Default Starbucks == Incompetent Fvcks

So this morning I went to starbucks.com to order an eGift card for a friend's birthday. Selected a card, entered my credit card info, hit submit, and then saw this:



So I clicked on Try Again. Same error message popped up.

So then I went online and checked my AmEx card, and found that Starbucks had charged it twice. Then later on 2 gift card receipts showed up in my email box.

...and they thanked you for your business.

At least AmEx will take one off your charge, but which one?

You could be giving friend a $0 or invalid gift card

K cup=50 cents at home.
WAWA = 1.89 for twenty ounces.

Starbucks is a special occasion for me a few times a year. I do like their soy, vanilla chai as a treat, but don't care much for the 8 dollar price tag.

Never been into a starbucks and never drank any of their overpriced wacky things.

Give me a hot cup of strong black coffee, or a couple and I'm good to go.

If you need coffee, just stop by any Auto Oil Change or Tire Shop. Free coffee right inside the door. You don't need to pay $7 to have it handed to you in a drive thru.
