Starbucks Winter Star Dash: Earn 4 to 12 Stars by Feb. 9th = Earn 10 to 20 Bonus Stars (Select Members)
If you have a registered Starbucks card, you’ll definitely want to take note of this offer (and please keep in mind that this offer is not for everyone – only for those of you who actually received this email and/or see this offer in your rewards account). Beginning today, January 27th and running through February 9th, earn 4-12 Stars (will vary by user) and you’ll score 10-20 Bonus Stars.
Keep in mind that you earn 1 Star every time you pay with your registered Starbucks Card or Starbucks mobile app at a participating Starbucks. And, it only takes 12 stars to redeem for a completely FREE beverage! Awesome! 😀
(Thanks, Jess!)
I get so mad at these things. I have to earn 18 to get 10 and 25 to get 20. The last time the did this my amounts were high as well. But I am grateful they do anything for appreciation.
I got 25 and 40, yikes! I think I’ll be skipping this one, lol. Congrats to those who got a better deal. 🙂
That’s the offer I got, too. 25 stars in 13 days?! 40 stars in 13 days?!
Mine was 25 to get 10 and 40 to get 20. Whats up with that? I’m going to buy 20 $5.00 gift cards to get a better deal. Oh yes you can!
I have the same – 25/40 … so did my hubby. Now to break the bad news and tell him we’re not going to try on this one. In order to hit the min of 25, we’d have to buy 2 drinks a day (roughly $10) to get 10 stars that won’t even get us a drink. Uhhh pass
Whyyyyy don’t I ever get any of these emails or rewards!!?! OMG lol Starbucks hates me…although I practically live there.
I don’t get them anymore either. Just my friends and family get them. I think the more you go to Starbucks the less you get the offers which really sucks! It should be the opposite!
I’ll just have to stop going!! Lol maybe they’ll miss me.
I got these offers when I logged into my Rewards account. Earn 8 Stars and get 10 bonus Stars, Earn 12 Stars and get 20 bonus Stars.
got the same thats one and a half drinks! yay
Got the same one too. 🙂
Thanks! I checked my account this morning and the offer wasn’t there, but I just checked and I have to earn 6 to get 10 and earn 10 to get 20!
I received the same offer.
6 for 10, 10 for 20.
The one I got says earn 12 stars to get 10 bonus stars and earn 18 to get 20. Maybe if I start going there less the offers will get better? 😉
my account says earn 4 to get 10 and earn 7 to get 20
I got 4 and 7 as well!!!
Same! I think thats doable 🙂
WOW that is good. I wasn’t so lucky to get that good of one:)
4/7 offer given here as well!
Lucky me 4/7 as well and two down already!
I recieved the 4/7 offer as well… I go every day as there is one at my place of work (and we get a company discount). I think, the more you go the better the offer because I’ve always gotten awesome, doable “dashes”! I’m not allowed to take monetary tips, so my regulars bring me their retail star codes. lol I filled my card already, but when did the site limit the codes entered to 2 a day?
Yay, I got this one! Mine is 6 to earn 10 and 10 to earn 20. I can easily earn 10. LOL
Me too! !
Mine says earn 35 stars when you get 20. Holy cow. That’s a lot of drinks!
Anyone having trouble signing up? I got the email and linked through to the site, logged in, and can’t find the star dash. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I had to enter my email about 4 times online and finally started getting their offers
That’s so weird it’s different for everyone. I got 10 and 15
I have to get 4 stars to get 10 and 7 stars to get 20!! fun!
Me too – I don’t have a Starbucks near me so I only get stars by buying the bagged coffee but then I have rewards for when we travel and find a Starbucks
Mine is fairly outlandish too- 25/10 or 40/20! And of course I don’t get the email not see this post until I’ve already hit up sbux today!
Yay I finally got an offer from Starbucks! 😀
I got 6 gets 10 or 10 gets 20. Totally doable!!
(btw – isn’t the 12 stars = FREE beverage only for Gold cards? I never got that with my green card. Only free reward was for birthday)
Yes the free drink after 12 stars is for Gold cards only.
So the only perk of getting stars for non gold card members is that it helps them reach gold status. Not sure if this would be worth it for most people then.
How do I register for it. I got the email. It says join now and I click that but it just takes me to my account.
Go ahead and sign into your account, then you should see the “Join Now” button. Click that, & it will say “You’re in…” (Or something to that effect 🙂 Hope that helps!
thanks this did help!
Thanks…I didn’t receive an email yet but when I logged in my Starbucks account the offer was there under My Starbucks Rewards:) I got earn 6 get 10 and earn 10 get 20. Awesome!
Does anyone know if you earn stars for purchases made at safeways? I know at target you do but I’ve never noticed at Safeway if I’m earning a star or not. I’m asking because if you do earn stars at Safeway everyone should check their just4u personalized deals. I have Unlimited Starbucks tall caramel drip coffee for $1. And with only needing to earn 7 to get 20 stars that would be a great deal.
