After Luckin Coffee's 9.9 yuan promotion was scaled back, brands like Cotti Coffee and Tims rolled out short-term 9.9 yuan offers to grab market share. Starbucks, which once declared it would "compete on market, not price," recently suffered a system glitch during its March 8 Women's Day promotion, accidentally letting some consumers buy two large drinks for just 9 yuan. The loophole quickly sparked a frenzy of deal-hunting on social media, with some successfully placing orders while others had their payments canceled and refunded after checkout. Starbucks quickly fixed the bug, and the promotional price returned to 49.9 yuan for two cups. This accident not only gave consumers a taste of the thrill of "snagging a bargain," but also reignited discussion about the coffee price war. [more…]
