Oh FFS! I noticed that too. Wonder if it just hasn’t changed yet? Would rather not have a controversial company’s name on the floor.

They bought out the space of a much better coffee shop in Wayland Square and opened a tacky new-age type coffee-chain clone called "Teas and Javas". Clearly designed to be a franchise and scalable, but that never happened and they still only have the one location.
They tried to do something similar in Wickford and the response was equally underwhelming.

Cost them 75 cents to make those bracelets and sold them for $38. She went too heavy on retail locations. Whoever gave her that as good advice did not have a good grasp for the retail market.

Glad we won't have to have the "alex & ani court", but I also would rather not see "Care New England Court" to be reminded of how horrible the US healthcare system is.
