Coming Soon: Starbucks!

Starbucks

Well, it’s not a full size one, just a little kiosk or cart inside my Kroger. But hey, those of us who don’t live in the Pacific Northwest (or even a big metropolitan area) have to take what we can get! There’s a stand-alone Starbucks on County Line, but I don’t ever venture there. I wish they would open a full size one here, with a drive-through, but in the mean time, this is a good step.

The sign said “Opening Soon – Tuesday 1/24” so I’m pretty excited 🙂 Like Tim said, “I guess you’ll be shopping at Kroger a lot more now, huh?!” Well, I would like to, but they are quite a bit more expensive on a lot of items than Walmart. But, they do have this new Starbucks inside, and that’s a big draw for me. I can go and get whatever concoction I want, decaf in the afternoons, and enjoy my coffee while I do one of my other favorite things – go grocery shopping. Yes, I know. I’m weird that way. I went today and had a blast, and bought a lot of stuff I can’t find at Walmart, and a lot of stuff we don’t need to be eating, and spent a lot of money. Doesn’t that sound like fun? :mrgreen:

    YES……we have one in our local grocery store too, Dominicks, which is owned by Safeway. I love it, the few rare times I go grocery shopping. Esp. in the winter when you could use something warm. And I love their cold drinks too.
    Enjoy one of life’s guilty pleasures !
    Even tho I never feel guilty when I get a Starbucks, I always, say
    I deserve this !!

    skp

    I’m not a huge coffee drinker, but there’s a starbucks in my new Target! There is also a full sized one over by Crescent City Grill with a drive through. I guess that H’burg is moving up in the world! The area where they built Target, BBB, etc…there has been a lot of construction going on…..tons of new buildings. I wish that I knew what new stores and resturants were coming our way. I just love my stand alone Chick-Fil-A. I actually ate lunch there today!
