    I am over the moon with this! I ordered my Americano and breakfast sandwich…and the barista at Shrewsbury Starbucks in Central New Jersey asked proactively if I wanted it for HERE! She was so excited about it too. She said, “We’re doing this now. We can do both the drink and sandwich in for here ware. She actually was SELLING me, someone she doesn’t know runs our global EcoChallenge on Sustainability! Fantastic experience start to finish.
