Free Starbucks In Yucaipa: How To Score Your Cup

YUCAIPA, CA — Have a holiday drink and let Starbucks pick up the tab. That's the idea behind the coffee company's latest promotion, which will feature more than 1,000 "pop-up parties" at select stores across the nation through the end of the year.

Included in the list for a party Friday is the Starbucks store in Yucaipa, at 34050 Yucaipa Blvd., Suite 200, according to the company.

Here's how it works: Each day for five days, more than 200 locations will be chosen to offer the promotion. You can view a list on the pop-up party site daily to view the next day's participating stores. And you have to visit during the one-hour window of the "party," from 1 to 2 p.m. local time, to get your complimentary beverage.

"Customers who visit a participating store will receive a free tall handcrafted espresso beverage of their choice, hot or iced, including Peppermint Mochas, Iced Toasted White Chocolate Mochas, lattes, macchiatos and more (one per customer)," Starbucks said in a news release.

The promotion runs from Friday through Tuesday.
