K-Cup coffee pods
 

A new toy arrived in our kitchen recently... called a Keurig K-Cub coffee maker in case you didn't get it. Where are K-cup users getting the best price for the coffee pods?

We find Sam's has the best price. Find a type/flavor you like then go to Sam's and buy it by the case.

K Cups
 

I order mine on-line from Green Mountain Coffee. Lots of variety and if you order 4 boxes of 24 there is no shipping charge. Can set up auto delivery and change as needed. Love my Kuerig !

We get ours at Bed, Bath & Beyond.... Gotta love the Jamaica Me Crazy! :icon_wink:

K - cups
 

You can get it mail order from coffeeforless.com with free shipping for orders over $50.

Wide selection of products other than coffee.

Worth a look.

I had been using COFFEECOW.com and buying the 24 packs. But recently the price increased to $13.99 per 24. It used to be $11.99. Need to find a better source in the future.

It's amazing to me the huge price difference in the same boxes! At Kohls the 18 pack was $17.99 and I got the same thing at Publix for like $8.69! Most places are around $10.00 per 18. Once you " pick your favorite flavor" you have a pretty good selection at SAMs by the case. I think Bed Bath and Beyond is usually about $12.00 per 18. I am always on the lookout for sales to get varieties not available by the case. Be sure to try Chai Tea Latte for these cold evenings!

Amazon's prices are pretty good, and Sam's club with the limits being what they stock. Bealls sells them for a reasonable price. I was in Home Good's recently and they had a bunch of varieties of 18 cups for $9.99. Best price I've seen retail yet.

The "single cup" concept is an expensive way to buy coffee, IMO.

We are paying for convenience.

I don't even think it's very convenient. I want more than one cup of coffee in the morning and when I have guests. It's just a way to market exotic flavors of coffee at a high price.

The least expensive route is a K cup adapter that allows you to use any coffee or tea bag. You definitely pay a premium to use ready made K cups but with an adapter it is equal in cost to traditional coffee makers.

My wife and I are primarily espresso drinkers and we love our Francis Francis espresso machine, EXCEPT that it is not particularly convenient (have to clean out the stainless steel filter after every two shots of espresso and reload the coffee each time which sometimes gets messy).

We have been considering getting one of the Keurigs, but I have not been able to find out if these machines make espresso shots. Does anyone know if you can make espresso shots with these machines? If so, is it done by just regulating the amount of water that the machine serves per cup?

Thanks for any advice!

Green Mountain makes an espresso variety in the Keurig single cups. I saw it for the first time in the store this morning.

Haven't tried it, just saw that it is available.

k-cups
 

Sam's & BJ's have the Green Mountain K-Cups for $39.95 for a box of 80.
Using the K-Cups, the coffee is perfect, every cup. At 50 cents a cup, it is well worth the cost for me and a lot cheaper than Starbucks!!

Life is to short to drink cheap tasting coffee!!

No espresso shots that I'm aware of for the Keurig or Cuisinart machines....if you like espresso...the K-cups may not be for you but here's a link that might be helpful to you:
