Coffee too strong and expensive. |
| 2. |
8/14/2008 6:44:00 AM |
Maybe not quite weekly... but at least 3 times a month. I used to go 3 times a week! |
| 3. |
8/14/2008 6:45:00 AM |
Overpriced for the product delivered. Poor value proposition especially when compared to Dunkin dounuts and now McDonalds. Comparisons to Apple are not accurate as they add real value through new products. |
| 4. |
8/14/2008 7:38:00 AM |
I buy their coffee beans more than cups of coffee. |
| 5. |
8/14/2008 7:57:00 AM |
I'm not a straight coffee drinker. I go to Starbucks (or Caribou) once a week or so to get an Frapuccino/Cooler. |
| 6. |
8/14/2008 11:28:00 AM |
If it is the only option |
| 7. |
8/14/2008 11:36:00 AM |
Expensive, even before the economic downturn |
| 8. |
8/14/2008 11:51:00 AM |
Usually Saturday and Sunday, and sometimes during the week if I have a meeting in the city. |
| 9. |
8/14/2008 12:01:00 PM |
When I am traveling I go more often because "it is there" and a known option. In my hometown, there are "locals" who command loyalty and are more conveniently located. |
| 10. |
8/14/2008 12:24:00 PM |
Have Starbucks daily in the office building cafeteria. Only stop at a Starbucks when out shopping with the "girls". |
| 11. |
8/14/2008 12:26:00 PM |
$5.00 for a cup of coffee, no thanks. |
| 12. |
8/14/2008 12:27:00 PM |
3 times a week |
| 13. |
8/14/2008 12:35:00 PM |
I've always thought they were a bit over-rated and the "click scene" for grown-ups. |
| 14. |
8/14/2008 12:39:00 PM |
Just never got in a Starbucks groove. ഊAm a big fan of Dunkin Donuts coffee. |
| 15. |
8/14/2008 12:40:00 PM |
It's too expensive--plus, I have developed an allergy to coffee(!). |
| 16. |
8/14/2008 12:44:00 PM |
Mostly when I am travelling |
| 17. |
8/14/2008 12:44:00 PM |
I used to go every morning but stopped because of the cost and the calories |
| 18. |
8/14/2008 12:52:00 PM |
Went daily 10 years ago, before having kids |
| 19. |
8/14/2008 12:55:00 PM |
Local coffee is fresher and better service. |
| 20. |
8/14/2008 12:58:00 PM |
Whenever I travel for business and I can expense it. There's no way I would ever pay that much for coffee... |
| 21. |
8/14/2008 1:03:00 PM |
I do not care for Coffee. |
| 22. |
8/14/2008 1:09:00 PM |
Generaly three times per week |
| 23. |
8/14/2008 1:13:00 PM |
I tend to make my own coffee, however, if I'm on the road (which I am a lot) I'll do Starbucks if it's the convenient option. I'll just as likely - or preferrably - do Peets, or Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, or an independent. |
| 24. |
8/14/2008 1:17:00 PM |
3'xs a week |
| 25. |
8/14/2008 1:21:00 PM |
people gasp at $4/gal gas, they should also being doing the same with $4/cup coffee. |
| 26. |
8/14/2008 1:25:00 PM |
Every pay week |
| 27. |
8/14/2008 1:28:00 PM |
I used to go regularly, 2-3 times per week. And I always stopped in when I was out of town to pick up hotel coffee pot filter packs. |
| 28. |
8/14/2008 1:28:00 PM |
I live in a small VT town that doesn't have Starbucks (college town that should have a kiosk, in my opinion), so I go to Starbucks when I travel. When I travel, I will go daily. |
| 29. |
8/14/2008 1:30:00 PM |
Not a coffee drinker |
| 30. |
8/14/2008 1:35:00 PM |
sometimes 2 or 3x per week, but not every day |
| 31. |
8/14/2008 1:40:00 PM |
3 times a month |
| 32. |
8/14/2008 1:58:00 PM |
When I am traveling, I go to Starbucks almost every day. I use it as an "in town Red carpet Club" thanks to the mix of beverages and food, Wi-Fi and seating. |
| 33. |
8/14/2008 2:00:00 PM |
Only when I travel which is about once or twice a month. |
