This is going to work just about as well as Target did. Unless their coffee is cheaper than Tim Hortons AND McDonalds it's not gonna work. I can get an extra large double double at McD's for $2. at Tims it's like 50cents more. So Dunkin is gonna have to have an extra large coffee for less than $2 to be a success here. And it's not like it has to taste good, I mean hell Tims is just mud in a cup that may or may not get stirred, it just has to be cheap.

    I don't know, they're a very American brand, maybe not as much as Tim's is Canadian (in the sense of brand perception/ cultural significance). Even though McDonald's is American, it's been here so long and is so global it doesn't feel American.
