Update: CA is now sold out, hurry up if you want the NY card!

Get A $10 Starbucks Gift Card For Just $5 (CA area) Sold out!
(Thanks for allowing me to refer you to Pinchit
)
I just bought one of these myself. I had read that you may need a NY or CA billing zip code to checkout, so I used part of one of the 166 AMEX gift cards I got for free during the Gift Chain promotion and used “11213″ as the billing zip code and it worked!
I instantly had the $10 Starbucks Gift card in my pinchit account and was able to transfer the $10 of Starbucks funds from the new gift card onto my existing Starbucks Green Elite card. Easy as pie
If you don’t have an existing Starbucks card to transfer the funds into you can just print the eGift card that you instantly receive after the purchase and bring it into any participating Starbucks store or just show a barista the eGift card code on your smartphone.
You can also pick up a physical Starbucks gift card in Starbucks (activate it with $1 in-store to make sure it’s active) and then register it online to start earning elite status awards and transfer the eGift card funds onto the physical gift card via the online gift card transfer tool.

can I get a physical gift card mailed to me with this deal or is it only for reloading other gift cards?

You need the zip code / address in San Francisco (San Diego doesn’t work:)

Even clearing the cache doesn’t allow for another purchase on another credit card with a different name on someone else’s account. Any explanation?

does zip code 91607 work for the CA area deal?

94121 works with any credit card (remember to change state to CA). One per IP.

@al613:
Very cool!
I guess they don’t verify billing addresses then.
@Chaim b:
Login to your registered Starbucks card and you will see the option to transfer from another card to your card.

@yitz: I used a program called TOR, google it, it comes as a package that you open it up and it launches its own browser (some version on firefox) and it’s connected through it own proxy.
also, the NY is now sold out as well
