Starbucks Offers 'Secret' Free Coffee Friday

Let's not get ahead of ourselves, it's only one cup. Read on for details.

I love a great cup o' joe.

And it seems I'm not the only one. Americans actually drink 400 million cups of coffee each day. According to CoffeeStatistics.com, that’s about 146 billion cups a year.

Hopefully, Starbucks executives know what they're in for by offering a FREE tall cup of coffee Friday, April 19. The deal will last until noon, local baristas said, noting that it was "supposed to be a secret."

"Please join us for a free tall House Blend. Tomorrow, until noon."
