How Was Your Day?

$20 Starbucks Gift Card Giveaway – Open WW

Fall is officially here, and I can’t wait! I’m so ready for cooler temperatures, changing leaves, and all the tasty treats that come out around this time of year. One of my other favorite things is the return of Pumpkin Spice Latte, even though it means the disappearance of my beloved S’mores Frappuccino. Yeah, I’m one of “those people” and I make no apologies. Although, I have been loving the Salted Caramel Mocha frappuccinos so far this year. Anyway, to help celebrate fall, we’re giving away a $20 Starbucks gift card. YAY, right?!?!

Ready to enter? Do so in the Rafflecopter form after the jump. Open WW, too.
