UPDATE: This offer is now expired. 🙁

Wowza!!! What a *HOT* freebie for all you Starbucks fans! 😀 Currently (not sure how long this will last?), you can score a completely FREE Grande Latte (up to $4.50 value!) from Starbucks! Here’s how to get in on this awesome offer:

* Head on over to Treater.com through this link.
* Click on the Blue “Pick a Friend” link
* Choose a Facebook friend to send a FREE Starbucks Latte to (I chose my hubby since I knew that he’d end up giving me the freebie since he’s not a coffee fan! 😉 ).

* Then just follow the directions to send your Treat. You’ll be able to add a message and a photo if you like. The Treat will post to their Facebook Wall. In addition, you can also send a text message link or email link to their smartphone (which they will receive faster). When you are done, click the green “Send It!” Button! That’s it!

To redeem the Treat, click the Treater Facebook post, text message link or email link on your smartphone. You’ll see the Treat and the message from friend, and then they’ll guide you through redemption. Note that redemption must occur on a smartphone. Show the cashier the Treat Card on your phone, they’ll type in the Treat Card number as a credit card, and voila! You’ve been treated.

I couldn’t believe how simple it was to redeem! And now I am enjoying my FREE latte! 😀

* This Offer is subject to the following terms and conditions. (1) Offer is good only for a Free Grande Latte at Starbucks. (2) Offer cannot be combined with any other offers. (3) Offer only valid until November 21, 2012. (4) Limit one offer per person. (5) Treater has the sole right to modify or terminate this offer at any time with or without notice. (6) Offer is valid only in the US. Additional information regarding the use of Treat Cards can be found under the terms of use at www.Treater.com.

(Thanks so much for the heads up on this *HOT* offer, Deanna!)

    • DMC

      I have a dumbphone too.

      • Julie

        I also have a dumbphone. 🙂

        • marnie

          dumbphones are the way too go! I am too cheap to pay $30 more a month for a smart phone!

          • Carl Black

            Then just pay $30/month (total) for an iPhone (or Android) with unlimited data and messaging through Virgin Mobile.

  3. Susie

    Site seems down now.

  4. Vicki

    Hmmm….it’s telling me its not a available, that the offer must has already been used. Weird since I’ve never even heard of treater.com. Bummer.

  32. Karin

    After I clicked ‘pick a friend’ link, then blank screen came up. 🙁 Hopefully I will be able to load it soon..

    • Karin

      Worked with FF. But I didn’t know that you could send this offer to only one friend. I was going to send this to another friend and it didn’t work. But thanks for this offer! 🙂

  33. johnathans_jiggle

    Firefox loads. Chrome didn’t. It took about an hour to send 2 treats.. from errors and it not loading, but it DOES go through! Thanks!!

    • johnathans_jiggle

      Oh and texting it would not work but when I emailed it went through faster!

  34. Melinda D

    Thank you! My husband and I have a weekly date on Sunday at Starbucks so this showed up just in time!

  35. Jenn

    Yay! Got mine! Thanks!

  36. Sue Conway

    First it said there was an error, when I tried again, it said I had already gotten the offer.

  37. Cheryl

    The site says I have to pay for the treat so not free. Oh we’ll.

    • Kristen

      Make sure that you go through the link Collin posted above! I did the same thing the first time. And then it said I already got the offer but I tried again and it worked!! Thanks!

  38. Raquel

    Oh My Golly, 🙂 it takes forever with me… lol! 🙂 Thanks Collin.

  39. harlow

    Collin, the starbucks looked delicious that u had in ur hand. i just think that u are so smart and adorable to post things like this. i love you. even though i wasnt able to participate in this offer i like reading about what deals u come up with every day. this is my favorite all time website and i check it often (like 50 x a day!). Thank you for brightening my day with this post. 🙂 <3

    • Raquel

      Harlow, same here… you’re absolutely right, 50 x a day!!! over and over… lol! 🙂

  40. Kristen

    The text message took a few minutes to arrive.. at first I wondered if I had treated someone else by typing in the wrong number!

  41. Gen

    Cool!!! Thanks!! Your so cute even when your out enjoying the weather u still bring your “handy deny LAPTOP” lol, i saw that in the picture =D

  42. esmer

    got one for me from my husband, and then I sent him one!! great!

  43. Maria

    It didn’t work at Starbucks. Card was declined.

    • Brittney

      I had the same experience…really frustrating.

      • katherine

        because the value of the card is $4.50 and a good chance your latte was more than that which may include tax, extra shots, etc. Ask the cashier to run it at $4.50 then you will have to pay the difference.

  44. Rachel

    Just did it. It worked! Awesome! Thanks!

  45. Stephanie Miller

    lucky!

  46. ashley.shaffer22@yahoo.com

    This is awesome!! Thank you so much Collin!! 😀

  47. Brittney

    Starbucks declined the card…wouldn’t accept it. My husband says he is done doing these freebies with me because they never work and it embarrasses him.

    • harlow

      Thank you for this comment. sometimes the freebies work and sometimes they dont. often times it is a long line we have to wait in to use our coupon or maybe i should say we hold up the line with the coupon we want to use. i find your comment very cute because i find that men often aren’t interested in saving a few bucks because of the hassle that it is sometimes. i laughed. thank you. 🙂

    • katherine

      it was declined because your latte cost more than $4.50. The card is valued at $4.50. With tax or any extras you may have added, it will be more than $4.50. Ask the cashier to run the card at $4.50 then you will have to pay the difference. My drink was $4.55, I paid only .05 after the card was run for $4.50.

  48. katherine

    ten minutes and still waiting for the text. for those who received the text, about how long did it take?

    • katherine

      of course after I post the message… I get the text! Took fiften minutes tops. Thanks again Collin!

  49. Arielle

    Went to Starbucks and mine was declined!

    • katherine

      the card is valued at $4.50… ask the cashier to run it for $4.50 then you pay the difference. My drink was $4.55 (grande pumpkin spice. no extra shots and we have no tax in MT). I paid only $.05 after the cashier ran the card for $4.50.

      • Arielle

        I was the first one at my local starbucks to use this, so the manager keyed the credit card number and it went through just fine! I got a skinny vanilla latte and the total came to
        $4.37.

        • katherine

          glad it worked!! 🙂

  50. Sara

    I couldn’t do it on the computer but searched for the app on my phone was able to do it on both mine and my husband phones in less than 5min. On my way to Starbucks now.
