Starbucks vouchers/ card

Good for teens and tweens? Age rages 10-17

I've got a few children of friends to buy for and am a bit stumped. Thought this might be something that would count as a bit of a treat as fancy coffees are expensive!

Would welcome any other suggestions...

Done it a few times for birthdays and always a hit. Usually buy a reusable coffee tumbler to pop the card in & that way they've still got a present to open

My teens would like this.

We also do this for teachers now too and it is always really appreciated (that doesn’t mean other stuff isn’t, just that it’s a bit different)

Interested in this thread?

Maybe at the upper end but I would be a bit Hmm at my 10 year old getting a coffee shop card as a present. Yes I know they sell other drinks/food but there are so many better options for children in the lower end of your age range. So many. Why a coffee shop?

I also find teen boys live a Greggs voucher Grin

Yes, absolutely. That would be one of my 13 and 16yos favourite things - they feel they can treat a mate when they have a voucher.

That's fair enough: I wasn't specifically thinking she would be mainlining triple ristrettos but more assuming she would enjoy the sugary/ fancier end of the spectrum. But fair enough. What would you suggest?

Can they easily get to a Starbucks independently?
Whatever is the nearest coffee shop/takeaway to their school is probably best.
Greggs probably better for boys (I know.....sexist....but it's true).
