  Apparently coupons.com now hosts coupons that their manufacturers don’t actually accept.
  When I tried to use it today I was told “Unfortunately, unless it’s the one Starbucks handed out to you, we’re not able to accept it.” A girl in front of me had the same coupon and was told the same thing.

    Those turkeys should have honored the coupon in order promote goodwill. Try calling around to another Starbucks to see if they will accept the coupon.

    At a 2nd store I got “We’re not accepting those unless they have barcodes. People have been making copies of them and they’re not working”, which makes no sense b/c if people had been making copies they’d be copying the whole coupon including the barcode. Obviously a barcode was never made for these in the first place, which is also why there are directions for the baristas on how to use it.

      Hopefully, some readers will let us know if they have been able to use the coupon b/c I was planning on getting a free coffee tomorrow.
