Craving a quad venti non-fat latte with extra foam? You might have to drive an extra two blocks to a different Starbucks location. No Howard, say it ain’t so! 600 Starbucks are closing throughout the U.S. and now they have announced 19 will be closing in your backyard. 

Is it just me, or doesn’t it make sense that the easiest thing to do is to lower the price of the coffee and help out you and me, the consumers? They are spending millions of dollars on severance packages for employees and other closing bills. Why not just cut the cost of the coffee. People flock to your store and everyone wins. I’m not a business major, but doesn’t this make sense?  

Check out the this list to see if your favorite Starbucks will soon be empty.

We spent our scorching hot Sunday at the 76 station in Tacoma. The fun didn’t stop all afternoon with the free gas wheel, goodies from 76 and KMPS, and KMPS temporary tattoos! Kristina the intern had fun tattooing the listeners…probably because she kept cool with the squirt water bottle! We had listeners of all ages sporting the KMPS logo on their guns, and everyone left with a freebie, whether it be a magnet, frisbee, water bottle, $10, $20, or $100 of free gas!!!

Remember to check kmps.com for upcoming events because you don’t want to miss out on the great time and free prizes!

So not only do we have to worry about sky rocketing gas prices and salmonella tomatoes but we have to watch out all for other salsa ingredients including jalapeno pepper products and fresh cilantro too. Yikes! Maybe I shouldn’t have given my neighbors salsa for the 4th of July! And cover that cough and keep those hands washed because whooping cough is going around.   

Check out the salsa story here and look at this to see if you may be at risk for whooping cough.

Miss Washington shows that she not only has the princess wave down, but the single finger wave too! Now little Elyse is a sour apple! What do you think? Was it wrong of her to pose like this for pictures with her crown, or is it okay because she was “off the clock?” 

Check out our little “Sour Washington Apple” and let me know your thoughts!
