November 4th, 3:56 PM

i have no idea why we thought launch was also red cup day but so far no angry customers LMAO

7:45am. Lol

We got 20 total so u guess

it’s 11 and we still have them 🥲

Had 600 cups
Opened at 4:30am
Ran out by 8

Ran out @ 12pm every order since is followed by oh I’m so sorry we just ran out. The looks on those faces brings me so much holiday cheer

8:35am

It's 12:17 PM and we still have a good amount of them. They sent us an ungodly amount though.

6:40am 😃😃😃

It's 10am and we've still got plenty. Surprisingly I would say only about 40% of our customers even know about the cups. A bunch of people in the drive thru were super confused this morning when I handed them their cup.

10:08 am

8:25 am

We ran out on this lady and her husbands order. They ordered four holiday drinks. She was supposed to get four cups and instead got three. I told her we ran out and she drove off. Later she called my manager and said I was a lying bitch and now her daughter doesn’t have a cup now because of me and that I ruined her day😂

7:58am

7:30 am. They didn’t send us a whole lot, though.

800am

9am apparently. I worked a mid and all day was:
"Do y'all have the holiday cups... WHAT?! but my app said you would have them!!"
The phone was ringing all day with the same shit

Our store got 500. We still have plenty

We still have them. It is noon.

8:00 am, almost on the dot. We cheered over headset when I handed out the last one.

11 am

Just after 9. We had a ton people just kept ordering large amounts of drinks at once🙃

1136am I just put together 80 more

1:47-ish, found one more that had dropped on the flopr and sanitized it then gave it to a random person in DT who seemed nice enough.

2:10 pm and we have 20 left

6:15pm in surprised we lasted that long but we also got 600+ cups.

I think my store might have been one of few that ended tonight with a half full box of them!

i just left at 7pm and we still had a bunch…we started giving them out to people who didn’t even order holiday drinks

We got 700 red cups at our store so at noon my manager started giving them out to everyone just to be done with it

It’s 3:20pm EST and still have several hundred…

3 PM over here and we still have them but I think we’re almost out

9am 0.0

10 am

It's 2pm and somehow we've still got em

We ran out about 11:30am

7:58 am 😬

11:30am

9:15 am

8:30 am

9:30 am

9am

My shift ended at 12:30 pm and we still had some left ~15 . We received 800 of them

10 am we opened at 8

6:30am. We opened at 5am.

they sent us 3 huge boxes but we ran out at 11:00, like 30 minutes before i went home. that 30 minutes was pretty chill though

still have 200 today

We opened at 7:30 and it was gone by 8:30

Got 60 cups. Opened at 7am out at 12pm. So not bad this year. Usually we run out by 10am.

Late 11:00

I opened yesterday, and they were almost gone by 10a when I left. Happily, I was on CS and didn't have to deal with actual customers - just SO MANY whips and mochas.

We ran out twice we thought we were done before 7:30 and then our shift found 200 more cups hidden away at 8:20 🥲and those lasted us another hour, hour and a half I want to say

Got fired before we did. Stupid policy things. Was after noon, though.

My store ran out at about 6:30. We had so many we were just giving them away to anyone regardless of what drink they bought

we ran out around 3

We closed at 9:30pm and still had a whole bunch!

We closed with another two garbage bags to go

6am. We were shipped 100 of them

10am

ours lasted until 6pm. we were shocked.

Noon; but we had like 8 sleeves

9:45 am!

edit: my store had 642 cups exactly

Opened at 6am, out of red cups at 8:30am

3 pm and everyone who came later kept asking what time we ran out like they were trying to turn back time to get that red cup

work in LA, still have 2 boxes, please don’t tell the customers!

We actually lasted the whole day. We’re open 5am-9pm and we had 2 or 3 still left.
Edit: forgot to mention we’re an extremely high volume store so I was surprised when I went in at 4pm

Open at 4am - gone by 5:40 and line was .1 miles long

Around 3pm

About 5:30pm, surprisingly

4 pm

1pm

9:30am and i worked a closing shift. literally euphoric telling customers no all day lol

I closed and we had some left over.

10:30 am, but then my shift leader found two more sleeves so then we ran out at 1:30 pm.

10:30am

8 pm!!! just about an hour ago!!

9 am
We got extra for some reason.

7:30 AM

i left around 5pm and we had a whole box still

8 am ish

We didn’t lol

12 pm, and we had 40 mins wait time for mobiles… wanted to dieeeeee

It's after closing and we have about 35 of them left so-

10 am

1030 am pacific.

6:30 pm

7pm. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ license store life

11AM

12:30pm, Cafe store

4pm
We were super busy (thanks to stores turning off their mobile orders) but not many people wanted or got them

10.45am

We got 1,000. My store only does 46k a week. Why did they send us so many??? We still have em.

11 am we held out a shockingly long time.

