No starbucks closings around me...living in a city with a big university they would be nuts to close

I think we have like 3 starbucks and about 20 little coffee shops around

I on the other hand prefer to go and get a soda. Not a big coffee fan

No Dunkin Donuts? Take some out of my town, we have 6 in a 3 mile radius, you want some

Too bad they couldn't have just called in a napalm strike on all 600 stores at like 9 am. That would be far more spectacular and it would also have drastically decreased the population of metrosexual yuppie douchebags.

They have A LOT. We have two on my university's campus alone. They're literally less than 300 yards apart.

I still stand by Starbuck's isn't coffee, since it's not normal coffee, it's fancy drinks that happen to just contain coffee beans. Etiher way there's this little coffee shop by the university, they do a darn good Moca. I'd also like to support other local coffee houses rarther than going to Starbucks.

We have a shopping center about a mile away from our house called the Edgewood Retail District. There's a Starbucks in Borders, Target and Kroger. These stores are ~500 feet away from each other. Plus, there's a Carribou and another coffee house in the same shopping center.

This country loves its coffee, dontcha know? ::laughs::

Happily..my Starbuck's ain't on that list. I was really sweating bullets, I was.

NOT!

My personal quest is to decimate every Starbucks worldwide in a hope that the pretentious douchebag population inside is very high.

Consider it a preppy cull.

It will be foamy and dangerous

We have one on our Uni campus too... and it's a small university! lol

I agree, we do need more Tim Hortons!

Apprently, Google maps says there are only 9 Starbucks in and around my city, though, that has to be outdated, it also says there are 5 Costa Coffee's around the area, but I've only ever seen 2... and one has just been built about 5 min walk away.

(There's 24 subways too

, but that's not for discussion

[there's also 29 McDonalds. I had to check...)
