If you bring in your
reusable traveler's mug or tumbler to a participating Starbucks on
April 15, 2010 (i.e. "Tax Day"), they're offering to
fill it for free with brewed coffee. The environmentally-friendly freebie is to encourage Starbuck's customers to stop using paper cups. I wonder if they'll still give you free brewed coffee if you brought in the mother of all tumblers...
Note: Starbucks has offered a discount for customers who brought in their own tumblers or mugs since 1985, which makes sense since they'd save on cup costs.
The company has a stated goal to ensure all of its cups are recyclable or reusable by 2015.
I really like the way they are going by being environmentally friendly, I always bring my own container to Starbucks!
ReplyDeleteI never bring my own container to Starbucks T_T because I go their so infrequently and never plan it so the tumbler is always at home.
