Whoa - Starbucks to close 600 U.S. Stores…

by @ 1:13 am on 7/2/2008.

This is fully 10% of the Starbucks stores in Seattle, whatever will they do if you can’t hit a Starbucks on all four corners of every intersection? ;o)

    There’s a Starbucks in my parents’ town. It is the only place open after 4pm on Sunday. ~x~

    Hey, Joe! Here in Vancouver, Starbucks is alive and well.

    On one of our fashionable downtown streets, we even have two corner locations across the street from each other!

    Tourists love to back up the sidewalk until they can get both in their camera frame. Here’s a smart option for getting that photograph:

    And yes, they’re both always busy. Starbucks did not overestimate their market penetration when they built the second one.

    Only tourists in Seattle go to Starbucks.
    The locals drink at Tully’s.
    Which is strange, because the tea there is awful.
    But the WiFi is free.
