I'm now completely caught up with these cards. (Many thanks to Cecil and a few others.) If anyone needs any of these, please feel free to contact me....I have all of the cards from December '08 forward.
I don't go to Starbucks too often, but everytime that I do, I never see these cards, so I have not even tried to collect these.
Glad you can keep up with them.
Mike.

For those interested, once the promotion is over, there will be plenty to go around.

At the Starbucks I get mine from, I have to ask for them to remind them to put the cards out. On Tuesday evenings I stop in and always ask if they have this week's iTunes card, and the manager always says, "Oh yeah, I forgot to put them out" or something like that. He then goes to the back room and comes back with the sealed stack of them and puts them at the register.
Not sure how long the promotion will last, but it's been about 11 months now for the Pick of the Week cards, which began on April 15, 2008.
Many of the stores in Indianapolis don't carry the cards, saying that they aren't being sent them anymore. Most employees of these stores swear that the promotion has been over for months. i spoke with someone at Starbucks corporate and they wanted me to get a list together of the stores that don't put the cards out so they can contact the District Managers and see why they aren't following through with the national promotion. As long as I have several stores that I can get the cards from, I could care less about the politics of promotions. To be honest with you, I could use a break from the promotion, hopefully at the year mark it will be over. The set is already at 48 cards. BUT Corporate tells me that there is no end date planned. Oh well. I am running out of room!!

Any extra cards are welcome here. We have Dunkin' Donuts in my city and no Starbucks. .............Finally 1150 posts !!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I need a coffee or have I had too much ?????????). Finally went to Target and there was a Starbucks inside and the workers didnot know what I was asking for. Said they never got any of the cards. This message has been edited.

well evidentlly, the promotion is only for their "stand alone" stores. No store that is part of another business; i.e. Target, participate.
