Starbucks really doesn’t want to give free coffee at all today

Wow. Ok, so if you’re going to go to Starbucks and get a free coffee after voting, here’s a tip: DON’T.

They really don’t want to give the free coffee out at all.

I managed to get one only after being belittled by the staff at my local Starbucks for going in and taking advantage of a promotion that THEY PUT ON THEMSELVES. If they’re going to be such pricks about giving away a free cup of coffee, then why advertise the event at all?

Here in Seattle, you get a free coffee whether you voted or not! It’s because of a state law that prohibits payments or rewards for registering, voting, or not voting. So Starbucks here changed their rules: they’re giving coffee to everybody so that they don’t break the law. It doesn’t matter to me, though, because I don’t drink coffee.

dag bro what happened? lol . dont tell me you went to the one on 28th and 7th, i just came from there and they reminded me before i paid that the coffee was free. But I love it when businesses redefine the term “customer service” for me. It never ceases to amaze me. gotta love the city!
