I don’t drink Starbucks
Those Cards are already paid for.
You could Donate them to a Charity and write it off your Taxes. Maybe there is a Charity called “Coffee for Veterans” who could use them.
If not, just use them. They have to spend the time and Inventory making your Coffee. Order the most complicated Drink you can think of with some extra Expresso shots.
One other thought, use the Cards to buy a Coffee Maker or Expresso Machine there.
They are overpriced, but free is free and they won’t be able to make money if someone else buys one.
Disclaimer: The ONLY time I ever visit Starbucks is if I receive a Gift Card, so you’re not alone. LOL
It hurt family owned pharmacies when Tricare Life DOD MANDATED that Ret. Military over 65 use Military Bases or Express Scripts for their daily meds. Base facilities are not set up for Handicapped, and the meds they carry depend on the base size. If you want refills it takes 5 days, and for our region come out of Pensacola. ES takes a month to fill a script 2 weeks for refills, they uses USPS and just shove meds in your mailbox. We lost our family owned Pharmacy of 30 yrs and they looked out for you, the base and ES you are just a number.
We get our neighbors meds, occasionally, NO ID SIGN for needed. And they don’t care what the weather is, drugs are heat, moisture sensitive. If you don’t you pay full retail for your meds. You are allowed emergency scripts at a private pharmacy. At least force ES to have ID Sign for. NEVER give them your credit card, use a check. They are known for Fraud.
Give the gift cards to the homeless.
I’ll gladly take them off your hands (:
Oh, crap. No more vanilla Frappuccinos.
SBUX already has the money for them. Make sure the cards get used to force them to deliver the product they have already been paid for. Find a SBUX customer and sell the cards to them, even at a discount if necessary.
I don’t spend money at Starbucks because I never liked their coffee. I still prefer Gevalia even after they eliminated my favorite brands of their coffeess
Only if you respect someone who has spent her entire adult life, trying to steer America away from the heritage of the American people. I knew that he was a social radical; but, still, would have hoped that a successful businessman was not so totally without moral compass as to endorse this committed enemy of everything we used to stand for.
I am not a Starbucks patron, so I cannot really join a boycott of what I have never patronized. But one can pass on encouragement.
