hottest coffee shops in the city. Just let CUPS be your tour guide to the fabulous lands of NYC coffee. We'll tell you, they're all heavenly, chock full of the kind of caffeine shock that makes you feel like you can conquer the world.

Or else, the coffee is just really delicious and the ambiance in the coffee shops is fresh.

CUPs is also cool from the whole #SAVENYC angle because it makes it easier for local coffee shops to compete with the chains, like the chains whose names rhyme with Shmarbucks and Frunkin' Fronuts. 

You intrigued? Yeah, same. Check out CUPS locations and prepaid plans here. Then, get ready to get your sip on. After all, we do live in the city that drinks the most coffee in the country.
