On November 6, Starbucks rolled out its Holiday menu and merchandise, marking the return of old favorites and the debut of new items. Across social media, one limited-time commodity in particular has been all the rage: the Glass Starbucks Bearista Cold Cup.
This limited-time $30, 20-ounce glass Tumblr cup has captured the hearts of fans with its bear-shaped body and green beanie lid. Since stores receive a limited supply, customers compete to get their hands on it. Of course, with any viral phenomenon, some people ruin it for everyone. In this case, it was the Starbucks baristas, as one woman alleged in a video that has 2.2 million views.
