So little beard will be running a A/F car?

Did I read that right?
 
My thoughts are this has alot to do with DDs lack of a following in the area outside of New York/New England. I travel frequently, and have to SEARCH to find a Dunkin mot of the time (while driving by 10 or more Starbucks and Krispy Kremes).
 
I guess I'm lucky then, I have a DD 3 minutes away from my house.

I have 6 of them within 5 miles.. Remember the old slogan "Dunkin Dounts, it's worth the trip" well around here, it's "Dunkin Donuts, we're just around the corner"
:)

Why would you drive by a Krispy Kreme for Dunkin? I'm happy there sticking a toe in the NHRA water and think they have a satisfactory product, but a fresh hot Krispy Kreme can't be beat:D.

Nice to see that go on an A/Fuel dragster. I think that's where the future of Top Fuel is eventually going to go at some point do to spiraling costs and safety issues.
 
Krispy Kreme folded overnight here a couple of years ago. All of the Dunkin Donuts stores in Arizona were closed last week for "remodeling" in preparation for expansion from what is now zero stores to 150 - right!
If this is a nationwide trend, I doubt this is going to amount to much. JMHO

For the coffee! I never said I didn't stop in KK for a vanilla creme on the way.

I've been thinking that talk about a recession is overrated but when I woke up and heard on the news that you should use your gift cards before the stores go out of business such is the case with Sharper Image, I think wow no matter how bad thinks have gotten in the past I've never heard something like that before. And then hear about Krispy Cremes closing and I think it looks like were heading for a correction in the retail sector. And with gas at 3.30 per gallon and climbing I'm afraid we have a hell of mess heading our way.
 
speaking of corrections.......I wonder how long a $7 cup of coffee will last if (when) the economy sputters?????

One of my co-workers told me that Starbucks is testing some lower priced coffee choices at a few locations.
 
coffee, black, 2 sugars per every 8 ozs... i like the taste of coffee, if i wanted hazlenuts, i'd eat them, if i wanted mocha, i'd eat a bloody candy bar.

now at DD, it's a couple of maple bars and I have my own coffee from home.
donuts good, paying more than 75 cents for a cup of coffee is insanity.

A friend of mine owns a couple of DDs - as of about 5 years ago the total cost of a medium coffee was around .15 (including the cup, electricity and the labor cost to pour/sugar/cream it).

And I thought there was a markup on liquor at the local watering hole!
