Dunkin Donuts

I love Dunkin Donuts. I hate Krispy Cream. I love DD because their doughnuts are less greasy to me. I only eat old fashion doughnuts because I can't deal with the sugar on the other types of doughnuts, they make me feel queezy. My favourite coffee is their Cafe con Leche or Latte. Their regular coffee is damn good too.

They have this DD Rewards program and I signed up right away. I thought I could get a DD rewards card to put on my key ring, but it doesn't work like that. At first I was pissed off about that, then after thinking about it off and on I realized this was inconvenient, but brilliant at the same time.

The company is actually saving themselves losses by making you purchase a rechargeable DD card. The offer is you save 10% with the card, the catch is you need a card that will hold 2-100 dollars. This is a good move on their part because the 10% only applies with a prepaid card. This prevents customers from sharing their discount with others. So not only did you just give them 2-100 dollars in advance, you will only use your discount for you, there is an exclusivity with it. Other people will buy in too.

Next month I will be getting said card because it makes financial sense. I will put like $50 on it because when I go I usually spend anywhere between 12 to 40 dollars. I buy a box of joe, 2 dozen doughnuts, 1 Cafe con Leche and a breakfast sandwich of sorts. I do this for my job place because it is necessary at times, coffee run for late night coding etc...

Yes I just wrote a post about DD, no I don't work for them or get a commission, I just love DD. It's not even an American company which is amusing because I usually try to go American all the way.

I hate Starbucks, their coffee tastes like burnt shit usually. I will have a Latte there when I am desperate.
