Like all goods and services, Starbucks coffee increases in price over time to compensate for inflation--just like how you could by a car for perhaps $600 a hundred years ago but now have to pay tens of thousands of dollars. If you've experienced a rise in coffee prices at your local Starbucks, it may be due to this, spurred by an increase in the material costs and the desire to retain the same or similar profit margins. If you're traveling to another city and notice the prices there are different, this is also normal. Different cities have different water costs, minimum wage rates, etc., so stores in different cities often differ in prices.
Laptops have different features, so different models from the same brand may cost different prices. Also, multiple stores may offer the same model at different prices. Research to find the best price for the model you want.
Of course, for the same function, the bar will be the same. But for a different function, nope.
the same, Starbucks - but there are much less of them in France, only a handful.
No, use different currencys but it is slightly cheaper in Brazil. Does this help?
Yes and no. They can be the same or different sizes for different high prices.

I drink espresso and it went up by about 40 cents, it might be the same with regular coffee. (BTW that's Starbucks prices dunno about other places)
No, different Chevy Dealers have different prices for each vehicles. Part of the way our country works is that businesses can compete for your dollar. The competition keeps prices low and effort efficient.
Starbucks simply used a bunch of ideas and called it their own. This is the same as any cafe would do. The Frappuccino, for example, was invented by one of their earlier baristas, however he never trademarked his idea.
no just different prices
Sure. That is fine if they are working for themselves, they can set their own prices. They can also charge different prices for different services or types of massage. The best advise is to charge the same, or close to the same, as other therapists in that area, but they are free to charge what they want. They are part of the free enterprise system.
