Cup of G.I. Joe: The Bad Ass Coffee Co. is doing its part to keep the
troops alert. The Utah-based chain’s program, called Cup O’ Joe, matches coffee
donors with service men and women overseas. Donors can buy a bag of
coffee in their local store (the only Colorado location is in Greeley, 3050 67th
Ave., 970- 330-9229) or online at badasscoffee.com/cupojoe for $11.95, and
the company will ship it free to a soldier at an APO/FPO address who has registered
to receive coffee online. | Denver Post staff
Stay out of Mom’s purse: See’s packs this pocketbook with 10 ounces of bonbons, $15.35. The magnetic closure makes it cool enough to use after the chocolates are gone. The only See’s shop in the state is in the Belcaro Shopping Center, 875 S. Colorado Blvd.,
303-733-1854. You also can get them online at sees.com. | Denver Post staff
Beggin’, lettuce and tomato: Ever wondered if those dog treats, Beggin’ Strips, really taste like bacon? That’s where our good friend Steve comes in handy. Visit thesneeze.com and check out “Steve, don’t eat it!” He actually makes a BLT using Beggin’ Strips and here’s what he has to say after sampling it: “To put it simply, this is the devil’s bacon. Even a healthy dose of bread, mayo, lettuce and tomato couldn’t come close to masking the evil.”| Andrea E. Labak
