The Starbucks app allows you to pay for your coffee using your mobile phone (currently only available at 6800 stores including all Target® Starbucks stores, just use the filter to see if your store accepts mobile payments). You can also use the app to register your card, check your balance, track your stars and reload your balance. Once you download the app, you’ll be asked to sign in or create an account.

Loose Threads and Other Random Thoughts
1. Our dog, Squeekerz, has a bad attitude. I suspect it’s because the kids named him “Squeekerz” and because they keep dressing him up like he’s a toy. That’s him in the picture with Miss 15, you can’t see it but his eyes are screaming “Help me!” When he was little, they used to dress him up in doll clothes… 2. Next week begins Finals’ Week at the college. I can’t believe I’ve been working at the library for a semester already. It went by so fast. I remember when I started, I wasn’t sure if I was going to make a connection with any of the students but last…

Have a Smart Phone? Use the Barcode Scanner App to Take Living Outside the Stacks with You on the Go!
Do you have a smart phone? Have you noticed that little barcode reader app in the App Store? Well, I did and, honestly, I had no idea what I’d use it for but I downloaded it anyway. Hey, I figured it’s free so give it a try and if I hate it ~ no harm, no foul. I heart it! It’s probably one of my most played with apps. I use it when I’m shopping and I can’t find the price on something, scan it with the barcode reader and voilá there’s the price. Or if I run across a book and I want to find out information about it,…
