Some people are addicted to Starbucks as much as they're addicted to Twitter, and now they have a chance to mesh the two.

Starbucks is rolling out a new feature called Tweet-a-Coffee that lets people send $5 gift cards to friends via Twitter, just by tweeting their name to @tweetacoffee. All you have to do is sync your Starbucks account to Twitter and then link a credit card to that account. Once that is all set-up and ready to go, you can just tweet the handle of that special person to @tweetacoffee, and they'll receive the gift card you sent them. The first 100,000 people who sign up for the Tweet-a-Coffee program who have Visa cards will get a free $5 gift card for themselves when they send someone a gift card. (Which, essentially, means you'll just be getting your money back, but now you have to spend those extra $5 at Starbucks.)  If you want to get your Saint Nick on and want to start sending out some gift cards to make a few people happy, click here to get started.
