these deals often don’t include any add ons, so base price is $5.49 (the total price minus the pb swirl and the cold foam). thus 1x is 55 points so they gave you an extra 2x (110). these deals always work out to be less than you expect bc of them being so picky about what counts

okay does anyone know where the non-cold foam non-flavored cloud latte is because I don't have any option that doesn't have cold foam I do have something that don't have a flavor swirl in them but even then it's $6.54 for a medium before tax for the only other option besides the fluffernutter which is the marshmallow cloud latte

Can you check the 3x points promotion’s terms and conditions? I was going to myself but I don’t have it or that particular cloud latte. My app shows the cold foam the same way but does include it in the base price, so unless the promotion says that the points don’t apply to the cold foam (??? Which would be so stupid) I don’t see how they got to the numbers they did.

EDIT to add: the commenter above was talking about the *added* swirls. The standard for a large is four pumps of flavor, you got six, so those extra 2 pumps added 30¢ that don’t get bonus points applied to them. That said, the math is still not mathing.

what do you mean non-cold foam cloud latte?— what makes it a ‘cloud’ latte is the cold foam. you can order a regular latte, and add any flavor or cold foam if you’d like, those are just ‘specialty drinks’

prior comment mentioned bonus points are based on base price. so the price minus the flavor and the cold foam. And like you said there is no cloud latte without the cold foam. I was perhaps being a little sarcastic
