										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230;a Peppermint Brownie Cake Pop. Nope, not the free <a href="http://www.starbucks.com/win">Starbucks for Life</a> grand prize. Seems like every Starbucks Rewards member got a free code, but I didn&#8217;t win. My win came from an iced coffee purchase and entering in the long code on the bottom of the receipt.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.pulpconnection.net/2014/12/starbucks-for-life-i-won/sbux-life4/" rel="attachment wp-att-26073"><img data-tf-not-load="1" fetchpriority="high" loading="auto" decoding="auto" data-recalc-dims="1" fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-26073 size-full" src="https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life4.png?resize=359%2C640&#038;ssl=1" alt="sbux-life4" width="359" height="640" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life4.png?w=359&amp;ssl=1 359w, https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life4.png?resize=168%2C300&amp;ssl=1 168w" sizes="(max-width: 359px) 100vw, 359px" /></a></p>
<p>Playing this contest is kinda weird. First you go to the <a href="http://play.starbucks.com/">Starbucks Play site</a>. Then you enter in a long, long code (or copy &amp; paste from an email). Then you have to answer a CAPTCHA-like question.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.pulpconnection.net/2014/12/starbucks-for-life-i-won/sbux-life1/" rel="attachment wp-att-26070"><img data-tf-not-load="1" data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-26070 size-medium" src="https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life1.png?resize=168%2C300&#038;ssl=1" alt="sbux-life1" width="168" height="300" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life1.png?resize=168%2C300&amp;ssl=1 168w, https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life1.png?resize=575%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 575w, https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life1.png?w=750&amp;ssl=1 750w" sizes="(max-width: 168px) 100vw, 168px" /></a></p>
<p>Getting past this CAPTCHA on a mobile device, you then erase the glitter to see what&#8217;s underneath. On mobile Safari, don&#8217;t get too excited with your swipes and trigger a back swipe in the browser.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.pulpconnection.net/2014/12/starbucks-for-life-i-won/sbux-life2/" rel="attachment wp-att-26071"><img loading="lazy" data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-26071 size-medium" src="https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life2.png?resize=168%2C300&#038;ssl=1" alt="sbux-life2" width="168" height="300" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life2.png?resize=168%2C300&amp;ssl=1 168w, https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life2.png?w=359&amp;ssl=1 359w" sizes="(max-width: 168px) 100vw, 168px" /></a></p>
<p>Most times, you&#8217;ll see the consolation entry for a chance at the Starbucks for Life giveaway. Hopefully, you do see a prize or two (like a cake pop) come your way.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.pulpconnection.net/2014/12/starbucks-for-life-i-won/sbux-life3/" rel="attachment wp-att-26072"><img loading="lazy" data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-26072 size-medium" src="https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life3.png?resize=168%2C300&#038;ssl=1" alt="sbux-life3" width="168" height="300" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life3.png?resize=168%2C300&amp;ssl=1 168w, https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life3.png?resize=575%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 575w, https://i0.wp.com/www.pulpconnection.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/sbux-life3.png?w=750&amp;ssl=1 750w" sizes="(max-width: 168px) 100vw, 168px" /></a></p>
<p>Up to two entries per day, and I don&#8217;t know if the codes expire at the end of the day, meaning be sure to enter your codes right away. You can also request a code <a href="http://play.starbucks.com/#get_code">without making a purchase</a>. Good luck!</p>
