No chance of that happening here!

It happens a lot here.

People can't tell it's in a Target?! You should charge them double.

The mobile order button on the register is for guests wrongly mistakening the Target Starbucks for another location that participates. You're supposed to give them their order and press that button to maintain guest experience. It was communicated via an addendum.

That could lead to lots of missed cash from drinks if people catch on....

We only do it once in a blue moon and if the guest is understanding. I got into it with a guest demanding that I honor it and my ETL-HR heard and came and told them we didn't have to honor anything and they left.

@CoquiAzul, how is your team doing now?

They are doing fine. They are much stronger than when they first started. I'm really pleased with them so far.

Your team is doing fine because of your leadership. You lead by example.

Thank you. It means a lot, especially knowing how we were when I first took over.

Has anyone had their Starbucks go through a refresh before? Mine is scheduled in July and I have some questions. The overview says "Scope varies by store and usually includes a fresh coat of paint and front and back counter replacement. Select stores receive a new warm food assortment." I know I'm getting warming and that Starbucks will be closed for 5 days but will have the same payroll (to allow TMs to continue to get their hours, although it will mostly be used for the sales floor). One document said that Food Ave would be closed, but the other didn't mention it at all. I've also heard of some stores that have gotten rid of Food Ave altogether, although I doubt that will happen.

 

[Yetive]

Haven't been through one. I think it would take more than 5 days to get rid of FA. 5 days would probably be what would be needed for paint and counters. If you don't already have warming, it's good to have it. We only have Sbux, and sell lots of sandwiches.

My former store has been waiting FIVE YEARS for a 'remodel', 'refresh' or something.
They have fixtures from 10+ yrs ago when they first opened.

 

[Coqui]

There's a rumor that we may be getting remodeled this summer. I hope it's true, we are pretty beat down.

I hope so. We haven't even been there that long, and we aren't that busy, and I would already like to be freshened up.

 

[Coqui]

I hope we all do. They should expand us to serve more Starbucks merchandise and other products. Not only would it drive sales with more product but if we looked nicer, it would be more appealing to guests walking by.

I got 150 hours on the new schedule I am writing! Thanks for positive thoughts coming my way.

Yes! Start planning for happy hour, have you guys increased your order due to Starbucks updating its ordering system?

 

[Yetive]

Yes. My receiver will go nuts when it comes in.

 

[Coqui]

I emailed the store team in anticipation. I'm expecting 5 pallets. I ordered 26 boxes of coffee base and 20 creme base lol

 

[redeye58]

Dayum, Coqui.....
I'd say that's cray-cray but I remember the volume of your store.

 

[Coqui]

I go through more than 10 boxes of frappuccino base in a week, and with frappy hour coming, I'm expecting to go through an additional 4 or 5 boxes in addition to that.

Glad to hear Spot are doing this special, know they normally do frappy happy hour but wasn't there a Starbucks promo recently that Spot didn't participant in? Must check gold card balance!!

We didn't participate in the "Member Monday's" one of the promos being half off on all the frappuccinos.

We weren't supposed to. It was on workbench.
