I was at Starbucks this morning (just like every morning) and I noticed that the cashier was scanning a mobile phone of the person in front of me in line. When I got to work, I looked up what types of mobile options that Starbucks is offering and stumbled upon this article:

Starbucks rolled out a mobile payment option for android users this month. You are able to load $$ onto your phone and when the cashier scans your account on your mobile device, $$ is deducted from your account. This works just like a gift certificate, but better!
