Free Starbucks Coffee If You Buy One for Someone Else
The initiative will continue through Friday as Starbucks CEO aims to bring the country together through coffee during political turmoil in Washington.
Can the act of buying coffee change the world? Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz thinks so, and he wants to give free coffee to his customers to promote good will.
From Wednesday through Friday, Starbucks will give a free tall brewed coffee to anyone who buys a beverage for someone else. There are three Starbucks in the area:
- 10 N Main St
- 498 N Main St
- 1745 S Easton Rd
In a message on the chain’s website, Schultz explains the effort is an attempt to help the country come together during the government shutdown and the looming debate over raising the debt ceiling.
