YMMV Opt-In Starbucks Rewards: 30 Bonus Stars on Nitro Cold Brew

Just in time for the winter, Starbucks Rewards has launched a new Bonus Stars promotion. As usual, these offers are YMMV, I have no clue how many people get offered each promotion. Check your emails or the latest Starbucks app offers to see if you qualify. If you do, you must opt-in to this offer by clicking the “Activate” button in your emails or the relevant button in the app.

Once you do, between November 3-9 in 2016, you get 30 Bonus Stars every time you buy Nitro Cold Brew. More specifically, the “NariƱo 70”. Cold brew is more expensive than regular coffee since it takes longer to brew, thus the “liquid encouragement” of the bonus stars. The bonus stars will appear in your account within 24 hours.

ALSO: A Deal to Help Veteran’s Groups
Speaking of Starbucks, if you want to help a Veteran’s non-profit, in their B&M stores, they have new Veterans themed gift cards. For every card that customers buy and activate (eg load money on it and use it), Starbucks will donate $5 to a Veteran’s non-profit. So instead of reloading your existing card, buy a new card and load it up. Then just add it to your Starbucks account/app, so you can continue earning rewards. You can also transfer its balance to your existing default card, so you don’t have to change your gift card routine/rotation.
