Local Starbucks may have dodged store closures - Ft. Bragg Advo...

Fort Bragg's Starbucks outlet will apparently remain open, surviving the closing of 600 stores which was announced two weeks ago.

I don't live in Ft. Bragg, but my parents do. And it blows my mind that they (and lots of others) go to Starbucks. You have a variety of VERY GOOD independent coffee shops and roasters in your area. That would be like going to McDonalds for a hamburger instead of to Jenny's Giant Burger or Lorrell Deli. In Benicia, Starbucks has nearly run all the independents out of town (only 2 non-Starbucks cafes left).

I am so glad, with gas price up here in Ohio people aren't willing to shell out $5.00 a cup or more for coffee. Six Stores are closing State wide. One locally. I shall be back in the fall might stop in again...

Trevor, I agree. There are plenty of really good coffee shops that sell at half the price of Starbucks.
