YMMV Starbucks Rewards: Try Three Items, Get 75 Bonus Stars

Check your emails since I don’t know if all or some of the Starbucks Rewards members get these promotions. I post these based on the emails in my inbox since I have no way of knowing whether the promotions are available to all or some.

Starbucks continues its “charm offensive” to get people back on track with their new One-Percenter Rewards program 🙂 This is actually a pretty good deal, you earn 75 Bonus stars (that’s 60% of a Reward) if you buy one item from each of the following three categories:

  • any handcrafted Chai Tea Latte (you will also make Oprah happy)
  • any handshaken iced tea
  • any Food item (the picture has a breakfast sandwich, I think they mean food from their bakery display, not prepackaged food you get off the shelf)

So if you buy an iced tea, and the $3 Egg-Cheddar breakfast sandwich and a Chai Tea Latte, that looks to be around $10, and you get 60% of a reward back plus the stars for the purchase prices, let’s say 20 Stars. So you have 95 Stars out of 125 with this. Assuming you redeem your future reward for a $6 item, that’s the redemption-equivalent of getting $4.50~ back.

At the bottom of the email, there is a “JOIN NOW” button. When you press it, it opens a confirmation page that you are set to earn rewards through this promotion. The bonus stars will be added to your account by May 19 in 2016.

This offer ends May 9 in 2016.
