Little Trick to a free starbucks coffee. Sort of.

Per Syed's request, here's a quick update. I'll talk about the latest development of my computer this weekend.

So you want to know how to get a free Starbucks coffee of your choice? Here's my story.

I decided to stop by Starbucks Coffee at the corner of my company's building yesterday. I ordered a latte grande, and decided to break down my Grant. It's then I realized that they don't take anything bigger than a Jackson.

I have no intention to use my credit card at that moment for some reason. The manager told me I could come back and pay them later on.

It was raining heavily this morning, but I still decided to stop by Starbucks, to get an early dose of caffeine and of course, to return the money from yesterday.

The manager made my day. I reminded her my fifty-dollar incident, and yet she still had me paid for only one:-)

So you know the trick. But if you do it on purpose and often, it makes you looked cheap. That is:-P

nice Kiat, very nice. Now I know who to blame when Starbucks goes bankrupt. I got a free lunch at a chipotle once because the owner liked my tshirt. The tshirt said something like

I always give 100% at school
10% on Monday
5% on Tuesday
25% on Wednesday etc

Well, I just got lucky:-P
Same thought if Chipotle goes bankrupt
