This Card appeared on the secondary market in July 2009. Though not the official name, we've dubbed it "Just for Fun" as it shows a simple Starbucks paper cup with three (3) check boxes. Starbucks has named it General Appreciation. Any of the 3 boxes can be checked for the recipient. The top box says: "You deserve a few cups on me", the second box is labeled "Just for Fun" and the third box says "You're the best".
Not since the "Dear Mom" Mothers Day card in 2005 has there been a Card that you can permanently write on.
This is one of three cards in testing through August 31st. Part of the official memo from Starbucks says:
"Stores in the greater Indianapolis market have been selected to participate in the Starbucks Occasion Card test beginning June 30. Three additional Card facings will be tested: Happy Birthday, Thank You and General Appreciation. The test will run through Aug 31 2009."
As of the first quarter of 2010, this Card hasn't been released, so it's considered Hard to Find.
