Earn 1,000 Skymiles with Two Starbucks Orders

Tl;dr: Sign up and order Starbucks two times within a week and earn 1,000 Delta Skymiles.

One of our first posts here was about getting Delta Skymiles on Starbucks purchases. It’s a quintessential lazy points hack: link your Delta account to your Starbucks account, forget about it, earn miles towards free flights on every dollar you spend on the coffee you were going to order anyway. 

The two companies are upping the ante for the next few weeks with a special offer: make two purchases at Starbucks within a week, get 1,000 Skymiles. 

You’ll need to enroll by September 12th, and make the purchases within one week of enrolling. 

As a general matter, I don’t recommend spending money just to get points. But as a coffee addict, I was probably going to go get coffee at least twice within a week anyway, so it’s no trouble to get it at Starbucks, which is a regular stop for me anyway. 1,000 miles is a solid chunk of miles, especially when you consider some of the Skymiles sales Delta offers on a regular basis: 

So if you’re planning on making a couple of Starbucks runs soon, make sure you’ve linked your accounts and enrolled in this offer at an opportune time!
