Free Pastry Day!
Hi Everyone! Today, July 21, 2009 is “Free Pastry Day” at a participating Starbucks store near you. To show you how excited we are about our new food offerings, Starbucks offered customers a free pastry with purchase of a brewed or hand-crafted beverage. “Free Pastry Day” started when the stores opened and ran until 10:30 a.m. (or while supplies lasted). Starbucks offers a long list of new morning goodies, which are now free of artificial flavors, dyes, trans fats and high-fructose corn syrup. My favorite, which gets me moving in the morning, is the Banana Walnut Bread. Paired with my favorite morning drink, it’s a great start to the day. I encourage you to try something … more »
Pick up the Pick of the Week
Hey Starbucks fans, I’m Kelly from the Music Department here at Starbucks, and I manage the Pick of the Week program. Pick of the Week offers coffeehouse customers a chance to discover complimentary new music and music videos. Each week, participating Starbucks stores stock a new Pick of the Week download card redeemable on the iTunes Store for a complimentary song or music video hand-picked by Starbucks and iTunes. We try to mix it up by selecting songs from artists you’re familiar with, as well as artists you may not have heard of, but that we think you’ll love. Some artists who have been featured in the program in the past include M Ward, Wynton Marsalis, Neko Case, Diana … more »

Together we are Shaping the Future of the Starbucks Card
Hi, Over the past few months, I have been reading your ideas and comments for incentives or special offers related to the Starbucks Card.

I’ve noticed more than anything that your ideas about offering incentives all share a common principal: you want your Starbucks Card to bring you value. We’ve heard you and have a way to give you more value than ever. Just register your Starbucks Card and when you use it you’ll get great benefits like a free tall (12 fl. oz.) brewed or hand-crafted beverage with a 1lb. whole … more »
