I think that it is brilliant that Barnes & Noble include Starbucks in their stores. Like Haley, I enjoy drinking a warm beverage while curled up reading a book. You see a lot of different businesses having relationships with one another. For example, on West Street in Keene there is an Irving gas station and inside it is a Dunkin Donuts. That way if you get hungry while you are getting gas you can go grab a quick cup of coffee or a donut. Also in the Keene Target there is a Starbucks inside that if you get hungry or thirsty while shopping you can grab a cup of coffee or a treat. It is smart that businesses build relationships with one another because in the long run they both win from the situation. I can pick up my laundry detergent from Target and get a cup of coffee and a cookie while I head out the door. Especially if a parent brings a kid with them shopping and they want a cup of hot cocoa they will beg their parents until they give in and buy them something from Starbucks, brilliant!
Do you ever find yourself giving into that temptation? That if you go to Target for a bar of soup or a CD that you end up purchasing a cup of coffee at Starbucks as well?
