They won't be charging $25 for the card anymore, but it won't give a discount either? There will be random benefits though? I dislike this. I want my
10% discount. 
Boo. Starbucks Gold Card is stopping the 10% discount?

I received the email from them about that yesterday...boo. It looks like you will be able to get a free drink every 15 visits. I like the 10% more.

which is why you should make bffs with the baristas at your store and they'll hook it up for you.

if they were still charging $25/year and NOT offering 10%.

I am happy that we get put on the gold status right away though! Still doesn't help me since I've drastically cut my visits and I'll probably hit
my free drink come July
 Although the no fee is nice because I was considering not renewing it and switching to another program.

Dude, I stayed at a Marriott in South Florida for over 3 weeks and made friends, and they were the most awesome baristos/baristas ever. I got like free oatmeal
like once a week and they were constantly upgrading me to Venti Chais. They kicked ass.

If I went to the same Starbucks all the time, then I would certainly make friends. Perhaps I'll start going to one in particular and see how that works out
for me.
