(Editor's Note: An earlier version of this article gave an incorrect date for Starbucks' free-pastry promotion.)
This summer, you could just about eat for free once a week if you printed out the right coupon.
KFC gave away free grilled chicken. Arby's offered free BBQ bacon cheddar burgers.
And now, Starbucks is offering a free pastry from its new no trans fat, no artificial ingredient and no high fructose/corn syrup menu items Tuesday, July 21, from store opening until 10: 30 a.m.
"We know that tasting is believing," said spokeswoman Lisa Passe. "It's a great way to get new food into our customer's hands so they can enjoy a new delicious blueberry muffin with their morning latte."
To receive the pastry, customers must print off a coupon as well as purchase a brewed or handcrafted beverage. The coupons are available Friday morning on starbucks.com and mystarbucksidea.com as well as through the coffee giant's Twitter feed (@starbucks) and on their Facebook page.
