Starbucks' Corporate Skinny Latte

The days of a Starbucks on every corner (literally) may be coming to an end... with the closing of some 600 locations, seems like the economy is not fully in swing with a $4 cup of coffee, especially when said cup of coffee is actually cheaper than a gallon of gas, or should I say the gallon of gas is MORE expensive than a Starbucks coffee! And if Starbucks is having this much trouble, I wounder how the also-rans like Caribou Coffee are doing...

(I know this not a tech-related story, except when you calculate the ratio of the amount of code written to the amount of Starbucks coffee consumed)
