☕️🐦 mmm….caffeine

Today’s coffee offer is brought to you Bluebird Coffee, which is seriously one of my favorite places to set up shop for a couple of hours, drink some coffee, and get some work done. That table they have along the front of the store at the La Crosse location facing out the window is 🤌.

ANYWAYS—here’s what you should do. You should grab that friend that you’ve been meaning to get a coffee with, and you should meet them at one of Bluebird’s locations, and you should buy them coffee. Why, you ask?

Because when you buy one of these delicious Holiday Oatnog Lattes from them, they’re going to give you one half off.

To recap—you get coffee, you get to hang with a friend (or your spouse), you get to support a wonderful local business, and you save money (probably to use on one of their amazing bakery items).

🫡 I wish you well in all of your caffeine-related endeavors.

*Offer is valid through 12/14
