I'm super bored so I sent this to Starbucks UK.
Dear Starbucks, Now that we’re half way through September, people are begrudgingly becoming aware of the fact that Christmas is lurking around the corner. The cold weather, financial strain and prospect of spending time with one’s family can drain people and make them feel deflated. One redeeming factor of the holiday season, to use a horrible Americanism, is the arrival of your...
