Starbucks is usually preferred over other coffee places such as Peet's or Temple. This popularity is due to the amount of advertising they have done. Which has created such a huge culture. In big cities such as San Francisco or New York, you can find a Starbucks on almost every block. Need a place to study? Starbucks has a place for you. Need a quick pick me up? Starbucks has that iced coffee waiting for you. Starbucks has become one of the many lovemarks we have in our society. Starbucks became a big part of my life when I was around 4 or 5. Whenever my mom went to go get her coffee I would tag along and get a hot chocolate. As I grew up I would try different drinks and let my friends no about them. When I would go out of town the 1st place my mom and I would go was Starbucks and we still do. Starbucks just became part of my life and I didn't even realize it.
Starbucks is a place that I have an emotional connection to because I grew up with it. I would rather go to Starbucks than to Peet's any day of the week. i hate to say it, but it's something I can't live without.
BTW I wrote this while drinking Starbucks
Breia, I agree! Starbucks is a total lovemark in our society. Whenever I think coffee or hot chocolate, I think Starbucks. There is a starbucks almost anywhere! Instead of saying "want to get coffee?" I find myself saying "Want to get starbucks?" I completely see Starbucks as a part of my life. I enjoy Temple more, because I think that the variety of different teas and drinks is better, but I have not grown up around it, and Starbucks is such an easy pick me up.
