Following my goal to visit all the *bux in Ireland I was doing a little research this evening. I came across an obsessive man named Winter who I presume was the inspiration for me taking on this challenge. Not only is his goal to visit all the store in the North America (99.1% complete - ie. 8,459 stores) he wants to visit every store. In the world!!!
He has been doing it for about 12 years now and trys to visit around 15 stores a day. You can find out more at Starbucks Everywhere.
Anyway, it looks like he has visited Ireland a couple of times, most recently at the end of May this year. But in checking his records I have a feeling that he has missed some that I've been to. He says he doesn't visit "licensed" stores (as opposed to company owned) which may account for the two in Dublin airport and the one in Cork airport. But I still think that leaves him short one or two.
Perhaps I should tell him?

Hmmm...Maybe. I guess my suggestion for you to do the states would sort of be lame if someone else had already done it. Worth a shot, though. I absolutely cannot believe he is so close to visiting all in the states. How in the world does he come up with the time or money?
