I didn’t make it to a Starbucks today to try to pick up the puzzle for the crossword competition, but from what I’m reading in some blogs, maybe it wouldn’t have been woth the effort anyway. I’ll try to see if I can get a puzzle tomorrow.
On the Starbucks website, there are instructions on how to get puzzles through the mail. It’s a pain, but you can still get the puzzle even if your local Starbucks drops the ball.
The manager at the Minneapolis Starbucks told me today she was looking online for where the puzzle was supposed to be, but without success. She said she’d call me back.
This looks like a site after my own heart!
Thanks for coming by the site!
I was unable to get the puzzle today only because the Starbucks I went to didn’t have any Sunday NYTs left. They did, however, have a little display for the puzzle competition. It looks like I’ll be sending Starbucks a SASE.
Anyone got a pdf of the week 4 puzzle? I’ve been trying to track it down. Starbucks says if you go to the store, the manager can print the puzzle from company email, but when I went, they gave me week 3 instead of 4!!!
I think you should go to crosswordfiend.blogspot.com to find a pdf of the puzzle.
actually, the mailing in for a copy of the puzzle cutoff date was the 20th of March, so if you didn’t plan ahead, you can’t get a copy
