Default Free 'Burnt Flavor' tomorrow.

Bring Your Own Travel Mug To Starbucks Tomorrow For Free Coffee

Apparently all you have to do is bring in something that qualifies as a "reusable travel mug" to score the gratis java.

Thanks for the heads up. Don't you know the Charbucks equation:

Burnt taste = Lots of flavor

Oh, I see. No wonder I don't shop there. I must hate flavor.

I like most of their blends...there are a few that do come off as tasting more burnt than bold to me, but I agree, free is free...and I'll be there!!

I used to think it was good and then I bought a French Press and never looked back. Saves me mucho denaro.

Neither will I.

They were giving out free beef jerky at the store the other day and I walked past that one too.

To each his own, I'll be brewing up some Sweet marias Amber Espresso Blend I roasted 2 days ago and anyone who wants some can stop by with their travel mug for free coffee and even a Krispy Kreme.

That reminds me, I need to go roast coffee, not burn it.

If I did not have to go out of my way to do so, I would absolutely try a cup. A single origin, if it was available. Believe me, like them or not, they are doing some things right.
