1. Guess you didn't venture too far out of the Midwest Express Center, mad...
...cuz there's one right down the street from it.

I don't know about Mad Town, but we've sure got 'em in Brew Town.

How ya doin' by the way??

2. I thought that there was one in Kenosha
(my birthplace) so I looked it up. It's still there on Sheridan Rd.

12. Kenosha or across the border in Zion?
There is a Dunkin' Donuts about five miles south of Kenosha in Zion (I pass it all the time).

Who needs Dunkin' Donuts when you have Culver's?

5. We had at least 1 in Milwaukee close recently - Hwy 100 & SS
Edited on Mon Mar-07-05 09:31 PM by Cyndee_Lou_Who
was one. They were a Dunkin' Dounuts/Togo's combo. I was told others in area closed, too.

Probably best. I don't NEED that.

11. I've got all the Dunkin Donut shops I can STAND in NJ
I want KRISPY KREME!!! WAAAAAH!

There's One in Brick, NJ, but that's 70 miles away, and one even further south than that, near Atlantic City, but that's all for the whole state.

:sigh:

19. And at some of the A&P stores, but you're right.
It ain't the same as a warm glazed just off the 'waterfall'.

16. Just went to one about 2 weeks ago

21. Steak n' Shake= my first waitressing job
saddle shoes and greasy food, coming home at night with pockets full of change... if you were lucky enough to get a bill as a tip you'd probably have to wipe the ketchup off before you could spend it!

25. There were none in Vegas last time I went, either
But, Dunkin Donuts is a bright red company... Starbucks is blue. However, I hate Starbucks coffee.

32. Yeah, but it's freeway food, not the same.
But better than nothing. We used to party on the East Side, then get in the car and drive to Chciago for White Castles and then drive home eating a sack of them...
