Meh. Peets!
I've never been to a DD. I think it's more east coast than west coast. But I do love Krispy Kreme, is it similar? (To be fair, I haven't had a donut in a long time, so I'm a bad judge of donuts in general although I love them and now crave them.)
I think Krispy Cream is like king and all other doughnuts are it's lieges.
ETA: I don't think I used lieges correctly, did I? I think I meant subjects.
Leave me alone. I'm reading The Outlander right now.

Yeah, so do we. But do you guys have PINs for them? Because I told FI I lost mine and he was all "Check your account, make sure no one's using it" and I looked at him like he was an idiot.
I think mery stated it much better than I could, you can put your ticker up all you want, that's your prerogative, but I'm still going to roll my eyes at it until it says 8-12 weeks. It's a personal opinion that is shared by others.

I understand (well, not completely) the excitement of wanting to share, but personally, I wouldn't tell anyone but family and close friends. That's just me, just stating an opinion in FFT.

Yea, they have pins. But when you pay, you always have the option to press credit instead of debit. It still debits your account, but...really, I don't know what the difference is besides not having to enter your pin. You just sign instead of using your pin when you use it as credit.
All better I was trying to use the shock factor on her of finding us in that position when she went back to look. I forgot to change it back before I posted. Sorry.

Yes we have pins, but for some reason some banks will charge you to use your card as a debit card vs. a credit card. It does the same thing. We just always say credit when they ask "Debit or Credit?" I never use my pin.
