This implies that customers who have MyWaitrose loyalty cards will no longer need to bring their own disposable cup in order to get their free drink when they purchase in those establishments. To redeem their drink, they will still need to scan their loyalty card. Waitrose debuted the update last week at the reopening of its renovated John Barnes shop, along with a revamped Nero coffee station.
