The limited-edition Starbucks Metal Card, according to an article in today's Chicago Tribune, will be available for sale this Friday via gilt.com, or Thursday for rewards members. The stainless steel item will cost $450. Not all the four-fifty goes to custom-made lattes, other beverages, or the range of Starbucks stuff. Fifty dollars is taken off the top to pay for the card itself.
OK -- it's not for everyone. However, at four dollars per cup, the card would provide the lucky gift-getter with one hundred cups of coffee. That's a lot of Joe, even for the person who has "everything." Would you pay a fifty dollar premium just for opportunity to own a nice, shiny Starbucks card?
