My daughter is obsessed with Snoopy. I woke up at 3:30 a.m. to hunt down Starbucks' new viral cup.
Charlotte Mandrier woke at 3:30 a.m. to get Starbucks' new Snoopy cup for her daughter's birthday and spent about $200 on Peanuts merchandise.
Charlotte Mandrier's 9-year-old daughter is a huge fan of Peanuts and Snoopy, watching the movie annually and listening to its soundtrack. During her daughter's birthday week, the family learned that Starbucks had partnered with Peanuts to release a limited-edition collection of merchandise inspired by The Great Pumpkin. Charlotte decided to purchase items for her daughter, waking up at 3:30 a.m. on Tuesday, September 14, to beat the crowds at the nearest Starbucks in Chevy Chase, Maryland.
Arriving at 4 a.m., she found the shop still closed due to a staffing issue, but others had already formed a small line. After waiting for about an hour, the store finally opened, and Charlotte bought a Snoopy cup, tote bag, keychain, mug, and pins – all of which cost around $200.
