Starbucks Via Taste Test

We went to Starbucks Friday night to participate in their new product taste test. Via is a new product they are selling that is an instant coffee mix that is supposed to taste just like their regular coffee. They had a taste test advertised for this past weekend, where if you tried Via you got a free coffee, so as we were right by a Starbucks Friday night we decided to go in and try it out! Unfortunately the D-bag that was at the register couldn't handle the business at the store and told us they were only doing it from 7 AM to 11 AM, not knowing what the actual ad said we decided that he probably knew what he was talking about. So we left and went to a local coffee store and got Mocha Floats! Anyway once we got home I looked it up on Starbucks' website and there is no mention of times or that each store can do it as they please. Michelle even verified it on Sunday that it was not during those times by going to a Starbucks in NYC around 3 PM and getting it. So what I did was something I have wanted to do and will continue doing is I wrote Starbucks an Email through their website detailing our experience, and I am very interested to see if they respond. I will keep you updated!
