Guess that does it for Suckbucks.

Too bad, they were close and convenient...although their coffee was not the best.

Yes, it is a misleading headline. But it suits the source.
This Buycott app needs to be ignored for the left wing trash it iis, but the media has its marching orders this week.
Someday we will figure out how to beat them at this social media game.

I don’t even like coffee. One time I met a headhunter at one and got hot chocolate. It was weak.

The machine in the break room where I am makes excellent hot chocolate.

Is “operational challenges” a fancy way of saying people in the mid-east drink better coffee and know better than to touch the scorched crap Starbucks produces?
