dilemma

I am dying for a mocha light frappuccino from Starbucks. I can easliy walk across the street to get one. But here's the deal - there's sort of an unwritten rule here in the office that you don't go to Starbucks without asking everyone else if they want something. And of course there's always at least five people that want you to bring something back for them. I'm in no mood for that shit. What do I do? I can't just go and get one for myself without asking, because inevitably the questions will arise when I am spotted with my frosty cup of cheer. And then I will be impaled.
