She might mean the 10c cup discount?

nope since we can’t do reusable cups through drive through, at least at my store whenever they ask we just give them the 10 cent discount.
francescugh 2 points 1y ago
you can apply the discount in the dt, just cant make it in the cup

Yeah definitely only cafe from what I’ve heard

Yes, as of last month we are now taking personal cups again.

Edit to add: customers were still able to take advantage of the cup discount during the times of not accepting personal cups for drinks.

I hate the reusable cups. I used to have a regular come in all the time and expect me to wash his out. It was always covered in dirt and dog hair. My coworkers always did it for him. Till I lost my shit on him and told him we’re not doing it anymore.

You're supposed to rinse every personal cup
YellowSphinx 6 points 1y ago
Rinsing is different than having to scrub the damn thing clean. It was disgusting
Cucumber_Altruistic 1 points 1y ago
That is fair lol

I’m pretty sure that since reusable cups are paused, if they show they have a reusable cup we are supposed to honour the 10c discount. cannot confirm though but that’s what i was told
OneRoseDark 12 points 1y ago
Reusable cups are no longer paused. They are accepted in the cafe as long as they are clean and are to be placed in a mug or on a sanitizer tray so we don't handle the cup itself.

Since this update, we no longer honor the discount for just being shown the cup. They actually have to use it.

Boy wouldn't it be nice if there were some CONSISTENCY ACROSS MARKETS

They auto shipped the clear cups to make their beverages in and then pour into their cups! Don’t know what to do for cold foam but it’ll work itself out. Weekly update as of July 25th says the cafe of stand-alone stores can accept cold cups. Not through the drive thru and not in licensed stores.

We resumed the cup discount, but it’s not applicable in the DT, so jokes on her.
cyan_reynolds 3 points 1y ago
Well it's not like the customers get a weekly update so she probably just didn't know.
1300727 1 points 1y ago
Ah, yes, that’s true, but it wasn’t just in the weekly update, we got the update and then the company announced to the public it was for in store only, when Sbux was trying to win people over for being “green”, while still keeping us safe.
