Starbucks, the world’s largest coffee chain, has introduced a $1 bottomless cup of coffee in its battle against an ever-growing band of imitators and cheaper competitors.

So far, the $1 (50p) cup of filter coffee is available only in a small number of branches in Seattle and the chain would only confirm that the concept was in a testing phase. For $1, the customer gets an 8oz cup of drip coffee which can be refilled as often as he likes.

Let's hope this deal moves beyond the testing phase!