| 34. |
8/14/2008 2:17:00 PM |
I am not a coffee drinker. Even if I was, I would never feel justified in paying the price that Starbucks charges. |
| 35. |
8/14/2008 2:27:00 PM |
3 to 4 times per week |
| 36. |
8/14/2008 2:43:00 PM |
More as a meeting place where the price of admission is an expensive beverage |
| 37. |
8/14/2008 2:50:00 PM |
I've stopped going because local coffee houses offer a better atmosphere. Starbucks has become way too commercialized. |
| 38. |
8/14/2008 2:54:00 PM |
I worked as a Barista at Starbucks for 5 years - one year full time, and then 4 years just on weekends. |
| 39. |
8/14/2008 2:58:00 PM |
Only when I'm so desperate caffeine that ANY coffee will do. |
| 40. |
8/14/2008 2:59:00 PM |
It's on the other side of town for me. |
| 41. |
8/14/2008 3:28:00 PM |
Not very good coffee |
| 42. |
8/14/2008 3:32:00 PM |
when I want a generic basic coffee drink |
| 43. |
8/14/2008 3:44:00 PM |
I only go to Starbucks maybe 6 times a year |
| 44. |
8/14/2008 4:12:00 PM |
I used to go regularly but a combination of high cost and poor experiences moved me from multiple times weekly to when convenient. Dunkin Donuts and home brewing has filled the void. |
| 45. |
8/14/2008 4:12:00 PM |
When I drink coffee, it has to be dressed up. My friends make fun of me b/c my coffee isn't brown - it's beige. I'm a prime target for their specialty drinks. |
| 46. |
8/14/2008 4:23:00 PM |
I go to Starbucks when I travel and when the airport I go through has an outlet. They are convenient and their coffee is acceptable. |
| 47. |
8/14/2008 4:28:00 PM |
I used to go more often, then switched to a weekly Friday treat for budget reasons. Now I'm even thinking of going less often. |
| 48. |
8/14/2008 4:28:00 PM |
I love Starbucks when traveling through US, for instance recently in Utah on way to Monument Valley, where the coffee was slightly brown colored water |
| 49. |
8/14/2008 4:57:00 PM |
I go to locally owned coffee shops instead. Starbucks I use mostly for meetings. |
| 50. |
8/14/2008 5:04:00 PM |
I'm a Peet's fan. |
| 51. |
8/14/2008 5:11:00 PM |
It's a meeting spot. I don't go there for the coffee. |
| 52. |
8/14/2008 5:28:00 PM |
couple of times a week |
| 53. |
8/14/2008 5:39:00 PM |
Used to go more often, but tired of paying so much and cutting back on calories |
| 54. |
8/14/2008 5:42:00 PM |
Every morning without fail, sometimes I also go in the afternoon |
| 55. |
8/14/2008 6:07:00 PM |
But only when I'm travelling -- a good choice in airports |
| 56. |
8/14/2008 9:10:00 PM |
It is no longer my choice of cafe. But I live in Seattle and there are MANY terrific cafes, serving fantastic coffee. |
| 57. |
8/14/2008 10:11:00 PM |
my preferred Starbucks often has a line that I don't have either the time or patience to stand in |
| 58. |
8/14/2008 11:51:00 PM |
I don't drink coffee. |
| 59. |
8/15/2008 1:53:00 AM |
i am tired of seeing a starbucks on every other street/corner |
| 60. |
8/15/2008 2:39:00 PM |
Once every 2 weeks |
| 61. |
8/15/2008 4:33:00 PM |
The better choice in some towns, but if there is alternative high-end coffee I'll go there. |
| 62. |
8/15/2008 5:35:00 PM |
Starbuck's coffee is both bad and overpriced |
| 63. |
8/15/2008 6:23:00 PM |
used to go daily |
| 64. |
8/15/2008 8:21:00 PM |
I used to go a lot, but I bought a Nespresso. Too much milk. |
| 65. |
8/18/2008 2:28:00 PM |
I'm not really a coffee drinker. Will only go if meeting somone there or need a place to briefly hang out. |
| 66. |
8/18/2008 3:25:00 PM |
Weekly |
| 67. |
8/18/2008 4:13:00 PM |
I used to go almost daily, but have cut back as I try to economize. |
