The 1st October is International Coffee Day! Now in order to enjoy and celebrate it, we have actually created our own guide that can hugely help you to know about how to request free trophies. Read on, then grab your free cuppa Joe and enjoy your compliment caffeine-chatter.
Almost all the offers which are available in our guide are available year-round, but at the first of October you can get a coffee absolutely free from any Costa Express machine! Also, if you find yourself near a Young Pub, you can grab a free Americano – go to the ‘My Treats’ section in the ‘On Drops’ section of their app and you’ll get the offer. On the other hand if you have a registered subway card / their use – it will be loaded with 100 points so you can buy free coffee. Enjoy! So be happy if you are a coffee lover because now there are plenty of ways by which you can get free coffee and enjoy a lot.
1. Mobile Rewards
Many mobile networks have rewarding apps that offer incentives for free use, and since coffee is the way to our hearts, they often offer users free cups. For example, if you are with O2, you will get a free hot drink, Iced Latte or Iced Americano every Tuesday or Wednesday.
Vodafone and all three have rewarding apps. Although free drinks may not be as regular as those on O2 (luckily and so on!), it is very common for coffee freebies to recur every time. So, make sure your network provider has a loyalty utility and if they do, download it so you don’t miss out!
Once downloaded, check the Rewards section of the app to see if the new gift is out for you. They offer all kinds of freebies – not just coffee! Fixed, days out, ice cream, origami and lots, we’ve seen for years.
2. Loyalty Phone Apps
Like mobile rewards, many restaurants and cafes have loyal applications. Cafe Nero, Costa, Greggs, McDonald’s and other big name restaurants use these. Download them and you will find a free coffee and other treats waiting for you in their reward section from time to time.
Number of companies reward you with coffee every day!
For example, join Waitrose loyalty program, and get free coffee for everyone from their self-service machine. Single. Day. You must purchase at the store and bring a reusable trophy with you or you will not be able to claim it. Please read their D&Cs to see what the purchase is – but usually anything above 10B will do the trick.
If you have an IKEA family card, everyone you are with can enjoy free coffee at one of their stores from Monday to Friday. The dream is a great way to get excited when going on never-ending path through living rooms and kitchens or going with your Swedish meatballs for lunch.
3. Welcome Rewards
And, even better, some companies even offer you a free gift to sign up!
Download the Greggs app and you will be given a free cup of coffee to sign up for. Again, Greggs usually offers free gifts like sausage rolls, desserts, soft drinks and more, so sign up to use their generosity.
We also heard in Grapefruit that if you download and sign up for the Cafe Nero app you will get a cup of coffee for free as a welcome gift.
4. Loyalty Cards
A lot of cafes use loyalty cards, which allow you to earn points for every coffee you buy. Once you purchase a certain amount, you will be rewarded for free! These ‘faith cards’ may be natural pieces of paper and cards or may be within their reward use.
Areas that use these include Starbucks, Cafe Nero and Costa. Small coffee shops also use this reward system, so always find out if you have one of them and you can get free coffee soon!
5. Free Samples
A lot of companies offer free samples and free coffee competitions to promote a product, hoping that those who try it will buy it soon. If you monitor our website and subscribe to our alerts, you will find that there are plenty of free coffee samples to try. These can range from bean bags and freshly ground to instant and machine nut sachets. In the past, we have had models from big name brands like Carte Noir and Nescafe Azera, as well as smaller, more craft companies.
That’s it for now, folks! We hope you enjoy your coffee, and it’s so delicious because it’s free!
