Part of me wants to say chick fil a but their breakfast….ugh. If I didn’t go all over the county for work I’d probably say Starbucks because I wouldn’t necessarily have to go there if I had a consistent place to go to every day. But it’s just easier than trying to figure out what is around/on the way to each client. It would never be Target!!
So I think unfortunately I would have to say Amazon
Ohhhhh. Tough one!!! I buy everything I own from target or amazon. So they stay. Chick-fil-a is the lawds chicken so I can’t just get rid of that. I’d have to say Starbucks goes and only on the premise that I can still use the k-cups at home. Haha.
DH sent me this not too long ago and I said Chick-fil-a at the time, but honestly I think I might switch to Amazon because while I do order from there sometimes, it's really not that often so I think I could do without.

amazon - basically almost anything i want from amazon i can get at target, and just as quickly. i would keep starbucks for the same reasons as @bows22 even though i try and find fun local places. i don't love the political/religious beliefs behind CFA corporate, but i reconcile that with the fact that they are franchises and many of the owners do a lot in their local communities.
Chick-fil-a. Never been and don't really care for it.
Also, Amazon doesn't require me leaving my house which quite frankly I sometimes don't feel like doing. Plus, when it comes to vitamins, it's so hard to find the right dosages in local stores (i.e. Walgreens, CVS, Target), so I have no choice but to use Amazon.
Also, @paytonpedro that's definitely cheating but I'll let you have it. :P
This is a tough one. I would probably say Starbucks since I go so infrequently as is. I would definitely have a hard time getting rid of Target or Amazon!
Starbucks. While I don’t mind it, and I do like some of their seasonal stuff, my Nespresso at home can make much better coffee hahaha. And when I would go out for coffee with a friend or something, I try to support local coffee shops.
Amazon, target, I can’t do without them. Just feed the massive corporate monsters right? Lol. I try to buy local as much as possible, but they’re so convenient! And they have EVERYTHING between the two. They gotta stay.
