Consumers may be rattled by inflation and fears about the economy, but that hasn’t stopped them from flocking to Starbucks for the coffee chain’s latest limited offering: a 20-ounce cup shaped like a teddy bear.
Starbucks unveiled on Wednesday its “Bearista Cold Cup,” selling for $29.95. The item sold out within hours, with some customers complaining of people in line shoving one another to stake a claim over the product. Others claimed they waited in store lines for an hour, only to see employees take two cups off the shelf and buy them themselves.
