I just realized today that they are building a Starbucks about 2 blocks from my work...not good, not good at all. The only thing that will probably save me from this is that there is an even better organic, fair trade drive thru coffee place about 10 blocks from my work...I would so much rather have them support my coffee addiction than evil corporate Starbucks (although they really do make the best damn Caramel Macchiato's). As a side note, this now means I drive 5 coffee shops on my way to work (the 10 minute drive to work). How addicted to caffeine are we as a country that on my 10 minute drive to work, I drive my 5 coffee shops?

how sad is it that the new one by golds gym is to far from me. i seriously whine there isn't one on my street!
In Portland there is one coffee shop per every 18 people. And there are like 2.5 million people that live here. Do the math! We are a VERY caffeine addicted society ; )
Starbucks gets to be sooooo expensive once you develop the addiction. In one pay period, I added up my Starbucks transactions, & it was almost a hundred bucks.
that was an eye opener!
...but the winter season is approaching...and I am in LOVE with their gingerbread lattes....ugh!
Yikes! $100 dollars. I should do that too I bet you mine adds up as well. I have one next door to my office building...they are so hard to ignore.
