 Hot off the press!!
Better check your state to see if there's any near you that are closing! 
*Whew* Thankfully, none in Washington... yet!

Wow, this had me worried - luckily none are here.  All of ours have gone 24 hours, too, that was their best idea ever.

 SHUT. UP.

I cannot beliiieeeevvve there isn't at least ONE closing around here. They're practically on every street corner around my house.

Seriously....I'm counting FOUR of them in a 3 to 4 mile radius, just around where I live.Zero closings in NC.

 Yay - none closing in CT!  We love the one in town (close enough to walk).

 Only a few in Texas and only one of those close to Houston.

Starbucks are every where here.  I really think they over built.  There's one here in the Barns&Noble Bookstore and across the street there is a standalone Starbucks in the strip center there.  Same stop light used to get into both strip centers!  And then you go across the freeway and there's another one in that strip center.  And I'm sure there's one somewhere in the mall across the street.  They have all 4 corners covered!!!  And then a little over a mile down the road there is one at the entrance to my subdivision, too.

 Not that I shop at Starbucks, but about 6 months ago, one opened in town (6 miles away).  It wasn't on the list, so I guess that's something for small town business.

 Closing a Starbucks here in WA would most likely cause panic and rioting in the street, LOL!

 Read it closely...there are 600 closing, that list is just the 50 closing this month, which means there are still 550 closing by the end the 2009 fiscal year.

:( for those employees.  Like you all said, the customers will be ok...there are too many Starbucks around here, too.

 None in Florida!   We actually have two right across the street from each other.  One has a drive thru and the other an inside seating area.  We feel very metropolitan in our small litte beach town with 2 together like that.

 None closing here in Georgia, that is amazing. Around where I live they are so close together I don't see how they can all survive.