Yes, purchases at Safeway do earn stars. And thanks for the reminder about the J4U!
Yes! Thanks for the reminder. I shopped at Von’s last night, got the tall caramel drip at the start of my shopping and another at the end for my husband. Got two stars and it only cost me $2.
I got a 1 dollar off of an evo fresh.. i’ll pass…
So annoying that they don’t give out the same rewards for everyone OR give out the better rewards to those who go there more. Mine was 18/10 & 25/20… there is no way that I will be buying 18 things from Starbucks before the 9th and plus – the deal isn’t very good either… 10 stars doesn’t even get me a free drink.
Another thing that bugs me is that the email and the Star Dash online show 2 different end dates. One Feb 9 and another Feb 11. Which one is it, Sbux?!
Yes, I noticed this too!
Ouch, I have to get 18 stars in order to get a 10 star bonus. How do they come up with these numbers? They must know that I go there everyday, and would get the bonus too easily..
Make sure you go to “update preferences” under your account. If you don’t have a couple boxes checked off, they won’t email you promotions. You have to opt in : )
I got the 25/$5 and 40/$10 deal. Seriously? I don’t go to Starbucks that much in a month, never mind two weeks, and I’m not suddenly going to start going twice a day for a piddling $5 gift card. Thanks a lot, Starbucks.
Mine is 4 to get 10 stars, and 6 to get 20 stars. It’s weird, I go to starbucks 5 times a week, but whenever they have dashes, my amounts are super low
Also, mine goes through the 11th of february.
I got earn 4, get 10 and earn 7, get 20 by Feb. 11. Wonder why it’s different for different people? Some of the amounts others got border on the ridiculous! I go to Starbucks 3-4 times a week FWIW. But I sometimes spend a good bit, depending on if I have the kids with me!
I go to Starbucks the same amount and got the 25/40 one! I actually sent Starbucks an email asking how they come by these numbers and was told “participants are randomly chosen through a computer”.. how helpful!
yeah it must be random cause i got the 25/40 deal (actually almost made 40) and I practically live at the one next to work and a co-worker who goes maybe once a week got the 4-7 deal others above who go seldom got the good deal as well so maybe its time to go to a different coffee shop I like the rewards and “game” like things but everyone should get the same deal
I got the email, but when I log into my account, the star dash is nowhere to be found. Help!
Hey Joyce! Same here. I emailed Starbucks and they responded that they aware of this issue. Ughhhh
Just wanted to give a reminder for everyone to check their Safeway just4u. Even if you have to earn a lot of stars it may be a good deal if you get a personalized deal for coffee drink at $1 or $2.
Yes!!! I’d gotten the mail for 10 bonus stars for 10, 20 for 15. I’ve been trying to buy the cheapest thing at Starbucks — the tall shaken ice tea or just a shot of espresso. Then I remembered someone’s earlier post about the $1 tall drip offer at Von’s (I didn’t get the $2 latte offer). Awesome!!! Now it won’t cost me a ton of money to get all the bonus stars.
You might need to assure the cashier/barista that the offer is unlimited and that they have a button for it ready programmed.
I didn’t get the $1 drip offer for Vons. Is there any way to share?
In the Von’s app, it shows up under Personalized Deals in the Deli category, then click “add to card.” I’m not sure it can be shared.
Everyone I know received this email! I DID NOT! SOOO not happy right now!
anyone know how to check how you’re doing? I cannot view how many I have earned in the dash. it’s nowhere
Thank you for the first star dash of 2014! Fun and love my Starbucks! !!!
Does anyone know the bonus stars won’t be available until 2/18? I have collected 4 stars already should get 10 bonus stars but just notice it won’t be showing until 2 weeks later. 🙁
And my gold status will be expiring this Sunday….
It gives you a chance to fill all the star slots. SO at the end, you either get the 10 or the 20. I imagine it would be more trouble to give out 10 and then 10 again.
Love it! 3!
I never knew it was different for everybody. I thought that if you never go, you’ll get the 4 for 10 and 7 for 20 deal. That’s what I get and I never go to Starbucks. And if you go a lot, your requirement might be higher. 40 drinks is ridiculous. But it seems that some frequent Starbucks goers also got the 4 and 7 deal? Weird.
What I want to know is why do I have to wait until February 18th to figure out how to “claim” this reward? Why not just deposit the bonus stars in the account immediately?
OK, it’s fun that this will presumably help me make gold for another year, but does it really matter that much? So I get a free drink on my birthday, woop dee do!
I earned the 20 bonus but still have not gotten the email to redeem them…. That makes me sad. 🙁
I completed the reward challenge and have yet to receive any email with further instruction. I even went back to the promotion message page and all it says is congratulations you will receive an email Feb. 18th with instructions on redeeming your bonus reward points. *sigh*
