SEATTLE The Tully’s Coffee chain said it is selling all sizes of its seasonal Pumpkin Spice Latte drink for $2.99 through Nov. 4 at its 170 U.S. locations.

The $2.99 price represents a discount of between 7 percent and 29 percent, depending on the size ordered.

"Pumpkin Spice Lattes are a fall favorite at Tully's, and this year we wanted to add even more value to this exciting promotion," said Carl Pennington, chief executive and president of Tully's parent TC Global Inc. of Seattle.

The featured lattes are regularly priced at $3.20, $3.80 and $4.20 for the tall, grande and veinte sizes, respectively, a representative of the chain said.

TC Global, for the quarter ended in June, reported an 8.4-percent dip in same-store sales at its 79 company operated Tully's locations, compared with a 0.4-percent decrease in the same period a year earlier.
