Starbucks has launched its newest holiday cup, and the excitement quickly turned into chaos. The limited-edition Teddy Bear Cup, featuring an adorable bear in a festive sweater, appeared in stores this week, triggering massive lines and overwhelming demand.
As every holiday season, Starbucks releases special drinks and collectible items like mugs and cups. However, this year’s release has taken frenzy to a new level. Many customers reported camping out overnight, eager to secure the coveted item only to discover that some stores received fewer than ten cups.
“Why release something this limited if everyone wants one?”
The scarcity immediately turned the Teddy Bear Cup into a collector’s treasure and a lucrative resale item. Online listings already show prices exceeding $150. This high demand even led to heated confrontations in several locations across the United States, including cities such as El Paso.
The release of Starbucks’ limited Teddy Bear Cup sparked nationwide enthusiasm, shortages, and even conflicts as fans rushed to grab the charming collectible.
