I went several times last week at 5:30 am on my way into work to get coffee, and every time the coffee machine was not working. I work at Lowe's in the same parking lot as McDonald's and Starbucks. I chose to go to McDonald's because of the drive through window and the coffee is just as good as Starbucks but cheaper. three days that week the Ice mocha machine was broken so I went to Starbucks and spent the extra money to get coffee. I would think early in the morning is when people buy the most coffee, and the machine would not always be broken. Many of my co workers have had the same experience and would rather spend more money at Starbucks for the convience than the hassle of the McDonald's on Manhattan Blvd. Every time someone says they are going to McDonald's for coffee I tell them not to waste their time.
Sincerely,
Alice Hamer
