Supposed to be worth £9 (well thats what the till said).
But I have my first gingerbread latte of the year, Christmas is on the way.

what store did you get that from?? As my bf just called and told me he got a cotton bag too from the Sutton store but on HUKD some (two) people got theirs yesterday and got:
Starbucks Mug Set (2 large mugs with the logos, 2 espresso cups, saucers)
1 Starbucks travel mug
2 packets of fresh Fairtrade coffee beans
250ml bottle of Gingerbread syrup
250ml bottle of Caramel syrup
Hot chocolote topping set (just looks like marshmallows & chocolate sprinkles?)
2 pack of Caramel biscuits


My BF was really anoyed at me for asking him to go on his day off

Silly me didn't notice that it was for card holders only, it was so shameful when i asked in a queue and was told I couldn't have it

Worse part was that the woman paying next to me was using her Starbucks card. I mentioned to her to say the password and get the free gift. She looked at me like I was a complete moron, said she didn't know what I was talking about and left! :eek:

Serves me right for trying to be nice to someone, will have to be another moody monosyllabic London commuter from now on then I'm over sensitive and shy at the best of times, and now (pathetically) feel slightly teary about the whole thing at work (am wuss, either that or PMT!).

If that's true then from HOTUKDEALS why do some stores give out all of that and some just a bag :eek: surely that's unfair?

Store: GUILDFORD

The store I got my bag from was Leeds Albion Street.
If others got different thats not fair. She just had a big bag of bags.

hubby went and got mine (and queued with some 'starbucks geeks'). Got the cotton tote bag (price says £4.95) which was filled with 3 mini bags of house blend coffee

this is silly if it's not consistent! It sounds like the HDUK people were part of some kind of other promotion!? I can't see starbucks giving that to 20 people at each of the stores listed!!!

Nope someone on their facebook page has posted a pic and got the bag full of stuff from the Manchester store this morning,

Agreed!!

well 140 across the country isn't that bad. Promotes the business and shows that they're nice. However it's a kick in the teeth if everybody gets given something different!!!!! :mad:
