Starbuck’s will close 300 stores, lay off 6700 workers and stop serving decaf coffee in the afternoon. Listen, I drink 2 cups of coffee a day. My “secret” formula is 4 scoops of Folgers with about 5 cups of double filtered spring water in my Mr.Coffee. Add some hazelnut creamer and I’m a happy camper. There is no way I would ever spend what Starbucks charged for coffee. I did a couple times just to try something different, pumpkin coffee or something, and it wasn’t that good. The whole Grande, Vente thing was annoying. The best tasting “expensive”coffee is sold by Panera’s and I don’t go there that often. I’m sorry for the folks that will lose their jobs, but as they say, for every door that closes, another opens. A coffee place that would sell great tasting “simpler” coffee at half the price of Starbucks would do just fine. Wait a minute, isn’t that Dunkin Donuts?
