It's quite upsetting that the Starbucks rewards program doesn't allow to scan and attain points across the pond in the UK. You know, the barista scans the barcode from the app and it accumulates points for redeeming later. It also doesn't allow me to install the UK Starbucks app either. So stuck with the USA app in the UK LOL
A few years back I had a UK friend of mine get me a Costa card and mail it to me. Although there seems to be some Costa locations in the US (I may be wrong), I doubt my UK card is going to be accepted here in the US. :)

Are you back east by chance? When we were in Boston and drove up to Maine... it felt like there was a DD at ever exit and on every corner! Don't get me wrong we liked it, actually liked it a little much... but holy smokes!

You caught a drought. When I was in Philly and Boston, there were DDs every opposite corner, so there was never a lack of Boston Cremes...

... But I couldn't find a grocery store with a jar of salsa to save my life.

BL.

Funnily enough the balance ( US balance )I had worked for purchasing beverages here in the UK Starbucks.
But the app isn’t allowing me to accrue rewards by having it scanned at the point of sale. Oh well 🥲

Oh so in my case it doesn’t work like that. Just found the following.
