K-cups

[nboicepardee]

Good Morning everyone!
My fabulous husband got me a Keurig coffee maker for Mother's Day. It might be the best gift I have ever received! As a major budgeter, I have trouble spending that much on coffee, but I love it so much, I don't care! Can anyone point me in the direction of the best place to buy the most reasonable k-cups? Thank you!
Natalie

I found them cheapest at BJ's but they do not carry a good selection.

Check out amazon.com they carry a lot and the prices don't seem too bad to me

Costco has a good price on a huge box. DH's parents give him that for Christmas every year.

Have you tried the My K-Cup? You can fill it with any coffee you like and it brews just like the individual K-Cups. Yes, there is the added "hassle" of filling the My K-Cup, but it saves a lot of money in the long run. We use it because I only drink decaf and DH drinks regular.

Bed bath and beyond has a good selection. They are $9.99, then you can use a 20% off coupon.

Also if you go online and register your machine, you can get 2 boxes free and free shipping. I ended up getting 4 boxes of 24 for $26 shipped!

Great tips! Thank you! Has anyone done any clubs? I once heard a woman talking about it at BJ's, but it was before I had my machine so I didn't ask any questions.

I have good luck at Target and Kohls.

There's a long Keurig lover's thread in the DISUnplugged forum here - everyone posts deals they have seen on K-Cups. If you register your machine with Keurig, they have a buy 2, get 2 free offer, so don't miss that - that's a very good deal.

Here's some other discounted ideas:
I also got a referral code from someone on that thread for Big Cat Coffee (haven't use it yet), signed up for BB&B account and they sent a 20% off certificate which I used for K-Cups. CoffeeWiz is another website with lots of deals, and lastly Amazon often has good deals in their Grocery section - under Manager's Specials.

On average, the best price we've been getting is still about $.42-.43/K-Cup with the exception of B1G1 type offers.

We started using each K-Cup 2x and generally that works out fine - but we normally use the Bold type coffees. That didn't work so well with a regular coffee - I thought it tasted like coffee-flavored tea!

Have you registered your Keurig at Keurig online and taken advantage of the buy 2 boxes get 2 boxes free with free shipping to boot? It works out to $25.11 for 96 K-Cups.

I like the Green Mountain Coffee Cafe Express Coffee Club. You are set up on a auto shipment that you control length of time between shipments and what coffee you get each time. Very easy to use and with the discount the boxes are a little over $10 each. Plus they are the larger 24 cup boxes.

Kohls often has them on sale for $9.99-$10.99 a box, then use the extra 30% off coupon. That's the lowest I've ever found them!

I also use Green Mountain coffee website. I like that you can change your flavors and the amount of time in between each order. I drink more coffee in the winter so my shipments come more often. But now that summer is here I will be drinking less coffee but more ice tea which me coffee maker makes. If you order 4 or more boxes you receive free shipping.

I recently bought them at Kohl's also with a sale and coupon. I bought the reusable cup and it leaked. I tried less coffee and it still leaked. I haven't had time to call them about it. ANy ideas of what I am doing wrong?

I use Coffeewhiz.com go to www.singleservecoffee.com they have some links.

I also buy from greenmountaincoffee.com. Not only do they have good prices if you join their coffee club, they have wonderful customer service.

We do that too, but because DH loves his bold, and I like mine as coffee flavored tea so it works great for us! He gets the first cup and then I get the 2nd.

I read here that Amazon has some sort of a club for auto sending them that is pretty flexible. We are still going through what we bought initially so I haven't looked into it too closely. I need to do that though because we are running out.

Instead of a reusable cup, I purchased a K-cap (google it to see one). You can reuse any K-cup (up to 10 times) by carefully removing the foil top, rinsing it out, allowing it to dry, refilling with your own coffee and putting on the K-cap. Works great!

 

[Bell30012]

I think refilling the K-cups and the reusable cup kind of kill the convenience of the Keurig coffee maker. Just my opinion but now I'm up to three of these wonderful machines and I eagerly await the UPS man with my next coffee shipment.

Amazon and as subscribe and save. I've found that they have the largest variety. Plus it's easy.

Thanks for the tip. I will have to look into it. Yes, I do think using the reusable filter defeats the purpose, but I have a fair amount of coffee left over and didn't want to just through it out when I got the new machine.

I also use the K-Cap, it really works. As far as the reusable filter defeating the purpose, we are such big coffee drinkers that it's the only thing that makes sense for us. Dh and I drink 10-15 cups of coffee every morning, so the reusable option is best for us. Besides, we have our favorite Ethiopian coffee that we MUST have.

I do keep a large quantity of k-cups on hand for when we have friends over.
