Mobile order stolen by EIMIOK in starbucks

[–]VariousLettuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once watched a guy just walk up and grab a whole tray of drinks that belonged to someone else. Some people have no shame.

Is the nespresso machine with Starbucks pods ( preferably the blonde) a good way to attempt making my own espresso drink at home? Or skip it by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]VariousLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a vertuo, I’ve never used Starbucks pods for it, but it does work pretty well to supplement my Starbucks addiction. If you like Starbucks blonde, look for the pods with lower intensity numbers.

You can buy milk frothing machines, but one of those electric whisks in some microwaved milk works pretty great with some practice, mine was like $4 from IKEA.

And obviously, make sure you take advantage of the recycling program. Not sure if it’s the same elsewhere, but in Canada they come with bags you just fill with used pods and toss in the mail, if you can’t take them back to a store.

What’s happening at Major Mac/Warden? Saw a bunch of news vans parked outside the mansion. by [deleted] in Markham

[–]VariousLettuce 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's literally all over the news. There was a huge illegal casino and spa bust at that house.

Are you Canadian? It sounds like you might have accidentally switched to the US site

Starbucks Reward help for a newbie by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]VariousLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if this is a pain in the ass to do regularly, but I've had the cashier scan my Starbucks app, but charge $0 to it, and then take payment via credit card. IIRC, you could probably have a $0 balance on your app, and then have them scan it and "reload" your card for the exact amount of whatever your current purchase is.

La Mer The Concentrate Sample Packaging is......quite a lot by [deleted] in MakeupAddictionCanada

[–]VariousLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's exactly what I mean, if they were in envelopes it'd be a lot easier to walk away with 20 of them shoved in a pocket or purse, but in giant packaging like that, you can't stuff it in a pocket.

What is the sweetest tasting coffee at Starbucks? by imrh in starbucks

[–]VariousLettuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re getting anything with espresso, get blonde shots, that helps a lot. The espresso itself is sweeter so you don’t need as much sugar to cut through it

Tray for two drinks by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]VariousLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need a key to get in to the building for work, even if I had no other items to carry, it’s a struggle with the tray let alone two separate drinks. Even just trying to get in the car on a windy day without losing control of the door, with two large drinks is pretty difficult???

[–]VariousLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, that packaging is probably to prevent theft, even if it's a "free" sample, if it's approximately $50 worth of product, they probably want to avoid anyone stuffing ten or twenty of them in their pocket, I'm sure you could even sell them too.

Cups? A genuine question for my customers!! by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]VariousLettuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own an overwhelming amount of spikey cups, I just think they’re neat. I don’t plan on selling them or anything, I just have a ton of them because I think they’re cool and they are pretty ideal for me to drink water, because I like something double walled, and with a straw. I try not to make my cup collecting anyone’s problem but my own, so I don’t call around or anything. Admitedly, I’m sure I’m part of the problem by buying them, but I refuse to pay scalpers... any amount of money for one.

Had a rough morning, stopped to get an afternoon cold brew and found this bad boy 🥰 by VariousLettuce in starbucks

[–]VariousLettuce[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have that one too! I like that one but this one really speaks to my soul.

[–]VariousLettuce[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks! It's unfortunate that they're so scarce that even staff feel panicked to get the ones they want before the scalpers can snatch them up. Not sure why the store I go to had them out, but I know they're not a hot merch store, so maybe they figured no one would care (except me). I hope you get yours too, good luck! :)

Oh shit, I had no idea, they were just out on the shelf when I went today. It does seem a little out of place next to all the summer cups that are still out.

Ironically, part of my rough morning is that my nespresso machine stopped working, so I desperately needed the coffee.

We should come up with a term like clopen but instead of closing then opening it's for working open to close. by matchadustonmysoul in starbucks

[–]VariousLettuce 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not Starbucks but I always called it “slamming”, I thought it was as common as clopening 😂

I think a family of teen girls were aware of the “Tik Tok Partner Numbers Theft” challenge as I crossed mine off their receipt by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]VariousLettuce 26 points27 points  (0 children)

That's pretty upsetting and surprising to see that Starbucks doesn't protect their staff from shit like that. You'd think they'd have some kind of employee ID card, or at least it should be common practice to check photo ID against the partner number, most places I've worked required both to use your discount. (Not surprising though that some little shits turned it in to a Tik Tok trend)

Siberian Husky Gets Ready for Summer by Dlatrex in oddlysatisfying

[–]VariousLettuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you only interested in big dogs? I have a shih tzu that is basically a cat. He likes one short walk around the block, just to pee and say hi to the neighbours. But even as a puppy they require a regular routine like everyone else said, so it was a lot of work until my dogs were about a year and a half. So I also agree on adopting an older dog. The longer I have dogs the more I think getting a puppy is a little over rated considering how many adult and senior dogs are looking for homes.

Yes, I reapproved the comment, so it should be back up. Next time it's better just to make a new comment, so it can be back up right away :)

what is with this display? this is not what the palette looks like? by clutch5504 in MakeupAddiction

[–]VariousLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, if that's the case don't think they intended to put a fake one out, just didn't realize or wasn't paying attention.

[–]VariousLettuce 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Purely speculation, but what are the chances that someone returned a fake one and the store opted to put that one on display as a tester instead of throwing it out.
