Olivia and I had a quick pop-in to Starbucks by the mall while we were out and about this afternoon. I ordered a cold brew, and she ordered a Frappuccino.
My drink came out almost immediately, but Olivia’s was nowhere to be seen after 10 minutes, so I asked the staff if her order had gone missing.
They had a very good excuse: while we were in line, an order for 390 Frappuccinos came in, and each one generated a sticker to be stuck on the cup. That’s a lot of stickers, and Olivia’s got lost in the sea of them. They were very quick on the rebound, and she had her drink in-hand about a minute later.
But, 390 Frappuccinos!
Who in Charlottetown ordered 390 Frappuccinos on a Monday afternoon?
How do you transport 390 Frappuccinos?
Does a Starbucks have enough Frappuccino gunk to make 390 Frappuccinos?
The mind boggles.
