Did anyone see this collaboration happen (again)? The Starbucks Stanley Cup was the collab product they released last November 2023, and the hype for the newest limited edition item remains. On January 3, it was rumored that the second Starbucks Stanley Cup would hit the shelves. If you’re one of those tumbler and cup collectors, here’s everything you need to know about this newest collaboration item.
Is The Starbucks Stanley Cup Available Worldwide?
Unfortunately, it isn’t. However, you may stumble upon these cups on online selling sites like eBay, although you must expect their price to increase (a lot more than retail). Last November, the red Starbucks Stanley Cup had everyone running to the nearest Starbucks to them and even camping just to get a hand of the cup. This time around, the Starbucks Stanley Cup comes in pink (yes, no other difference from the red one, just its color).

The tumbler brand launched their Stanley Valentine’s Day limited edition cups which reached the shelves of Target exclusively last January 2, and circulating clips of people purchasing it went viral online. Each cup was at $240 and a maximum of two tumblers per person was allowed.

Now, a Starbucks Stanley cup again will be the star of the few passing days, as TikTok users, who seemed to be Starbucks baristas, had shared videos with a glimpse of the upcoming tumbler. According to a barista on TikTok, the Starbucks Stanley Cup will be very limited, even if the demands are rooftop high. They shared that their store only got less than 40, and given that this is a Target exclusive, it makes it more limited. If Target is strict at two cups, the famous coffeehouse company keeps it at one cup per person.
@peachiemariam Be nice to your baristas and to others in line!! 🫶 #starbucks #starbies #target #targetstarbucks #fyp #viral #barista #baristatok #peachiemariam #targetbarista #starbucksbarista #starbiestok #baristalife #starbucksdrinks #stanley #starbucksstanley #pinkstanley
Price And Netizens’ Reactions
The previous Starbucks Stanley collaboration products retail a little less than $50 in the coffeehouse’s stores. This newest pink tumbler is expected to be sold at the same price of $49.95. If you plan to ask a barista to reserve a cup for you, that’s pretty much unlikely because of the limited stocks each Starbucks store has. So, if you wish to get a hand, it would be perfect to go early and hope for the best.
It’s confusing for others how there are people who purchase these cups frequently and every after a cup gets released. Some even shared photos of others lining up and camping for a chance at the Starbucks Stanley Cup.
Across the country, crowds are lining up as early as 3 a.m. to get their hands on the exclusive pink "Galentine's Day" Starbucks Stanley cups.

It was known that people were trying to encourage each other to boycott Starbucks because of accusations of being pro-Palestine. With the new Starbucks Stanley Cup, other netizens picked on how people seemingly forgot about the boycott. Here are some of their reactions.

Moreover, a person goes trending on X after a clip of them jumping over the counter to steal one (or a box) of the Starbucks Stanley cup. Who would have thought that this would happen over a pink cup? We didn’t.
