Exactly.
It's what could be called "the Starbucks effect" especially so as I sit here sipping a Starbucks drink which I could have bought anywhere in the world.
But when I was in Seattle I was determined to get coffee anywhere other than a Starbucks (there are little one-off coffee shops on every street).
Here in Scotland I suppose I would have to go to the Highlands, Inverness perhaps, to find the sort of shop I have in mind.
