yep...its a travel mug. Costs $40.00 and they fill it free for the month of Jan. They say one per day but if you live someplace normal, there are 4 Starbucks in a 5 mile radius. Just go to a different one to refill on any given day.

plus its a nice travel mug. My daughter gets them for us every year. Are hard to find as they don't make a lot of them

Do they sell those at all the stores? That's a cool gift.

I'll check next year. I'm not a Starbucks guy, but several are in the family. That's a great way to start the year. Really like that gift.

^Good stuff, thanks for updating.

Mine's pretty similar: 66% England, Wales & Northwestern Europe, 30% Ireland & Scotland, 4% Sweden. Some differences from 23 and Me I did a few years ago , so not sure which is more accurate. I have been able to use the Ancestry DNA test to pick up more relatives than with 23 and Me.

We got one as well. I have not sent it yet. I'm expecting some Native American

One of my 2x great grandmothers was supposedly Native American (and looks like it in a photo) but that didn’t show up for me.

Someone said I could upload my ancestry results to Family Tree and they can analyze them. I’ll probably try that as well as 23 and Me.
