I’m on the Starbucks email list. Usually they just want me to buy more coffee, but sometimes I find out interesting things, like the fact that they’re doing a “Frappuccino Happy Hour” May 7-16, where you can buy half-price Frappuccinos from 3-5 PM. I don’t think I’ve ever actually HAD a Frappuccino, but I’m usually [...]

A couple of you who are in more remote areas have recently asked about ways to take advantage of the deals, as have people looking for gluten free or other hard-to-find-deals-on items. One way to save is to watch for Amazon’s grocery blowouts. Right now, for instance, you can pick up 3-packs of several flavors [...]

Bring any reusable travel mug into your local Starbucks on 4/15, and get a free brewed coffee. It’s Earth Day and Tax Day all rolled into one!

Ahem. OK, so this just happens to be my favorite kind of ice cream, so I should completely ignore this deal and not let it enter my house. If I only had the willpower… Anyway, I read on My Frugal Adventures and other Safeway blogs about a Starbucks/Ben & Jerry’s ice cream deal: Buy three, [...]

So today… I stopped by Dominick’s after dropping Mr. 7 off at school to buy 4 of the Buddig Deli-Cuts (yes, this is the 3rd trip to Dominick’s this week since I forgot these the the other 2 times).

Don’t forget! Tomorrow 3/23/10 – Starbucks is doing a free pastry with beverage purchase (will need to print coupon or display it on your phone) until 10:30 AM. Also their new bold coffees are still on sale for $1.50 this week, so you should be able to get coffee+pastry for $1.50. Maybe you should buy [...]

Get a free pastry with beverage purchase the morning of 3/23 (til 10:30 AM) at Starbucks! Print coupon or show it on your mobile device.

This one’s for you Starbucks addicts. Over the next 8 weeks, explore their new “bold” coffees for $1.50 each (I’m guessing for a tall!). Be sure to pick up a “passport” and a coffee sticker this week, then have them sticker your passbook each week as you try a new blend. At the end of [...]
