If you had a choice between a free, unlimited Starbucks gift card, or a free subscription on Netflix, which one would you choose? Pretty tempting, right?

We wanted to know what fifth-graders in our school would choose, so we asked 50 kids that question, and here are our results:

Only 25¢ for 5 months

Unlimited Digital Access. Cancel anytime.

Starbucks: 31

Netflix: 19

Looks like Starbucks is the big hit for fifth-graders! They like their fancy drinks a lot. Many kids feel there are enough shows on regular TV that they don’t need a free Netflix subscription yet. We think we might get different results if we asked older kids, but this is how the fifth-graders feel.
