Buffalo/Toronto Invasion Repelled!

The Hartford Courant is reporting that Tim Horton's will close it Connecticut stores, ending the Canadian (let's face it, Buffalo is practically part of Canada) coffee shops attempt to gain a foothold in the market. While Tim Horton's may try to slink quietly back to Canada, Connecticut is planning to launch a counter-insurgency of Dunkin' Donuts; for defensive purposes of course!

  2. Oh no, if anything, there are not enough Tims in the area. I wouldn't bother stopping at a DD but when I spot a Tims, gotta stop for a donut & coffee. Trouble is, it is a treck to find a Tim Hortons.
