I stand corrected. Starbucks is the "new" Dunkin' Donuts
Interesting news today from Top Pot Doughnuts.
The Seattle Times reported that the small chain that's been providing doughnuts to Starbucks company-owned stores in 25 states will go nationwide April 8. All 7,000 of Starbucks company owned stores will now serve doughnuts.
Gee. $1 coffee and doughnuts. Sounds a lot like Dunkin' Donuts to me.
Starbucks seems to be so desperate to stop the marketshare slide it's willing to abandon its brand principles. I wonder what's next? Can anyone say, "I want fries with that?"