4pm

9

7 am

i was told we ran out by 2p. so glad i don’t work thursdays :,)

our location was sent 75 cups and we were out by 8am.

10am

We still had over 100 when I left at 4pm today

I came in at 2pm and my partner told me we already run out of them. Fyi: we got 4 boxes. 😂😂😂

7am

My location didn’t participate this year since we are in a shopping mall. We were given the option and the manager said no!

i left at 11:30 and we still had some but not many

10 a.m.'ish. We had 120 cups.

10:05am

8:15, then we got more from a neighboring store that over 700 at around 10, ran out again at 12:32 🏃🏻

opened at 5am, out by 7:45am

Opened at 5am, sold out by 6:15

5:30 pm somehow

4pm we got 400

we had 480 cups, and had like over 50 left over during the switch this afternoon

like 7am LOL

815am and we open at 7am 🥲

5:43 pm

Around 1500.

My friend and his SM did a clever thing to distribute the red cups besides order the holiday drinks customers had to show their proof of vaccination as well (since LA county requires for businesses to ask customers show valid proof of vaccination) if a customers refuse no red cups for them.

We had three other stores that weren’t selling there’s bring theirs to us so we had a total of 600 and we still have them it’s 4:30 pm here

2:30 pm today :)

Believe it or not but we lasted until 1

7 pm, but they sent us so many because we’re one of the only stores in the district open and the highest traffic store even before the others closed

About 2:30 ish and about a couple of hours later had a girl nearly in tears when I told her I ran out

I left work at 230, I believe they still have some(we're a Tarbucks). We actually got lucky and they sent way more this year than last year. Of course we've had the ones who either come in multiple times or have an order of 7 fucking drinks. Dicks. 🤦🏾‍♀️

6:15pm I’ve started to get the loud rude customers

Tbh not sure on time but our DM said he saw the highest 1/2 hour sales in his entire starbucks career at my store and he’s been with the company 25 years…

We ran out about 11 this morning then got a UPS drop off of 80 more around 2, so we then ran out again at 5ish

10 am 11/18/21

9 am

We ran out at 10:25 am and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, we sold 200 cups

11aish. ran out of milk around the same time😍

7:15 am and it wasn’t even that busy.

9:00 am, before i even clocked in lol

I got off at 2 pm and we still had 4 large boxes full in the back

10:45 AM

[deleted]

I think 11am.

It was hectic, but I thought we would run out sooner than we did

surprisingly 5:45pm

3:30pm

930 am

When I left at 12:30 we still had an entire box so probably upwards of 100 cups but my store also gets an afternoon peak so I’m sure they’re gone by now.

9am, we got about 300

3:03p and still have some left. I am ✨traumatized✨. It’s not my first rodeo but for some reason this was the worst red cup day I’ve worked in a long time. Absolute madness.

We still have boxes in the back, and we are the busiest store in our area. The last 2 years we still had some for like 3 days.

6:30am

Ran out by 8:45 am

8:45 am. only sent us 200 cups, & we’re a considerably busy location for our area. smh.

6:30AM 😂

630am

7.30am lmao

Opened at 7:30a, out by 8:15a 🙏

Yeah around 10:30-11 ish

It's 5:27 pm and we still have a whole box

Around 10:45 AM

11:10 AM

7:30 !!

opened at 5:30am, ran out by 10am

This place still has them….

around 3:00pm :p

i worked at two different stores today
store #1- 8am
store #2- 2pm

We ran out at 10 am but our second bar broke down so we had to shut mobiles and deliveries off and it was hell.

8:15 ish

made 6k before noon and still have some

7:30 am

We ran through half of them (600 cups) by about 11am. That was the last I heard. We open at 3am, so they held out a good long time anyway.

10:30 am

9am. people were PISSED lol

1:30 pm for us! surprisingly everyone has been super nice about

11? I’m honestly not sure, today was such a disaster, but roughly then.

Around 11:30 we had quite a few.

I don’t know how to uploads pics or if I can lol but our whole MOP area was littered with drinks (cafe and mobiles) that were never picked up. And I mean the black stand and the whole counter surrounding/ next to MOP :/ All the way from 7am -10 am and we threw the really early ones.

Even launch day on the 4th wasn’t as bad. I’m 299 and I’ve never seen our lobby so full. Just left my shift it’s 1pm and we still got 2 boxes and more not set up yet. Praying for later shifts

We still had a grippo when I left at noon somehow… *some*how 😑

Bout 8am

nov 4th 2:13p

Almost 4pm and we still have some

8am lol

3pm and we still have 200 in the back.

12pm 16 minutes ago and I’m over it lol

9am

11ish...we were busyyyyyy

[deleted]

i wasn’t working today, so idk about the location i work at. however, at 11:30am the starbucks i mobile ordered to (it’s closer to my apartment than the one i work at) they still had red cups 🤷‍♀️

Still have a decent amount at 2pm.
