Along with us, there were three other customers who had also arrived early because we knew these cups were in high demand. Around 6:30 a.m., a store supervisor came out and suggested that we should probably leave because they hadn't received the shipment. We were also told there were no Starbucks employees available because they had called out sick, and that the Starbucks kiosk would not be able to open until around 8:30 a.m. when open time is 6am. As the morning went on, we received several different explanations from different employees. We were told the shipment never arrived, then that no one knew where the cups were, and later that they couldn't access the area where the shipment might have been. Around 7:00 a.m., the store manager, Sarah, arrived. She took our names and phone numbers and told us she would call if the cups were located or if there was any update. Unfortunately, none of us ever received a call. Later that afternoon, I called the store myself and was simply told that they had not received the shipment. That response didn't match some of the information we had been given earlier that morning, which made the entire situation even more confusing and frustrating. What disappointed us the most wasn't just missing out on the cups--it was the lack of clear communication and follow-through after we had spent several hours waiting before sunrise. Customers who take the time to line up for a limited-edition release deserve accurate, consistent information and timely updates. I also contacted Starbucks Customer Service to report what happened. They expressed concern that the Starbucks kiosk was not operating during the release and told me my concerns would be forwarded to the district manager for follow-up. I sincerely hope Vons and Starbucks review what happened, improve communication between store management and the Starbucks kiosk, and ensure future limited-edition releases are handled in a way that respects customers' time and trust. Note: was in touch with another women who was in line this morning and she said she was told after speaking to someone in the store that the box was received but lost... These things were handled poorly Von's Management!

The closest grocery store was mountain high market and though I was grateful not to have to drive to Lake Arrowhead and back I was disappointed in the high prices and mostly canned and frozen food. Despite the lack of choices, the service here was AMAZING which I have never seen at a grocery store. The couple who ran it offered homemade baklava (which was literally the best I've ever had) and even helped me take my bags to my car IN THE RAIN! Talk about going above and beyond! Also even though the prices were high and the food selection was small it was the best option in the area and the $180 spent on groceries paid for 4 meals plus snacks for 5 people which was a much better alternative than going out for every meal.
