Don’t Waste Your Money on Starbucks’ ‘Bearista’ Cup — Try These Cheaper Alternatives Instead
Forget the $30 Starbucks Bearista cup. These dupes are just as cute, and don't require standing in line for hours just to score Starbucks merch.
Whether you’re a Starbucks loyalist or a Costco champion, this holiday cup saga proves one thing: a little humor, accessibility and creativity goes a long way. And for those who missed out on the Bearista cup, Costco has quietly saved the day with a product that’s practical, funny and Instagram-ready.
Starbucks—who caused a frenzy with their bear cup drop—shared that Red Cup Day will hit stores Nov. 13, with customers receiving a free reusable red cup with any holiday drink order.
Starbucks released glass Bearista cups as part of its new holiday merchandise on Nov. 6, and they sold out quickly. One TikTok user claimed that employees took all of the limited-edition cups from the Starbucks in their local Kroger before customers could buy any.
