The Offer
- Starbucks is offering their refill tumbler for $40 for 2020. It includes free dripped coffee every day in January, if you used it every day it would cost you $1.29 per day.
The Fine Print
- In store only
- Goes on sale on November 26th, 2019
Our Verdict
It seems at some stores these sell out quickly, whereas other stores will still have inventory in December/early January and the tumblers get deep discount (as low as $4, but normally $20 when discounted). I don’t like Starbucks so this is an easy pass for me, but might be worth it for some readers. Starbucks for life promotion is now valid

Let’s break this down. A tall brewed coffee with a reusable cup costs you $2.19 where I live. Times 30 is $67. And you get a nice cup, metal not plastic. No brainer if you go every day
I agree
$40 for a piece of plastic.
It’s actually a metal tumbler
I just go to the Capital One cafe in my city. 50% off Peet’s coffee w/ Cap 1 card every single day for any beverage. No gimmicks.
I recently found out about this and will be doing it too 👍🏻
I’m going to save myself $40 by not buying a refillable tumbler which I will NEVER USE after January.
God knows I already have enough refillable tumblers from vendors, employers, career fairs, fundraisers, and marketing agencies for all of my great-grandchildren and their great-grandchildren.
For SB regulars it is a pretty good deal and it doesn’t matter how many tumblers they already have: ~50% off of my daily dose of coffee for the full month of January…I will take it even though I may not use that tumbler after January.
Can you use it only once per day? My husband usually gets 2 coffees during a workday. If he can use it for both his coffees, it is so worth it.
Although there is a printed limit it is just a code the barista punches in. At $20 or $30 (their original price) it was fine but not at $40. Note that these also qualify for Mistos, since regular Starbucks is way too strong IMHO.
I got excited for “free drinks” but free drip coffee is less exciting. I love myPressi espresso. I’ve been spoiled.
Yeah sometime SBUX drip coffee is as bad as gas stations (think out in the boondocks gas station not QuikTrip’s). SBUX expresso is acceptable -but I’m not a coffee snob. But get Americano’s and rarely a dessert coffee.
Actually, the one at LLoyd Center isnt bad, surprisingly. Also, the one on Walker Rd Fred Meyer too.
Ah Lloyd Center SBUX, I do miss that midworkday morning ritual.
