I went into Starbucks while traveling, bringing in my reusable travel mug, to have filled with green tea. To my delight Starbucks is monetarily acknowledging their thanks to those customers who bring in a reusable cup and save them the cost of a throw away cup. As a result the green tea cost $.27! Wow! The saleswoman said that the charge would have been $2.21. So… this left me open to donate the difference to an MS donation cup that was sitting on the Starbucks counter. Instead of contributing to the 30 million coffee cups that are thrown away daily in the USA, I was able to give my money to help the world, not hinder it!
Thanks Starbucks! Tell me of your coffee or tea story. Let’s inspire one another.
