GREAT idea! In the meantime, you know what happened when I tried it. Nothing. There was no fair trade coffee in the building, as fas as the barrista could tell. Did you want me to try again, for the purposes of your study?<BR/><BR/>Andrea I’ll add this challenge to my blog in just a second. GREAT idea! In the meantime, you know what happened when I tried it.

I'll tag that post on del.icio.us, but why not try it again? Might as well give 'em the benefit of the doubt -- Maybe it was a one-time oversight? Yeah — I remember the unfortunate Dekalb incident.

This is a new store for our dinky little town and the employees are, by definition, new. This time the manager was there and she knew about the policy and knew where the fair trade coffee was. So I got my little French press pot of fair trade coffee, which was pretty good, by the way.<BR/><BR/>I don't know why there was no coffee out for me to buy or why the coffee was stored in such a weird place -but every place has SOME weirdness. I got my coffee. it was good. I was satisfied.<BR/><BR/>Andrea I did go again -and the result WAS different. This is a new store for our dinky little town and the employees are, by definition, new.

I think the nearest one is Portsmouth, I will go in one if I'm on the mainland and I see one, and post about it.

Will put a link to this post on my blog too. I tried the starbucks here and the barrista said that they were not brewing fair trade coffee at that time. I asked him if they had a schedule for brewing it. He tried to check but could not find one. Didn't ask him to make a fair trade "americano" for me? Is it considered fair if they can indeed make a "fair trade Americano" instead of brewing the coffee actually?<BR/><BR/>BTW I do not subscribe to delicious. Will technorati tags work? Great idea.
