I work in a restaurant.  We used boxes of plastic straws that had 300 straws per box, and needed a new box about every five days.  We are open seven days a week.  That's about 60 straws a day, and, assuming we are open all but about 5 days a year for holidays or emergencies, that's 21,600 straws used per year.  Does this help?  We only use straws with smoothies and juices.
