To be seething about Starbucks prices

I have a starbucks card which means I get extra shots and syrup and cream for free. So if I was was to order a vanilla latte with whip it will only cost me £2.15 instead of £2.90 (35p syrup and 40p cream). Now bring on the festive gingerbread latte, which is latte with syrup and whip. So surely this should cost £2.90. But oh no they charge £2.95 and there is no reduction when you pay with your starbucks card and also there is no reduction when you order it without whip! I am very annoyed and would refuse to buy them, if only they didn't taste so good!!

snitchrose just order a latte with gingerbread syrup, you'll get that free, don't order the special, just the same items - never had a problem ordering the special syrup in regular drinks at other times.

I just went for coffee with my husband. We had 2 - small - coffees each. When I say small, I mean tiny, small teacup size.

£12

We are paying for more than just the coffee in Lottabucks, Costalot and similar coffee shops. But we keep going back, it must be addictive Wink
