  • Does anyone know if you have to have a Starbucks card to take advantage of the 2 for 1? Thanks.

    Can anyone help? Does the eggnog latte have coffee in it? I have loads of these when Starbucks brings them out,but this year i'm pregnant and gone off coffee big time x

    I don't think you can really taste the coffee in the egg nog, maybe get one with just one shot?

    And pregnant women can have caffine :think: up to 200mg they say is 'safe', are you one of those people who give me a dirty look for having a coffee :rotfl:

    I think you do need a card, but you can pick one up in store and normally they'll do the card deals for you while you wait for it to activate (up to 24 hours if I remember rightly).

    Well I have written on there FB page and emailed there customer service department. For a huge chain like starbucks it is not alot to give 20 customers a gift bag full at 70 stores. I had read on HUKD last night what other people got, that why I got my bf to go. I would have not asked him to get up super early travel 30 mins on train to get a canvas bag. He was so annoyed about the situation. And then to see someone post their gift bag goodies on FB from Manchester stre again has annoyed me. Why wouldn't the stores all be consistent.
    Hopefully they will send us the missing contents (heres hoping lol)

    My god will you all listen to yourselves! From the way some of you are moaning it’s like you’ve been robbed of your life savings! It’s a FREE gift! If you’re that bothered about a little free gift that you need to rush out at the crack of dawn in the hope for something free then I don’t think you should have a knock at Starbucks because it’s not as you hoped or what other people have had!
  • Hi, no u dont need to hv a starbucks card for the buy 1 get 1 free but they dnt seem to advertise it u have to mention it when u order. Its only on their xmas range and between 2 and 5.

    I work in a starbucks and the eggnog replaces the milk, so its not like the others with a syrup, ask for it with no coffe, tastes better that way ;)

    Lol no not at all,anything in moderation, ;) as I said before,it's not the caffeine I'm worried about,but the actual taste and smell of coffee since becoming preg x

    I think so, next time you're in just ask to take a look at the carton, I'm pretty sure theres only a very small amount of egg in it anyway, its mostly whole milk cream and sugar!!
