    • Vanessa

      🙂

  4. Jean

    mine is 7 and 9 stars

  5. Shannon

    Mine is 8 to get 10 bonus stars and only lasts through October 25th

    • Noel

      I received 8 and 10 Star Purchases for 10 and 20 Bonus Stars. :[ IMO the 8 is not even worth it for two extra stars … The 10 however is! But, I’m sorry I won’t be completing this Bonus Star Challenge. Too much moola!

      • Sarah

        It’s still extra 10 not 2 because you will still recieve your individual star on the same day you buy your coffee or food. If you buy 8 then you’ll get extra 10.

        • Sarah

          But it’s worth it if you do the 10 so you’ll get an extra 20 stars.

          • Noel

            You’re so right! I obviously had a
            total brain fart. Duh!!! Yep, you always get an additional “blank” amount bonus stars … So, 10 more, not just 2. I have no idea why I blanked on that. Thanx. 🙂

            • Lucy

              sorry ladies, I’m new to all this starbucks star deal…so in collin’s example, you have to buy 5 drinks and you get 10 stars?

    • Wren

      Yep, mine is 8 and 10 too.

  6. Mel

    Mine is 12 and 15…

  7. Sunny

    Yah!! I got get 7 for 20!

  8. Cassandane

    Hmmm mine is earn 6,9 or 12 stars in a row, get matching bonus stars. Not great, but it might be worth it for an espresso or kids hot chocolate…

  9. Claudia

    I got 5 for 10 and 7 for 20, yay!!!!

  10. Inda

    6, 9 or 12 to get 6, 9 or 12 by Oct. 26th.

  11. Victoria

    Am I the only one that joins the challenges (past ones), completes them using my linked card, yet never receives a redemption? This has happened the last 2 times I’ve done them…

    • Carrie

      Same here. I joined the star dash last time and never got my stars. I went five days in a row and never got my bonus stars for that.

      • Angela

        Call Starbucks customer service. I believe their number is on the card. They have corrected it for me in the past.

      • Monica

        The Bonus Stars come in the form of an e-mail 1-2 weeks after the dash is over. They are not automatically added to your account. You need to input a special specific code that is e-mailed to you. Check your junk e-mail folders.
        DH and I both got the 5/7 stars 10/20 bonus ones. Good for me since I really don’t buy drinks at the store but do buy their bagged coffee and VIAs and have some Star Codes saved ahead.

        • Diana

          I’m wondering if that’s gonna work tho… In the very fine print at the bottom it states:

          Offer valid 10/15/14 – 10/28/14. Earn five (5) Stars and receive ten (10) Bonus Stars. Earn seven (7) Stars and receive twenty (20) Bonus Stars. At participating Starbucks® stores. Must pay with your registered Starbucks Card.

          So… It might ONLY work if we make the purchase at the store WITH starbucks card?

  12. MrsMassone

    I get mine. After I put code in they send me in email next day at the latest I get my bonus stars You can call them though. They have great cs

  13. brian cardis

    Total stars are different for people. I had to earn more for same amount.

  14. Jennifer

    mine is collect 12, earn 10 bonus and collect 15, earn 20 bonus… I joined but don’t see myself going 12 times between Oct 15-28 as I have cut back on my starbucks visits LOL … 🙁

  15. Wendy R

    I never get emails from Starbucks and have been gold since 2008! Any idea why?

    • Neha

      I was gonna ask the same question. Havent received this email and never receive any.

      • Jac

        Check your communication preferences in your account! Maybe you aren’t opted in to receive offers?

  16. Kristie

    I did not get this offer 🙁

  17. Tera

    Yeah 5 for 10 and 7 for 20!!! Has anyone ever used their stars for purchases? Just wondering what they are used for.

    • Diana

      You get more stars to ‘upgrade’ your status from green all the way to gold. While your status goes up, it’s gonna give you more rewards quicker. When you reached gold status, you get a free drink/food for each 12 stars you get; free drink for your birthday, etc.
      HTH 🙂

  18. Krystal

    I received a different offer on September 30 – Come in 31 times in October, receive 15 bonus stars. Thankfully (?), I visit daily, but it’s really not fair to give your loyal customers worse offers.

    • Noel

      Ouch!!! 31 Times? That’s awful.

      • Diana

        LMAO… That was my exact thought when I read her comment!!! 😀

    • omes

      this is mine as well. 31 is kind of ridiculous…

    • Veronica

      I received this 31 day offer too. I go everyday anyway so I have already collected all the stars and the offer isn’t even over. Did anyone else receive the “A star a day keeps the Bonus in Play?” Visit 10 days in a row for 10 bonus stars, 12 days earns 12 stars and 15 days in a row earns 15 bonus stars IN ADDITION TO the 31 day challenge.

      • Irene

        I did. but I can’t find my email now.

  19. Kara

    I got the 8 and 10 offer….. weird! I wish it were 5 and 7!

  20. sara

    What do you get with all the stars anyways? Is it only for a free drink? I never liked Starbuck.

  21. Poonu

    I never get those email? So what to do ?where should I check?

  22. Becky

    I’ve completed challenges twice. I’ve never gotten the email to collect my bonus stars. I called Starbucks and they say they are upgrading their system which is causing customers not to see their stars. I’m still missing one from 10/20 plus bonus stars from two challenges 10 stars each so 21 that’s 2 free drinks. Stinks.
