Starbuck's is the type of retail establishment that would be a front line casualty of sluggish economic times. People are budgeting their money more carefully, and the first place to save is on that $4 cup of coffee each day.
Yeah.... you could use that coffee money to buy a gallon of gas.
I've never seen the attraction of Starbucks. 7-11 and Dunkin' Donuts have better coffee and their sooooo much cheaper.
