Yes that’s right! On today’s visit to Starbucks I will be earning my 30th star which entitles me to a Gold Card.
What do you get? Right now I have a green card and at that level I get free wi-fi for up to two hours, free syrups, free brewed coffee refills, and free trial offers. After you earn 30 stars, you advance to the Gold Level. At this level, you get all the benefits a Green Card gets as well as a free drink after every 15 purchases, a personalized membership card, and personalized free trial offers.
Really the only benefit I enjoy is having access to the free WiFi.
Quick Update – I received my Gold Card on April 5th. Blogged about it here…
