I’ve been going to the Wayzata Caribou Coffee since about 1992. Lately, I find myself there several times a week in the morning as I stop by to get my liquid motivation for the business day.
This morning, the staff informed me that my usual drink is so well known, that instead of adding all of the details (read: “customizations”) they simply enter a memo stating “Kevin Mocha.” — How cool is that?!
What is a Kevin Mocha you ask? Its a small, skim mocha, less chocolate and no whip. And its about the healthiest mocha I can create to appease my doctor but feed my habit. — So if you stop by that particular store (in the morning) ask for one!
Apparently, I need to visit the store a minimum of 3 times a day, 6 times a week before I get my own button on the screen. I’ll work on that.

Dude, I don’t wanna do the math for you, but if you’ve been going to Caribou for 14 years, the amount that you’ve contributed to that store should get you a heckuva lot more than a memo entry!
But, if you start going there 18 times a week, you may as well have your own seat there — better make it a couch.

Too funny! I thought for SURE that Tamer would point out that the “Kevin Mocha” listed is actually “Kevin Mocha 2.0″ … the original “Kevin Mocha” was a Medium skim mocha with whip and marshmallows ontop instead of chocolate shavings. — But then I had to get all healthy and stuff.
I’d trade a couch for a free pass on their internet. I’d probably be there even more often if they did that!
