Thats the trick you see. You get a 2 hour window, so obviously the Starbucks & java fanatics are at work. This way, they get the chairity ticket, an extra boost of traffic & recognition, without suffering as much of a blow.

It's smart if you think about it... I wonder if its just standard coffee with whatever they have on the counter or whether its anything coffee wise on the menu..
