The weather’s due to get much colder this week 🥶 and there’s nothing like a hot cup of coffee to start your day right. This Money Monday, I’ve rounded up the best deals to help you score free coffee from your favourite high street spot.

1️⃣ Free coffee from Costa

To earn free treats with Costa Club, download the Costa app and join their loyalty program. You’ll collect a “bean” for every drink you buy, with 10 beans earning you a free handcrafted drink. Bring your own reusable cup to unlock rewards twice as fast, meaning you’d need to purchase just 5 drinks to earn a free one. You’ll also get a free birthday cake and exclusive offers like bonus beans and app-only surprises.

2️⃣ Free coffee from Caffè Nero

Get rewarded with a free coffee from Caffè Nero when you refer a friend. You can find your unique link or QR code in the app in the ‘Invite a Friend’ section in the Home tab. Once your friend signs up and makes their first purchase, you’ll each unlock a free coffee in the app. Not yet a member? Sign up using my referral link.

3️⃣ Free coffee from Black Sheep Coffee

Getting a free coffee at Black Sheep Coffee is simple. When you sign up to their app using a referral code you net 3,000 points - that’s enough for a filtered coffee or tea (barista drinks need 5,000). Download the app and enter a referral code from a friend (or feel free to use my code, DCJIG) and start earning.

Once you enjoy your free drink, share your referral link from the app’s “Rewards” tab with friends. They’ll earn points, and you’ll get a free barista drink voucher after their first purchase!

Savvy Investors Know Where to Get Their News—Do You?

Here’s the truth: there is no magic formula when it comes to building wealth.

Luckily, we have The Daily Upside. Created by Wall Street insiders and bankers, this fresh, insightful newsletter delivers valuable insights that go beyond the headlines.

And the best part? It’s completely free. Join 1M+ readers and subscribe today.

Have a great week ✌️
