Ok, this post is really only loosely related to gift cards.

Starbucks recently announced that they are making WiFi at all their locations free for everyone, as of July 1st.  This is a great idea!

How is this related to gift cards?  Starbucks is one of the few gift cards that I can easily completely use up.  I am a coffee drinker and if I have a Starbucks gift card in my wallet, I will gladly go to Starbucks rather than somewhere else.  With free WiFi in the mix, I might actually take advantage of discounted Starbucks gift cards if they were in front of me.
