We've first got the heads up about Starbuck's 2009 planner from 3-Seconder, which had us heading straight down to get ours. That accomplished we saw that they had a tumbler up for grabs at RM10 too.
Call us a sucker for Starbucks, but at nice Starbucks tumbler at RM10? We've bought their tumblers on occasions as birthday presents, and never had one for ourself. 'Course, considering that we did get some sorta thermos tumbler from them to use throughout our IMU days and we'd also got the Bodum cafetiere from them...
Only while the leather planner promo is for the entire December, the tumbler promo only goes on the 17th December. Because today, the 17th, is their 10th anniversary.
Ok so today it's really a shameless plug for Starbucks, and it's not as if we're getting any extra freebies asides from the free coffee that they're giving out today. But free coffee we did get, and since the coffee was free and we wanted the tumbler, we'd brought down our City Mug too to get a Hazelnut Black (which sadly can not compare to a Hazelnut Latte but given that we somehow gotten lactose intolerant since we came back from Glasgow...).
So now we got the tumbler, snagged ourselves yet another grande/venti-sized plastic cup, took their 4-cup tray (you know, the one that looks like an egg tray), hassled the cashier who forgot to give us our discount for bringing our own mug (who also might have neglected to charge us extra for the Hazelnut shot)...it's a good thing we had our colleague follow us, 'cos we couldn't have made it back to the office on our own.
Now more fodder to decorate the office with!

Okay all of you guys should stay calm when they have another anniversary. ITs not a drought season okay! hahha
LoL the most of lecturers now have this common mailbox, looks like more like a garbage bin, outside the faculty halls.
Common class assignments are handed to the Academic Affairs Dept in makeshift trays (think cardboard!)
I think Mr. David (being a senior lecturer and all) most probably maintained his old pigeonhole.
My class has lectures from him and his SISTER back-to-back last sem. Did you know she's the CEO of Sunway Medical Centre?
And he is STILL the MPharm programme coordinator, and YPN is still speaking with her parrot-voice and really bad colour scheme for handouts.
Hmm, you were from P1/200X?
Sure you aren't getting advertising payment from Starbucks? :P I got the free cup as well!
is there anything remotely drinkable at Starbucks other than coffee....
any for me?!?! :D
*Tak tau malu*
Dem, no free coffee at leisure mall's outlet >:(
Fable Frog: Much preferable strategy than making us drink to redeem!
Joshua: If you kept on snoozing...then at that point you should not be needing coffee.
Nase: Sweet!
Medie007: You need to find a local Starbucks branch to chill at to begin with. :)
Alice: Just that we so need our coffee.
Savante: Now to test if they give out more than just one free cup!
Henry Yeo: Oh yes. Potable water.
FeR: JoFo tak bantu? :P
Jason: Awww. Nevermind soon you won't be near Leisure Mall.
