    I use the refillable K-cup filters in my machine, this way I can use any coffee I want. The cheap ones in the As-Seen-on-TV section in Walmart work great, the official Kuerig one suck

    I like the San Francisco Bay k-cups since they're mostly bio-degradable unlike the standard k-cups. Coffee is good, prices are good.

    I usually go with the French Roast or Rainforest blend.
    If you look around you can often find discount coupons.

    Walmart has them pretty cheap. I mostly buy them at the grocery store when they are on sale, but Bed Bath & Beyond has some okay prices, and Target. Or Amazon.

    I like the Folgers ones - mocha swirl, sugar cookie, vanilla biscotti, caramel swirl and hazelnut are my favorites.

    Those prices are a little higher than Amazon but I like that they have a bigger selection of sizes. Is it free shipping?

    I got them originally at Amazon, but when I signed up for their newsletter I'd get occasional 10-20% discount codes. Free shipping after $35.

    Oh and they're on some sort of campaign about Keurig trying to lock out other coffee vendors. They're giving a free clip to disable the lock-out mechanism on newer Keurig models.

    Buy a filter for $5 and make your own

    Buying K-Cups is like spending $50.00 per pound for coffee.

    True, but I don't like spending $14 on a pound of coffee without trying it first either. I wonder if I can get samples somewhere.

    In your coffee aisle, they probably sell one pot bags of coffee for a buck each.

    I stick with Starbucks medium roast, but when I drank the flavored stuff, I LOVED Millstone Hazelnut Cream and Donut Shop Nutty Caramel.

    I did the subscribe and save deal with Amazon - I can't remember the price though. It's automatic delivery every x months (you choose x), so you get a discount.

    Bed, Bath, and Beyond with their 20% off coupon.

    YESSS!!! Use their coupon and they have a HUGE variety!

    We got a Keurig a couple months ago for similar reason, my husband drinks decaf and I drink regular. We are astonished at how much more coffee we drink now and how much more expensive it is!

    I like the variety packs from Amazon, and recently have been getting the Grove Mountain Cappucinos (all different flavors). By themselves they are a little too sweet but I mix them half and half with a plain coffee and then I don't need creamer. It's about 80 cals for those Cappucinos and I was using flavored creamer that added up to about 100 cals when I was just drinking plain coffee.

    Running low on my Green Mountain kcups and I was wondering if you all have any recommendations? I like flavored coffee... Don't want to spend a lot, but I'm pretty picky (didn't like the Archer Farm stuff at all).

    Also, any tip to buy them cheap? I got a bunch at Kohls before Christmas but now it's much more expensive. I don't mind buying a bag and making my own kcups to make money, I just like variety so it's not that handy, but I'd totally do it for some really good coffee (we have the refillable kcups and they seem to work ok with my husband's coffee).

  • I buy mine online from the kuerig website. They almost always have a sale, and if you are willing to buy a dollar amount at a time free shipping. Best selection I've found at one place and watching for sales very good prices.
