Pumpkin Spice Latte's are back! - Page 6

millionairegirl · 09-14-2005, 10:16 PM

I've found the grocery store/airport Starbucks aren't nearly as good as the traditional Starbucks locations. I don't think they train the Barristas properly. But I'm not entirely sure what the difference is, but I just don't think it tastes as good. Although a 1/8th discount off of each one may be worth it (if I did my math right!).

I'm going to try to hold out until October for my first Pumpkin Latte of the season. Lord knows I don't need the extra calories right now. And I'd rather delay my seasonal Starbucks addiction a little longer. Plus it just doesn't feel like Fall yet.

Oh, and the snootiness against PBR has got to stop! It's not that bad. I actually think it's the best mass produced lager type beer around. Do a blind taste test, you'll see. Although, I still doubt I'd want to serve it at a wedding (unless of course the wedding was in Oregon).

^^There was two barista's at 'my' safeway that were freakin awesome, I'm talking perfection in a cup. The others were pretty good. The ones at the Barnes & Noble Starbucks though BLEECH!

Aaaaaah, nah!! Dammit! I'm just now trying to justify my purchasing Pumpkin Spice steamers this season, and now they have that as well?????

Well, so much for wedding booze. The keg of Newcastle just got replaced with a six pack of Pabst. Everyone will just have to share.

<sniff, sniff>That may help(said G4 in a whimpering voice), but I just love the Newcastle.<sniff, sniff>

Ya know, D-phile, it's a sad day when you'd rather have coffee and cider at any party than beer....especially Newcastle. And it's even sadder that you'd want to replace it with Pabst's.

Whaddya mean "you people"?? I did no such thing! When it comes down to coffee or beer, it's all about the beer honey! You should know me well enough to know my priorities!!

Next time the Neuschwansteins/Neuhickmans are in town we'll have to go out for Pumpkin Spice Latte...if they're in season...our treat!

baileykat · 09-15-2005, 05:20 AM

Ahhh..the glory that is Pumpkin Spice! I've had several by now...but it's hard to feel like fall when it's still 102 outside!

Geesh!

But, I've allready staked out the Starbucks in Hutchinson, Kansas...there's only one! Ahhhh...they will know me well!

I will miss Tucson for one thing...my Starbucks which is right next door to Einsteins's Bagels....Pumpkin Spice Latte with Soy with a Pumpkin bagel with pumpkin schmear!

Ahhhh...pumpkining goodness!

you are all so lucky!! I do not know where the latest starbucks is here in Montana but I know there's not one in my town! that latte sounds so yummy!!

Xharryb · 09-15-2005, 08:55 AM

Grrrr... still haven't made it over to Starbucks for my own PS Latte yet, and I'm being surrounded by firther temptations. My fiance got all inspired this week and started putting out the fall decoractions in the house (looks great by the way). Among those decorations she places many pumpkin scented candles (mouth watering). Then I spend my days on here listening to you guys talk about the grand enjoyment you're getting from them.

DARN YOU STARBUCKS!! WHY CAN'T YOU BE LOCATED WHERE i DON'T HAVE TO GO OUT OF THE WAY TO GET YOU?!?!!?
