Christmas might just come early for you when you answer this question: “Why Do You Love Starbucks?”

For this essay writing contest, the coffee chain is giving away 1000 Starbucks Card Gift packages. No typo there – it is indeed a thousand!

The prize package includes:

• One (1) P500 Starbucks Card
• Two (2) P300 Starbucks Card to share with your friends
• One (1) Leather Card Carrier

Ain’t that the best? I know, I sent my entry already!

For this contest, though, they’ll be needing quite a bit of personal information from you, like your Facebook account URL , phone number and monthly household income.

If you’re cool with that, then head on to www.fluidsurveys.com/s/StarbucksCardPH/ to send your entry. Last day is on October 20, 2013.

Full contest mechanics can be found here: http://philippines.starbucks.com/en-US/_Our+Stores/Promotions.htm

Good luck to all of us!
