Starbucks are really everywhere.

[Humdizzy]

I have nothing to do for the summer. So me and a friend decided to visit EACH Starbucks in New York City and write reviews on each one posting them up on a blog with pictures. I honestly never knew how many were actually in New York City. There are nearly 200 on the island of Manhattan alone with like literally 3 in one spot at any given location on the island. I'm estimating that there are probably like over 500 in New York City alone. I think I'm going to be doing a lot of walking this summer.

Anyone else think this is crazy?

You said it!

I think you'll need to be crazy to do that many.

Yeah they're everywhere and so are McDonalds too.

Please tell me you aren't going to be drinking coffee at each of these?? You will never come down off that caffeine high! :blink: Good luck with the project! It is a little crazy but hey if you have the time, more power to ya!

Now would be a good time to sell ad space on your backpack again. Literally walking all over NYC. Place your backpack well in sight when visiting each place. Or even better a t-shirt message :tu:

Have fun and be safe!!!

Haha, I can't afford coffee at each one xD.

Thanks for the idea, you remembered! I might do that to raise money for coffee.

You may try to contact Starbucks to see if they want to hire you as a secret shopper!

Get a video camera and make a documentary!

I don't think I've ever come accross a StarBucks in Australia :red: . They're a video rental store right?

 

[faisj]

We don't have one in Holland but everyone knows about starbucks here...
I wish they had a franchise business model...

i was offered to be a McDonalds mystery shopper because i look so average but i decided no. starbucks may do that with you if you harp on at them

This is very cool. I would love to read the reviews. Such an original and great idea.

You know what? you made me realize there is no Starbucks in my current place of residene...Whitewater, WI. perhaps you should recommend too one of them that they move down here.

EDIT: on second thought, having just gotten back from 'The Greenhouse cafe" with a nice carmel and chocolate cappucino (turtle mocha), it's probably better the mass-produced Starbucks is not here.

Here we have Caribou and StarBux competing so we've got both on every corner

 

[yeppers]

Damn! That's crazy.

Are they all exactly the same (as in menu) ?

Visit Canada, and you will find an identical number of Tim Horton's locations.
