Am I Dreaming? Starbucks is Giving Away Something For Free?

Posted by admin on Mar 23, 2010 in New Jersey

Weird.

Woke up this morning, yearning for the caffeine fix as usual.

And found this deal that makes we want to scratch my head. . .

Why is Starbucks discounting, setting up freebie promotions? Boy, have (economic) times changed.

Gone are the days when Starbucks can rely upon just straight-up coffee.   How can you tell?  Have you noticed their new line of *INSTANT COFFEE*?  How about the Instant Oatmeal now on their menu?  When I ordered it on my last visit, they literally open a packet of instant oatmeal just like the single-serve Quaker oatmeal packets we have at home — pour in hot water, stir it up and give it to you with premium packaged toppings that completely goes against any eco-friendly message they are trying to send out.

For me, I go to Starbucks for the high caffeine content in their coffee — one Starbucks Grande Cup has more than 4x the caffeine that 4 cans of Red Bull.

Drop by the Starbucks – whether on Mt. Pleasant & S. Livingston, or on Eisenhower Parkway or on Millburn Avenue in Short Hills/Millburn with this printable coupon.

You’ll get a free Starbucks pastry of your choice to go with your coffee.

What Kind Of Cats Go Bowling?

Posted by admin on Mar 20, 2010 in bowling, east hanover

ALLEY CATS!   LOL ;-D

The sun made a good showing this past week, but the forecast is bringing another FLOOD ALERT this coming week.

What to do?

Especially if you have kids on Spring Break?

Well, if you haven’t been over to Hanover Lanes lately, they’ve renovated the place — including a new arcade area in the back (pretty sizable) with new games and a brand new bar/eating area — with PizzaHut Express with decent prices.  (Seemed like 1/2 the people bowling got the $3 =  soda + breadsticks combo by looking at the tables in all the lanes)

Here’s a great video that should inspire you all the way to Hanover Lanes on Route 10 in East Hanover:

To make it even more enticing and enjoyable, here’s a free printable coupon for two free games when you pay for two games:

Click on the thumbnail above to get the  full printable coupon for the discount.


QUESTION:  When was the last time you went bowling?
