The first one looks like a coffee tree.
Bear with me and my slow dial-up connection while I look at the others

Yes, the first 2 are definitely Coffea arabica.
The Palm looks like a Parlour Palm in the first picture, but a Kentia Palm in the 3rd

Thank you for such quick replies!!
I looked online at pictures of both the Coffee tree and a Gardenia. It looks like both are a very, very close possibility. Is there something else I should photograph- maybe try and capture the thickness of the leaves? This plant was only $3 in the indoor plant section at Walmart- which makes me think that it would be a Gardenia more than the Coffee tree. But I don't know....
Let me know what else I can do. Thanks!

I'm not too familiar with Gardenia. But that plant looks identical to a Coffee Plant that I got at Walmart several years ago. It hated me and anything I tried to do for it. It didn't survive I'm afraid
