Website Offers ‘Starbucks Addict’ $1,000 to Switch to Local for a Month

Coffee fanatics all take their caffeine kick differently. Some like it iced, others go for black, and some like it anywhere in between. In fact, 83% of American adults drink coffee, a number that shows no sign of decreasing and probably one of the most popular coffee shops in America is Starbucks, which has over 30,000 locations nationwide.

Website business.org is offering $1,000 to a chosen "Starbucks addict" willing to switch to local coffee shops for a full month. Yes, you will get paid to drink coffee! According to UPI, the company is seeking "a self-professed Starbucks junkie" who "seriously loved their coffee" to document the experience of switching from the international chain to locally-owned coffee shops.

All you have to do is visit 8 local coffee shops in a month, take photos, compare costs and blog about your experience. The deadline to apply is September 30, 2019.
