Starbucks yesterday "announced the latest expansion of Starbucks Delivers to five new U.S. markets, Atlanta, Denver, Phoenix, Philadelphia, and New Jersey, as well as further expansion in the New York Metro. The delivery program, which initially launched as a pilot in partnership with Uber Eats in late 2018, is now available in a total of 16 major U.S. markets and will reach national availability in early 2020.
The Starbucks Delivers program makes available approximately 95% of core items from the Starbucks menu, with customers "able to customize their orders as they would when ordering on the Starbucks Mobile App."
Starbucks noted that in addition to the US, it has launched delivery programs in more than 15 global markets, including Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Singapore, the U.K., and Vietnam.

I guess that the folks at Starbucks didn't see the Houston Chronicle piece about sustainability referred to in this morning's Eye-Opener.
One of the things I like to do if I have a hankering for Starbucks during the afternoon is put a leash on the dog and take her for a walk there. Seems to me that if I'm going to indulge myself during the day, I ought to get a little exercise doing so. Getting a cup of coffee delivered seems sort of decadent to me.
