Starbucks - $10 Gift Cards (3-Pack)

I bought quite a few gift cards online for Christmas gifts. Not aware they were all inactive when I gave them out.... and guess what I live in CA and everyone I gifted the cards are in MA, BUT I am the only one that can call to activate it, so Now since BestBuy could not solve this problem, I have to call everyone I gifted these cards to and ask for a serial number and tell them I have to activate it ...Truly annoyed and embarrassed, and The BestBuy representative gave me no option other than place me on hold for 30 minutes! SERIOUSLY THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN WRITTEN IN BOLD RED LETTERS AND REPEATED IN DELIVERED EMAIL!

Okay. I probably drink too much coffee. But still: Starbucks gift cards -- great items! Excellent gifts (hence the name, but okay, only for coffee drinkers); convenient form of payment; facilitates tracking your coffee consumption (register the card online and you can check your history to see how many you've knocked back at your local SB); use it to ration yourself (when the card is empty, back to making your own at home). And not to shill for SB, but: create an account, register your card, and start earning stars towards FREE coffee. Well, okay: TANSTAAFL -- there ain't no such thing as a free lunch, but kinda free, as in no charge at the time you swap your stars for a cup of that glorious beverage, the consumption of which separates us from the animals...ahem; sorry. Anywhoozle: SB gift cards -- great idea!

Working next door to a Starbucks is dangerous! My iPhone Starbucks app was down to less than $3. I had a choice to make with Best Buy not out of the way on my commute so I frequent it regularly. The easy alternative was to simply 're-charge' my account within the app. However, the other alternative was to pick up a new gift card while in Best Buy and load it into the app. Either alternative was the same cost but had the additional advantage at Best Buy of having it apply towards the $3500 Elite Plus and receive points. Every little bit helps. It wasn't a hard decision to make. With a little planning, just pick one up when in Best Buy for Starbucks or any other restaurant/store you frequent where they offer gift cards.

I had some best buy rewards expiring, and I had seriously nothing I needed at the time. I decided to get this Starbucks gift card since I was going to get Starbucks which was next door to the Best Buy. I really like that Best Buy allows you to use their rewards on gift cards. Most other stores exclude gift cards, etc. I also read some other reviews below that if you purchase gift cards from Best Buy, it counts towards your annual threshold for the rewards program which is pretty neat. Thanks Best Buy for fueling my caffeine needs! :-)

I always wanted to try some starbucks coffee, so I bought some dehydrated vacuum sealed coffee cards. I took them home and put them into boiling water but I could not get them to re-hydrate and turn into coffee. I took them down to Starbuck's to complain and they asked me what I like to drink...I told them hot chocolate, but I was wanting to try this new fad called "coffee". The person behind the counter gave me a funny look, and took all my dehydrated coffee cards. Before I could say anything, she gave me like $30 worth of hot chocolate....I am very pleased with their customer service. Maybe we as a society are just not ready for dehydrated coffee cards.

This card is very easy to use, and if registered online, gives you the benefit of a free refill at the same location. If you are going to visit a Starbucks for the time it takes to drink your coffee, that can be a plus. I like to have one available for those times I'm in town and cash is needed for other purchases that I need to make. Also great for when I meet up with friends or family and I can treat without dipping into funds.

Who can't use a Starbucks gift card?!?!? My nieces and nephews love to go to Starbucks for the Frappuccinos and snack items. This is a great way for me to reward them for birthdays, holidays, etc. When they get their cards, they say they just load the gift cards to their Starbucks app on their smartphones and then cut up the cards. They love that they don't have to carry the card around. I think the Starbuck's app is awesome and more companies need to do the same. But I diverge from my review. Thanks Bestbuy for keeping these Starbucks gift cards in stock.

This Starbucks gift card came in such great use! With the card I purchased Starbucks delicious hot coffee and fabulous frappuccinos. It was great having a Starbucks gift card on hand (especially when I was out of cash or at times I would use the gift card in lieu of having to spend cash) With much anticipation and on several occasions, I stopped by the nearest locations purchased an item from the menu and was on my merry way. Starbucks gift card saved the day.
