It’s been a year since Starbucks launched it’s loyalty program, My Starbucks Rewards (MSR), to their regular customers. It was met with mixed reactions albeit very successful. In the first month alone, the regular MSR cards were gone so fast even with a price tag of RMB 88. For a couple of months, these cards can nowhere be found in stores and not until their December event did they launch the Christmas MSR Card. Not a month after the Christmas MSR card launch, they issued the Dragon MSR card to celebrate Chinese New Year.
As they celebrate their first year anniversary, different promotions abound their most loyal customers and they are as follows:
-
For gold MSR cardholders who registered their account in February, you will be able to receive a free tall beverage e-coupon to celebrate your account anniversary.
-
From Feb 15 to 21, if you registered your current MSR card between Feb 15, 2011 to Feb 14, 2012, go to
http://starbucks.com.cn, click on the “我要喝咖啡” in green button and click on “登陆” in green button to register. You will get a free tall latte beverage coupon on the month you registered your card.
-
From Feb 15 to Mar 31, when you purchase a new MSR card, you will get a free tall latte.
-
From Feb 15 to 29, you can get your own Starbucks China app on your mobile phone.

Winter weather is finally out and Spring was cut short. Summer is now in the wind but it’s still relatively cool. If you’re planning to visit Beijing, do it now as weather in July and August is unbearable. In any case, the summer theme of Starbucks is “Black is Chill This Summer”
Promotions
From April 27 to June 27, every purchase of the Black is Chill merchandise or food product will entitle you a sticker. Collect 12 stickers to form a picture of the new summer drink and get a free Starbucks summer cloth bag. The stickers they will give you may be the same as your previous one so better befriend your local barista and they might give you the missing sticker you still need.
Collect 6 stickers and they will give you one free Black Sesame Green Tea Frappuccino Blended Cream drink.

Dropped by again at the Starbucks near my home and they have the autumn and the Halloween collection already. I tried taking pictures with my camera-phone but it didn’t look good. So, I just downloaded the ones from their website and will post it here.
Let’s start with this year’s anniversary blend tumbler and mug (picture on the right). The tumbler design is brown in color with a mermaid. I’m not sure if this is available in other countries but my cousin has it already. They’re selling so fast so if you want one, you better grab one already!
Then we have the Autumn flower collection. The mugs on
this collection has both painted and embossed flowers. I’m not a fan of the bluegreen color but the red one is ok. Also, it’s not as striking as the anniversary tumbler but if you’re into collecting, might as well buy one. Hehehehe!
