It’s tea time at Starbucks. Starbucks is now pushing a line of tea drinks. To kick off this occasion Starbucks is offering a Tazo Tea for $2.00. Between Jan. 6-18, Starbucks Card Rewards members can enjoy any tall tea latte for just $2 when they use their registered Starbucks Card.
Starbucks Coffee is giving away free tall size brewed cuos of coffee to voters today. According to Bloomberg.com Starbucks may be in violation of federal election laws which prohibits payment of money, goods or services in return for voting, said David Ammons, spokesman for the Washington secretary of state. I don’t understand why Starbucks is being picked on since Krispy Cream is giving away free doughnuts if you have a “I voted” sticker and many other restaurants are giving away freebies for voters showing proof. Since the secretary of state said it’s forbidden Starbucks now has to give away free cups of coffee away for voters and non voters. Here’s a list of election day freebies.
This is just an OK deal coming from Starbucks. Starbucks at least in Seattle seems to be running deal after deal. First it was the free coffee in the morning with coupon now this nationwide Starbucks deal. Get a Starbucks Iced Grande Beverage for only $2.00 after 2:00PM for morning customers. This is a substantial price cut from the normal $4.00 for Grande Iced Grande Coffees. The only catch (It’s a big catch) you need to show a receipt from your morning Starbucks visit. So basically you’re paying full price in the morning to get the discount in the afternoon, not to mention you spent money on gas to get there. Not a good deal in my opinion coming from Starbucks and Howard Schultz, but thought it was worth a blog post. Offer runs until Septermber 2nd 2008.

Starbucks in effort to compete with competitors such as: Dunkin Donuts is announcing new incentives to get you to come back. I don’t know about you, but I’ve stopped going to Starbucks. I feel I get a much better products and overall experience at my local coffee shop (Caffé Vita) than the overpriced and under delivering Starbucks. So what new freebies do you get from Starbucks? Free Syrup shots and milk substitutes, free drink with bean purchase, free refills on drip coffee, and free Wi-Fi. In order to get these Starbucks freebies you must pay with a prepaid Starbucks charge card, which holds up to $500. One more catch I forgot to mention Wi-Fi is not unlimited it’s only good for 2 hours. Even after this I still feel I get a better deal at my local coffee shop one of which gives you a free computer and broadband time with purchase of a coffee. Let me know if you will be visiting Starbucks more often with these new incentives.
