Starbucks cuts up to 40% off select items during its Spring Sale. (The banner suggests discounts of up to 20% off, but we found steeper markdowns.) Plus, new customers get an extra 10% off via coupon code "STNPWEKD", cutting prices as low as $2.69 $6.29. Better still, coupon code "FSMSRANY" stacks to bag free shipping on all orders. Combined, that beats last week's mention of this sale (which only had up to 20% off and didn't include free shipping) and is the best general discount we've seen from Starbucks in recent months. (For further comparison, we saw 15% off sitewide in March.) Deal ends May 19. Some best bets, with prices after the above discounts:

• Starbucks Recycled Leather Reusable Cup Sleeve for $2.69
• Starbucks 16-fl. oz. Made Greener Tumbler for $7.19
• Starbucks Sugar and Creamer Set for $11.69
• Starbucks Coffee Journal by Moleskine (pictured) for $13.45
