Starbucks in July released its plan to close some stores across the U.S.

Regulars of these locations, including two in Edmond, one in Del City and four in Oklahoma City will have to find another shop to satisfy their caffeine fix.

On Friday, four of these stores will shut off their espresso machines and steamers for the last time.  These include:

15th and Santa Fe, Edmond

Danforth and Santa Fe, Edmond

NW 122 and Pennsylvania, Oklahoma City

Broadway Extension and Britton Road, Oklahoma City

Is there a silver lining?  A barista at one of the Oklahoma City locations said there were some good deals to be had, while other merchandise will be moved to other stores.  Just in time for Christmas, customers can get mugs from $5, syrups for $3, Christmas ornaments for $4 and 20% off other selected merchandise.  Their Christmas Blend coffee is also on sale.  

If you or someone on your gift list is a coffee enthusiast, you may want to check out the deals at your nearest closing Starbucks.  But act quickly, they won’t be there after Friday.

Metro-area locations to remain open include:

NW 36 and May Avenue

Reno Avenue and Mickey Mantle

Interstate 40 and MacArthur Boulevard

Northwest Expressway and Independence
