Was only allowed 100 shares of DNKN at 19, but bought some more when it opened at 25.

    has about the same prospects as a starbucks or kirspy kreme.

    not bashing them, but they are not going to be some phenomenal growth stock.

    Dunkin donuts does well on the east coast but does not fare well in the Albuquerque area where new stores end up closing soon after they open and there is only 1 in Sante Fe.

    Have you followed Panera Bread ? Dunkin is only an east coast coffee shop, and their IPO was done so that they could build
    new stores in new locations. They could easily outperform Panera.

    I agree with you 100% other than I think the donuts are great and the coffee is marginal.

    Thanks for the laugh.

    East coaster all my life, my folks love the coffee. Get them a pound or two every time I get a chance to stop in. Of course, if they have a bavarian creme filled, that one comes home with me image

    Nope, don't own any stock for DuhDoe's. We've only seen one store shut down. More Krispy Kreme's have come and gone... The Bright Orange Light on does not draw me... image
    Do your best to avoid circular arguments, as it will help you reason better, because better reasoning is often a result of avoiding circular arguments.

    I miss Dunkin'! None here in AR though I thought they had been working with a realtor in Little Rock last year. I would LOVE to have a store or two but the franchise fee was out of my league. image

    I thouroughly believe i could make a mint down here with DD. When the best place for just a cup of coffee (not fru-fru drinks) is Mickey-D's, I KNOW DD would be a hit.

    "Dunkin donuts does well on the east coast but does not fare well in the Albuquerque area where new stores end up closing soon after they open and there is only 1 in Sante Fe."

    I know the one in Santa Fe well - St. Francis Drive. Always stop there for a coffee and a donut to ward off fatigue when traveling to Los Alamos. Come to think of it I think this is the only one I'm aware of in my travels through the Southwest.

    I stop at DD every morning - love their coffee. I cannot stand starbucks coffee - like their fraps on hot days though.
    I might buy some stock- the ones around me are always crowded.

    Local 2 location Country Donuts beats Dunkin Donuts coffee and donuts by a mile. Did you know Dunkin has their donuts trucked in. Country makes them on site.

    panera is more of a restaurant.

    SBUX, KKD, DNKN are specialty food and drink stores.

    Sorry but Krispy Kreme's destroy dunkin donuts. No contest.

    Try the Krispie Kreme Factory on Federal in Ft Lauderdale. Go late when the glazed are rolling hot off the rails. Just be prepared to eat a dozen image

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.
