Christmas at Starbucks Has Begun!

Can you feel the Christmas air? 'Coz I do! And it's that time once again when many people are going crazy to chug down caffeine just to collect stamps and have their much coveted Starbucks Planner. Mr. J and I already started with ours the other day. Little did we know that they're giving one free stamp to the first few customers and we're in! So 11 stamps to go!

My Hot Toffee Nut Latte (around PhP 150)
Chocolate Toffee Nut Loaf (PhP 45)

Starbucks Planner 2011

Stained Dark Wood Panels, Maroon Velvet Fabric and Cool Clean Stainless Steel

I promised myself not be ecstatic with this year's planner as I am last year when I got my first Sbux planner hahaha. But if ever we can finish the stamp card, it will be for Mr. J and we'll get the Silver one.

You need 17 stamps, 9 for Holiday Featured Beverages and 8 for either their Core Beverage or VIA Ready Brew! Promo is from November 3, 2010 to January 5, 2011. So if you haven't got the chance to enjoy these Christmas drinks, visit any Starbucks branch and get your stamp card too. My favorite is Hot Toffee Nut Latte which is the perfect blend for me of Hazelnut and Vanilla with sprinkle of Toffee bits over whipped cream! Good for these breezy nights that's feels Oh-so-Christmas! :)

Starbucks Facebook Fan Page Celebration

We have now reached more than 400,000 likes on our page! As a way for us to say thank you, we're treating you all to something yummy! Treat a friend to a Crème Brulee Macchiato (hot or iced) and we'll treat you to a second Crème Brulee Macchiato. All you need to do is say this line to our barista "I am a Starbucks Philippines Facebook Fan". This treat will run from Oct. 26 - 28, 2010. (Note: Crème Brulee Frappuccino™ Blended Coffee is not included in this offer)

I've tried this twice both Frappe and Iced and I find it very sweet, very caramelly. I still like the regular Caramel Macchiato. But Starbucks rarely do this kind of promo (at least that's what I remember) so grab the chance and bring your best bud from October 26 to 28!

Another update from the Green Siren...

Try our new breakfast sandwiches to go with your coffee. Or if you're really really hungry, why not try all 3! Hungarian Sausage, Egg and Cheese on Whole Wheat Ciabatta, Spanish Chorizo, Egg and Cheese on French Croissant, Tomato Mozzarella and Basil on Whole Wheat Foccacia.

Among the three, I've only seen and tried TMB from the branch I frequently go to and it costs PhP 105. This used to be on a Bagel. It's simple but filling. Try and pair it with hot coffee or maybe when you avail their Creme Brulee promo!

Yes, we are in for some yummy treats next week. Do let me know when you grab one!

Today is BDJ 2011 Fair and I might go. So see you guys there! It's my Kuya H's birthday too and I wish him the very best on his special day! God bless. :)

Have a happy Sunday everyone!

April 22 is Earth Day

Yeah, today is Earth Day and I am participating! Lots of companies now are well aware of this cause and supporting it too!

By using your own tumbler on April 22 and 23, Starbucks will take PhP 40 off the price of your beverage. This way you can help reduce the use of disposable cups even for a day. Fortunately, I'll be meeting someone there today so that's a good start.

Here are some pointers:

• We recommend customers participating on this campaign to bring tumblers that have the proper insulation for either warm or cold drinks.
• Bottled water and pre-packed juices are not included in this campaign.
• Cannot be combined with other offers or Marketing promotions, complimentary vouchers and other discounts (ex. Rustan's discounts and partner discounts).

And if you don't have any of their tumblers yet, you can grab this promo to avail any of their Latte, Mocha, Chai Tea Latte, Cappuccino or Caramel Macchiato tumbler at a price of only PhP 195. Well, another Earth Day treat from the Green Siren! This runs from April 15 to 30 so better hurry up! One reminder though that you can't use it with the discount coupon for April that comes with your Starbucks planner. Just as what is stated on the back of the coupon.

Cellnique, a beauty product company also supports this cause with its "No Paper, No Bag" campaign. You can even get free samples just by using the picture below as your profile pic on your Facebook account. Check their Fan page for more info.

Package from Earth and Latest Summer Offerings from The Green Siren

No, it's not from Mother Earth! Though I must say Earth Day is just few days to go. :) This package came from Ms. Earth Rullan as a prize for her side contest on her blog's anniversary! Wonder what's inside?

Premium Movie Item + 2 Movie Tickets

See it's really good. I got a cool Wolverine notebook and the best thing, I can watch a movie again for FREE! Tickets are valid until April 30 and can only be use on G4. It's far from where I live but who cares it's still free baby!

Thank you very much Earth.. cheers to another year to your blog! :)

------------------------------------------
So, I got it right. Presenting the latest summer offering from Starbucks, Espresso Java Chip Frappe, which will truly soothe our body from the scorching heat. I'll probably try this on Thursday because I'll be meeting an old friend that day.

Starbucks Summer Drinks

On April 20, Starbucks will reveal their cool offerings for summer. I still don't have an idea what it is really but I guess it has something to do with espresso and java chip ;) Just a wild guess.

So for those Starbucks fanatics out there, head on to your fave branch and let's discover another better way to beat this heat! Just minutes away til 12. :)
