The Starbucks Challenge

A while ago the starbucks challenge briefly caught my attention before escaping my sieve-like mind again (could someone just toss me a bottle of ritalin already?).
Fortunately Gib brought the challenge to two local starbucks outlets - read about his experiences here and here.

  1. Well, thanks for the mention. But you know, there are still quite a few untested ones here in Vienna…maybe you want to join in? The challenge will be open until the 31st!

  2. Yeah, well, perhaps i’ll test one, but i don’t go to starbucks that often anymore because their no-smoking policy pisses me off. Coffee without cigarettes? Wouldn’t work for me.
    So when i end up there i usually just order a chai tea latte or something along these lines and i guess there’s no fair trade variety of those.

  3. They don’t have outside seating for smokers over there?

  4. They do have outside seating for smokers, but i’m not quite insane enough to try that with freezing -2 degrees celsius outside - at least not as long as there’s still a plethora of traditional cafes all over town where smokers are free to slowly kill themselves in a warm and cozy environment.

  5. Please, quit discussing coffee and cigarettes. It’s hard enough as it is :(
