    I have never been to a Starbucks and not about to start now. I don't need a $5.00 cup of coffee.

    Starbucks will no doubt be busy and successful. It has one great advantage.....if you go to Starbucks you can take a selfie with your coffee showing the Starbucks logo. Then you can post it on Facebook or some other social media drivel, thereby showing the world how cool, international, successful and progressive you are.

    The fact that it sells overpriced mediocre coffee is entirely irrelevant. :smile:

    The Philippines had more Starbucks than any other country outside of the US at one time. I think they are down to 10th place now. I really don't get it, the cost in the Philippines is almost the same as in the US, and it is way overpriced in the US, not to mention their coffee is nasty.
