10+ Clever Hacks to Save Money at Starbucks

I am super addicted to Starbucks pumpkin bread and the Refresher cold drinks. But it can get really expensive, quick!

Here are some of my best tips for saving @ Starbucks!

  1. Sign up for a Starbucks card. Not only do you earn free drinks on your birthday, you’ll get two stars per dollar you spend, and when you reach certain thresholds, you’re eligible for freebies (one free coffee for every $25 spent, for example).

  2. Plus get free refills on hot or iced brew coffee and tea during the same store visit with a Starbucks reward card!

3. Be on the lookout for Starbucks instant win games. Here is one of the last games they offered. It’s a great way to earn points and free food.

4. Instead of pouring out coffee to make room for cream, order a small size but in a bigger cup.

5. Sign up for Starbucks Odyseey. If you are a Starbucks super fan, you will see the rewards pile up really fast:

Complete activities like games and challenges within each Journey to earn Points. We’ll add new Journeys throughout the year for more opportunities to earn Points. Once you complete a Journey, you’ll be awarded with a collectible Journey Stamp. and bonus Points towards your Point total. Watch for opportunities to purchase limited edition Stamps featuring unique, one-of-a-kind artwork, which will add even more bonus Points to your Point total — helping you to level up faster to unlock new Benefits.

6. Bring in a coffee sleeve to be reused and get a $0.10 discount. You also get a $0.10 discount for bringing in a mug.

7. Shop online. They regularly offer sales and deals.

8. Target stores that have Starbucks regularly clearance Starbucks mugs, coffee and more, especially after the holidays.

9. Don’t forget to get your puppy a puppachino! It’s a small cup of whip cream for a few dollars that your pup will love.

10. Check out the secret Starbucks menu.

11. Make your own Starbucks favorites @ home!
