Target Wants to Bring You Starbucks Curbside

Target said the top request from customers was to be able to add a Starbucks order to curbside pickups.

Target is sweetening its curbside pickup offering. Starting this fall, it will begin testing an option for customers picking up items or making a return to add a Starbucks order to that perk without having to leave their car. The retailer said the changes were prompted by more customers using the contact-less shopping option, which grew 60 percent in the last quarter. Target said the top request from customers was to be able to add a Starbucks order to curbside pickups. To use the new feature, shoppers planning a pick up or return can place a coffee order in the Target app and indicate when they’re “on their way.” A worker will deliver the order and their other items right to your car.
