The Starbucks Gold Card
If you follow this website, you know that I have a love hate relationship with Starbucks.
However, say what you want about their coffee, but when you need to get some stuff done and don’t want to be at home, going to starbucks is like having a thriving office, filled with hot college girl employees.
Anyway, as I ordered my large coffee and egg salad sandwich, I noticed a flyer for a new promotion they are having.
It’s called, “the starbucks gold card.”
The packaging was great and it looked cool, so I started to read.
That’s when I was in shock.
This thing costs 25 dollars and the main benefit was that you get 10 percent off all purchases.
Ok.
I was an English major, but still have some kind of math sense.
My coffee costs me 1.95.
That means that I would save 20 cents per cup.
I would have to buy 100 or so cups of coffee in order to make my money back.
I say 100 or so, because I cant multiply 25 by 20 in my head.
Anyway, is Starbucks serious about this?
The starbucks gold card is not some exclusive club.
Sure the card is black and gold and looks cool, but all it says is that you are a douche bag who drinks way too much coffee.
Spend your money on other things.
Or send it to me.
