Updated: Sep 26

Are you a coffee or tea lover who frequently goes to Pret A Manger, Starbucks, or Costa? If so, you might be missing out on a simple way to save lots of money: using a reusable cup! Many coffee chains now offer generous discounts and rewards for customers who bring their own reusable cups, making it a win-win situation for your wallet and the planet.

Pret A Manger: 50p Coffee Discount


Pret A Manger, a beloved UK-based coffee and food chain, is offering a substantial 50p discount on any drink when you bring your own reusable cup (see their reusable cup discount here).


This means that if you buy just one coffee per day using a reusable cup, you could save around £182.50 per year! That's £3.5 (one coffee) per week!


Starbucks: 25p Discount and 5p Cup Charge


Starbucks, one of the world's largest coffee chains, is offering a 25p discount for customers using reusable cups. They also recently introduced a 5p paper cup charge across all their UK stores to further encourage the use of reusable alternatives. By bringing your own cup, you not only avoid the 5p charge but also receive the 25p discount, effectively saving 30p on every drink.


If you buy a coffee five days a week, this adds up to a yearly saving of around £78! (See here for more information about their 5p cup scheme and reusable cups discounts).


Costa Coffee: Faster Free Drinks for Reusable Cup Users


Costa Coffee, another popular UK chain, rewards reusable cup users as part of their Costa Club loyalty program. Members who use a reusable cup can collect stamps twice as fast compared to those using disposable cups. This means you'll earn free drinks more quickly, saving money in the long run.

One Free Coffee Per Week


Honestly, who'd say 'no' to 1 free coffee per week?


Beyond the financial benefits, using a reusable cup significantly reduces the environmental impact of your coffee consumption. Disposable cups, even those made from paper, are a major contributor to waste and often end up in landfills or as litter. By bringing your own cup, you help minimize this waste and reduce the demand for single-use plastics.


Switching to a reusable cup is easy and convenient. You can find a variety of shops selling reusable bottles and cups on Ganddee (+ you can also use our exclusive discounts on the app to save money on reusable bottles too!). Keep your reusable cup in your bag or car so you always have it handy when you need your coffee fix.


Of course, we always encourage to shop local and support the thousands of amazing sustainable cafes listed on Ganddee, but if you really need to hop in one of these mega coffee chains, then don't forget to proudly display your reusable cup! With generous discounts and rewards offered by the likes of Pret A Manger, Starbucks, and Costa Coffee, there's never been a better time to make the switch to reusables.


So, grab a reusable cup and start enjoying your coffee while keeping a little extra change in your pocket!
