There is another place around here who is taking advantage of this...

------------------------------------
Michigan-based Biggby's will give away coffee tonight, while Starbucks stores nationwide close for employee retraining.

Starbucks says says it wants to "reinvigorate the passion for espresso" among its workers. Stores will close from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m.
Stores with evening hours will reopen after that.

The Starbucks on Alpine Avenue in Walker says it will take orders starting at 9 p.m.

Biggby's says it will offer its entire menu for free while Starbucks is closed.

Starbucks has quality product, but ludicrious prices and snobs galore. Dunkin Donuts = nastiness that happens when you try to make up for lack of flavor by adding sugar. Tim Hortons FTW!

Tim Hortons puts crack in their coffee. Everyone in Buffalo is addicted to that stuff.

That's not true - I can go for a while without my Tims (as long as I have my four double doubles everyday).
