yeah
i think Starbucks is running into town
collecting the money
and splitting
leaving the poor coffee junkies to fend for themselves

Witness Bill Gates & Sam Walton.

We don't hate Sam Walton...we hate what his heirs did with the company once he died....Sam Walton ALWAYS said that he would not go where he was not wanted.....NOW look what they've done to Small Town America!

I am afraid Small Town America was in big trouble prior to Sam Walton's heirs coming to town...it went away with suburbia and the loss of small farms.

Walmart and Starbucks etc, etc, etc, are not the disease. They're a symptom. Get over it.....it's not going away.

Ain't that the truth....life isn't a Normal Rockwell painting any longer- thank goodness for that too, in a lot of ways.

I love Starbucks. But, the fact that it's going to be in PDC disappoints me. I made my kids boycott McDonalds when we were there (or was that Cozumel?). So, I guess I'll play fair and not go to Starbucks until I get back home. I can last 1 week without. Boy, can anything stay somewhat remote and non-commercialized?

itsmysecondtime · 10-11-2006

Anybody please tell me just where is this one particular Starbucks?

You can get the genuine BM beans on the net for under 30 bucks including shipping.

HEB Central Market is always expensive in Houston.

Where can we get BM for 30? Online?

aaaahhhhhhhh, can't wait to have a mocha frap. on the beach. I am addicted, we get a starbucks card from the boss at work so everyday it's something. Love the Pumpkin Spice Latte

Limited time offer on that one!

Still haven't heard where it's going to be?

**Heather** · 10-14-2006

The ad didn't say where it's going to be. My guess is that it will be in Paseo Mall, along with the McDonalds, Carlos and Charlies, Subway, and Johnny Rockets.
