This morning I went out and got Dunkin’ Donuts for a rehearsal that we were having at the apartment.
Dunkin Donuts has many memories and a very emotional response to many of those who grew up around Dunkin Donuts. Here are some of the things I know about the extents to which others will go for DD:
· I know someone who will ship their father bags of Dunkin Donut’s Coffee a thousand miles because the coffee is “So freaking amazing….”
· I have a friend that will recite their old commercials verbatim from the late 1980’s
· Some people will refuse to do anything, but as soon as you mention going to DD, they are off the couch, with shoes on, and happy as a clam to get out of the apartment
· Dunkin’ Donuts has a power over people to make an early morning meeting or rehearsal ok
· Joe Biden had a racial slip at a Dunkin’ Donut
· In NYC, Dunkin’ Donut’s were giving out a pound of coffee beans to people who donated blood (because that’s a good idea)
· They use Styrofoam for their coffee in their shops, and that is no body’s friend.
Here are some of those commercials in case you need a walk down memory lane:
