Through 1/8, Starbucks is offering game plays to win Starbucks stars or free Starbucks for a week, month, 3 months, 6 months, a year, or even for life.

If you win 6 months, 1 year, or a lifetime of free Starbucks, you will receive an annual 1099-MISC for each tax year where the total value of the prizes redeemed is equal to $600 or more.

Normally you earn game plays by making purchases from Starbucks.

However, after signing up to play the game here, you can claim free plays by clicking here and filling out the form. Then check your email for the link to play for free. You’ll get another free pay every time you fill out the form. Select a new challenge from the form to keep getting free entries!

Match 3 tokens and you’ll win the prize.

    What does that mean it comes with 1099 misc?

  2. Ty

    Says I need an account with a registered card 🙁

    The 1099-MISC will not be for the ARV. It will be for the cost of the food/beverages that are purchased with the credits.

    The rules states “Grand, First and Second First Prize Winners will be responsible for income tax based on the retail price of the items that are redeemed and will receive an annual IRS Form 1099 for each tax year where the total value of the prize redeemed is equal to $600 or more.

      Good catch, I’ve updated the post.

      • Laura

        I’d been wondering about that… if you had to pay taxes on the ARV, I’m not sure I could afford to win!

    It’s letting me fill out the form as many times as I want. Each time, I get another email and another game play.

    • Joe

      It let me do that also about 10 times till doesn’t work

    The Starbucks for life is for 30 years. I guess if you drink Starbucks every day for 30 years…

    I won 75, 50, and Instant Win 10 bonus stars before it kicked me out.

      Thank you for your post. After 14 tries and not winning anything I was convinced it’s fixed. I guess it’s only somewhat fixed

  7. dave

    was able to do it about 20+ times using different browsers and incognito…
    however haven’t won anything yet and now it seems like they closed my account

  8. Momster

    I won 75 stars as well as 10 instant win stars!

  9. yeedle

    is this still supposed to be working?

  10. David

    I got like 20 free plays yesterday and 10 ish today. All in all I won 50 free stars yesterday and some more free plays. I have 2 of 3 of just about all of the options now. I’m probably missing the rare ones.

    I won a mug with an instant win piece. Got an email with a redemption bar code. Can purchase the mug in participating stores, up to $12.95 value.

    I feel like this is rigged. I’ve played so many times and each category has two filled but cannot manage to get the third

    • Oleg

      Jeje, same story for me … in addition now I can only get 1 play a day instead of 2 plays

    • Laura

      If you read through the small print, it explains how it works. Two pieces in each category are “common”, and there’s a limited number of the rare pieces for each category. Each of those rare pieces has been assigned a random timestamp, and whether you ever win that piece or not depends solely on if you are the first player to roll after that specific time.

    The link just leads me to the SBFL login page…

    • Sun

      You have to log in first. You need an account.

  15. abe

    i have played the games 2 times per day since it has started…its a complete rigged fake game

  16. Brian turner

    Agree. Game seems rigged

  17. Steven

    Anyone figure out the magical combination that allows you the most paid plays and entries with the least amount of money?
