Starbucks Rewards Cards - Gold Cards, Availibilty and Expiration Dates

If you like coffee from starbucks, it really helps to get up to the gold rewards level.  It will not take that long to get 30 stars.  Then after you get there, the offers start coming.  

Make sure that you have a smartphone, you don't want to miss the deals that get delivered.  Getting that gold starbucks rewards card in the mail is a big deal.  You might have a lot of the regular gift cards with balances, but it is really easy to transfer the balances from one card to another.

Loading your card or using your smartphone to pay is real simple.  You will start to notice special codes in the deal messages.  Just make sure that you remember these codes at checkout time.  You tell them the number and they adjust your price.

The deals can be similar, but different.  Pay attention to the types of deals.   They might offer a percentage off or buy one get one.  Remember that starbucks has different kinds of drinks and food, so pay attention to the deal offer.

One thing that you will notice with the deal is the expiration date and the availability.  Sometimes a deal might be ready to expire, but it is still available.  Jump on it before the status changes, you might be able to get the deal.
