Starbucks' New Cat Mug Is Starting Actual Cat Fights Between People In Real Life
Starbucks has found a way to turn a cute cat mug into a full-blown shopping frenzy. The limited-edition cup, which features a tiny cat paw inside a double-walled design, has become so popular in China that people are reportedly fighting over it.
The mug is part of Starbucks' Spring 2019 collection, and its appeal is easy to understand, especially for anyone who cannot resist cat-themed everything. But when a collectible item looks this adorable and only exists in limited numbers, things can get messy fast.
Now the cat mug is causing more drama than anyone probably expected. Read on.
Look how cute it is!!
This drama is giving Karen’s online rant about losing the free Puppaccino cup, then getting dragged.
But people are literally fighting just to get one!
People are also camping out to be the first to get one!
According to Beijing Youth Daily, the cups, which originally sold for CN¥199 (US$30), have been listed for as much as CN¥1,800 (US$269) on third-party resale sites.
Sooooo... anyone want to get me one?
