Free 5$ Starbucks when you reactivate your card with a 5$ replenishment.

Hi XXX,

We noticed you haven't used your registered Starbucks Card in a while. Maybe you've lost your Card – did you check the couch cushions?

Using your registered Starbucks Card is how you earn Stars toward rewards – like free drinks and food – at participating Starbucks stores. So it makes sense to use it!

Here's added incentive. If you load $5 or more on your registered Starbucks Card by Wednesday November 7, we'll add an extra $5.*

******************************

Check your cards/accounts :lol:

Didn't know that! Thank you :)

Do you have to have received the email in order to get this deal?

Yes you should receive the email to get the bonus. Mine stated that if i use the card by Nov 7th, i will have $5 added to my card. I don't have to reload it with $5, as i already have some balance on it.

*To be eligible for the $5 bonus load, you must (i) use your registered Starbucks Card at a participating Starbucks store by 11:59 p.m. PST on November 7, 2012, (ii) be the original recipient of this email. Bonus load will be applied to the registered Starbucks Card by December 1, 2012. Only one $5 bonus load per customer. Limited time offer.

What if i have a few cards registered, will i still get $5 added to it,once i reload them?

I got a similar e-mail but with no extra $5 offer. Be cautious, it's not for everyone!

I gave my husband my card and he used up the entire balance. THEN THE STORE STAFF THREW IT AWAY WITHOUT ASKING IF IT WAS REGISTERED.

needless to say, I'm annoyed

I got it! Went to Starbucks last night. Got my free "birthday" drink and bought hubby a drink. So now to wait for my $5 to be added. I thought it was cool of them to send a reminder even before I read the free $5 part. Double bonus in my books cuz I forgot I had the card in the first place.

Do you get $5 right after you used the card?

I used my card and loaded some extra $ on it. Just waiting to see if I actually get the extra $5.

my email stated that i had to load $5 or more to receive the bonus as well....mine had a remaining balance as well :S

Big thanks for clarification. I would have fallen in the trap otherwise. I did not get email for my registered card, glad I read your post.
