Your Fave Starbucks Drink on Your Back

Let's face it, you're either a lover or a hater. Myself, I can't help but drown myself in Starbucks coffee at every available opportunity. It's probably my biggest sin, and if I go to Hell it'll all be worth it.

Simply go to My Starbucks T-Shirt to create your favourite drink and see it in a fab design by Michael Knight of Project Catwalk. (Sorry, no Tall Skinny Bitchaccino available.)

Unfortunately, all of the free personalized shirts are gone. You can, however, still get your hands on a signed celebrity version and do something good for charity while you're at it.

You can bid on the celebrity tees at clothesoffourback.org. With names like Daniel Dae Kim (of Lost), Melina Kanakaredes (CSI: NY) and Seth Green on board, they will cost you a pretty penny. If you are happy to end up with lesser known names like Evan Ross the prices are still reasonable. In the end though, it's all for charity so if you can afford it and you want it don't hold back.

Proceeds from the auction benefit the Pediatric Epilepsy Project, Children's Defense Fund, Cure Autism Now and the emergency relief efforts in Darfur (specifically Friends of the World Food Program, Save the Children and the U.S. Fund for UNICEF).


If you're broke, or have no interest in celebrity names you can always get a desktop or icon with your own drink. Want to know what mine is? You only get to know if you promise to treat me to one.

Clothes Off Our Back charity auctions are here.
Customise your drink here.

I like the tall triple soy caffe latte. None of the celebrities agree with me!

Whenever I buy coffee from Starbucks I always wish I'd gone somewhere else. My Mocha always tastes like weak chocolate milk when I get it from them.

I gave them a try several times and I was always disappointed .... I just to my regular cafes now.

I'm very fussy about coffee. I admit it.

I like Peet's more, but Starbucks are certainly easier to find.

Hey, I like it because the girls they hired are mostly pretty, because calling out their fancy coffee names make me sound smart when I order...

Most of all, it gives me a reason to take a break at work to go to their store. Nobody has a problem with me doing that, sometimes, they will even pay for my gas if they want me to order one or two for them.

But then, I don't really like their coffee. tongue

I'm a local slut to the Java Hut which would be my local coffee scene lol but when i'm not available to go there then Starbucks sucks me in. And usually its for a fancy latte which comes miles behind my favorites and costs the same if not more. Grr but I like it. Beats D&D ANYDAY!!

You have to at least give them credit for doing something for charity.

I'm all about my Venti, Skim, 6 pump Vanilla Latte, extra hot and extra foamy.
Or a London Fog.

Starbucks does a lot for charity, they have matched the donations that my husband and I give to the Humane Society every year smile
They also did a book drive for elementary schools in our area.

They donate the food that they sell as well to shelters instead of throwing it out.

Not to mention they have a great benefits program...unlike where I work now where it's like pulling teeth to get any kind of positive employee treatment.

Am I part of a dying breed that likes coffee flavored coffee? I can't stand Starbucks because I get odd looks when I order a regular black coffee...
