Starbucks gift vouchers
Discussion
Bit of a long shot, but does anyone know if it's possible to buy an e-gift voucher for Starbucks for use in another country?
I have a colleague who works in Hungary, they've helped me out quite a bit over the past few months so wanted to get them a little thank you as I know they like it. Gift vouchers bought in the UK look like they can only be used in the UK, Ireland, US and Canada.
I did try the Hungarian Starbucks website as I thought I might be able to order it through that, but they don't have an English language option and unless I stick the entire site into google translate there's no way I can figure out the Hungarian version
Anyone know of another way? Just want to email them a tenner's worth of vouchers, surely in the year 2019 it's possible?
TIA

in the FAQ section.
Looks like you'll have to buy them in Hungary first, perhaps speak to their customer service to see if they can help?

Although this person isn’t a secretary and the flight’s not until February so I think I’ll pass.

easiest thing would be to probably fly over to hungary, pop into a starbucks and buy one at the counter. 
As I was bored yesterday I did a quick search for flights, apparently I can get a return from Stansted to Budapest for £40 with Ryanair. So with the £10 voucher that would set me back £50, which coincidentally is the going rate for gifts for secretaries https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...Although this person isn’t a secretary and the flight’s not until February so I think I’ll pass.
