I was on ebay trying to find something to buy with the 20% cashback and I found a good Starbuck's deal. The seller has two cards good for any drink, any size off the menu for 5 bucks and free shipping. he/she has over 10 of these. Bing cashback is an instant 1 dollar back so for four bucks you could get two Vinti frappichino's, pretty good deal

How much would a venti frappuchino normally cost, like $5-6 at most? Why bother to go through all this effort to save ~$6?

That is true here too. Their brewed coffee is pretty cheap. But, I got a venti peppermint mocha there a few days ago and it was about $4.70 with tax. I have to get at least one every winter :)

by sticking it to the man you're sticking it to the farmers who harvest your beans, unless Starbucks buys fairtrade now?

She's pretty hot; although the holsters make her hips look too big.

i get starbux once in a while, the venti caramel mach is 4.32

i usually fund my trips with gift cards other people that hate starbux get from yet other people, so my kids and i drink for free. if i had to actually pay them for it, id expect better coffee.

starbuckss is getting expensive everyday

The price of coffee seems to jump universally no matter who is selling it. Starbucks is still the cheapest place for a regular brew besides the local gas station around here. Dunkin Donuts and Panera are .25 more expensive per cup on average.

Caribou is by far the worst for me. Most drinks are a good .75 more expensive.

Also on some drinks (latte's) they put in 1 less shot of espresso.

I prefer Starbucks to Tullys, to my shame. I don't drink coffee and Sbucks has better non-coffee drinks. Tullys and most other places are too sweet. There's a small local chain called Mercurys that makes a damn good chai latte though, best around.
