As if you really need another reason to vote, Starbucks is giving away coffee to any voter who stops by today.

Vote!

Dunkin.

Written by Erin on October 21, 2008 – 9:12 am

Dear Dunkin Donuts, 

I really loved your bacon, egg and cheese bagels, they got be through a lot of really bad hangovers in college. But you don’t exist in San Diego, so I got over you pretty quickly. Microwaving fake egg, fake baconand a slice of cheese all on a bagel is delicious, but not really difficult. I never understood why anyone would drink your coffee- who do you think you are adding cream and sugar for me?!

After spending my first year and a half at college in Connecticut without decent coffee, I walked through an f-ing blizzard the day the first Starbucks opened near campus. That’s right I actually went outside while it was snowing, something I wouldn’t even do for class. 

With that being said, I certainly don’t believe your newest ads. But at least they’re better than Rachel Ray!

Coffee.

Written by Erin on October 2, 2008 – 3:58 am

Fall is my favorite time of year, not because of changing season or fall weather (none of that nonsese in San Diego), but becasue of Pumpkin Spice Lattes at Starbucks. I indulge myself more frequently at Starbucks in the fall for those latte’s, but noramlly I’m a 7-11 coffee drinker. 

Delicious, cheap and the 7-11 crew on 5th and Quince in Bankers Hill worry about me when don’t show up for my morning coffee at least once at week. 

I’m also loving the 7-Election ’08! Check out the site here. Coffee drinkers get to pick their presidential candidate’s cups and all ‘votes’ are counted by the UPC scanner. Apparently the previous 7-Elections have been really acurate in the last two elections. 

Currently Obama is up 57% to 43%.
