And I always give the cards back and encourage their reloading, even if they don't reload it right then they always get the card back. I talk up the program whenever I can, and have been talking up the (red) retail items. As a Starbucks partner, I'm proud we have made such an amazing impact. But we can always make an even bigger one. I try to do my part with (red)

I don’t really ever give customers a choice in gift card designs when we have the (red) cards in. And I always give the cards back and encourage their reloading, even if they don’t reload it right then they always get the card back.

I talk up the program whenever I can, and have been talking up the (red) retail items.

As a Starbucks partner, I’m proud we have made such an amazing impact. But we can always make an even bigger one.

It was pretty fun. Remember the Starbucks (Red) website in which people uploaded pictures of themselves and committed to buying a set number of (Red) drinks over the summer? It was pretty fun.
