Bye bye Caribou Coffee! Hello Peet's Coffee & Tea!
Apparently, the chain is high-tailing it out of Chitown. Although a closer look behind the headline shows that the name might be going, but most locations will become Peet's instead.
So it's probably a good thing that I didn't poke my head in the door at the two locations in the 'hood that I've passed the last few days and yell "See ya suckers!" as that would have been both inappropriate and inaccurate.
Truth be told -- it don't make no never mind to me, as I've not ever grown into being a coffee drinker. I don't like the taste or the flavoring (yep, not even coffee ice cream or coffee candy makes it past my lips). If you see me with a coffee chain cup in my hands (and, with Sbucks being the most ubiquitous, that's usually the cup), you can bet that it's a hot chocolate I'm drinking.
Regardless, here's hoping that whatever company maneuverings are about to go on, the net result will be jobs saved.
