But seriously, did they think they could sustain the kind of growth they were used to? Support your local coffee shop. Starbucks, really, isn't consistently great coffee. I love Hartford, Carideas, MoKaBe's, Kaldi's, and my own french press, to avoid paying $5.KBOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13446851881301140280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964295151319252108.post-83248890512729277072008-07-18T10:12:00.000-05:002008-07-18T10:12:00.000-05:00Hmm.

And the McDonald's and Dunkin Donuts who figured out how to make cheaper coffee taste just as good (or so people say). And people who started boycotting them for not paying the Ethiopian companies enough for their product.<BR/><BR/>That is a lot of stores, though. <BR/><BR/>Don't feel bad for a.eyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01468719598280416330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964295151319252108.post-75377131128072367652008-07-18T09:55:00.000-05:002008-07-18T09:55:00.000-05:00jeannette: you are so right, that is a good point....jeannette: you are so right, that is a good point. they over expanded. <BR/><BR/>i've read about Cairdeas but have not been there.
