The December 3rd deal at Starbucks is my favorite; you buy a special tumbler for $19 and get free coffee for the entire month of January. I got this last year and probably got $70 worth of Joe.
There is a catch you need to know about: each store is allocated a limited number of special Dec 3rd tumblers. Once they are sold, that's it. You have to plan on hitting your Starbucks early in the morning.

Here's a copy of the entire 12 days of specials:

I used to frequent Star have decided to go else where 1) Mac and get my old guy discount 2) go to Panera and get FREE refills ....oh I also save on that $19 mug too
The ROI on Star's product has run its course. At least for me..

I get as much *free* coffee at work as i can drink, no need to stand in line at starbucks ...
