Any Keurig owners out there?

So I made the complete mistake of ordering 2 Keirugs for my folks for Christmas! :o Looks like we'll be keeping one. Actually will work out well since the wife and I are drinking less coffee and at very different times (I'm an early riser).
Anyway, anyone have a flavor recommendation or know places that often have K cups on sale? Wife uses them at work so she's pretty familiar with the flavors. I'm mainly a black coffee drinker, whole bean from Whole Foods that I grind at home. Like the occasional flavored stuff, but usually just something solid, not too dark of a roast.
 
My wife and I have one. I'm not a coffee drinker but I use it to make hot chocolate and apple cider. :)

If you have a coffee you already like you buy the kcup thing so you can use your own coffee.

I have a few of these machines, but I grind my own beans and I use a Solofill cup that I get on Amazon or Bed Bath & Beyond and it works great for my coffee as I really hate the colored water that the Keurig MyK Cup generates.
 
I have one and its great! We use the adapter and put our own coffee in it (never use the kcup things) and the amount per cup we want. Works great!
 
Hmm, I guess I am just lazy, but we get k-cups from Keurig.com. I like the Donut Shop flavor myself. Haven't really found anything else that fits my tastes. I am now a Platinum member, so get 15% off per box, plus points that we use for half-price filters, and maybe eventually, a half price coffee maker when this one runs out.
 
I am a fan of the Donut Shop and Donut House, Newman's Own isn't bad either.

I haven't been able to get the reusables to work for me and I have tried a couple of brands including the Keurig, the coffee comes out weak every time.
 
Thanks, guys. Had the Donut Shop one this morning as part of the sample 12 pack we got. Pretty good stuff. We were going to hit up Bed Bath and Beyond today but with Black Friday madness, it wasn't worth it. Hopefully get back in there tomorrow.

Donut House is my favorite!

Donut House Light Roast Coffee K-Cup Packs - 80 ct. - Sam's Club

I have a Kuerig in my office and at home =D

As mentioned, Costco has GREAT prices on K-Cups.
 
I have one as well. My wife and I mainly just drink Starbucks though. Donut Shop is pretty good though if there is no Starbucks to be had however. ;)
 
Trying Green Mountain Breakfast Blend this morning.
We don't have a Costco membership and I think the closest one is a ways away out in the dreaded suburbs. ;)
Anti, I don't recall seeing something about that but I'll look through the paperwork it came with again to double check.

Trooper,

Thank you for plugging Starbucks as I was going to be shameless and plug it myself. ;)

Seriously, get Starbucks branded K-Cups. Best coffee in my humble and biased opinion.

No worries jamar,

It really is good. Though today my wife just bought some other brand. Not sure what just yet. Will let you know after I try it tomorrow morning yikes!
 
Oddly enough, I always find boxes a couple bucks cheaper at TJ Max. And I really like the hazelnut iced coffee. I'd imagine you could use it hot too and it'd be pretty good, but I like it with a random creamer and half a cup of ice. Better than Starbucks and I can get a box for 8 bucks at TJ. Haven't really looked online much, but I'm sure there are some good deals somewhere.
 
Thanks for the tip, Andrew. We have a Marshalls down the street that has a decent food selection. I'll check it out. :)
Having Caribou this morning.
 
I am having the Donut Shop packaged by our local grocery chain right now and it is pretty good. My fellow Texans should know HEB quite well. Now if they would just offer their Kenyan!
 
Quick update.
Rev is awesome! Not sure if it's the extra caffeine or not buy I really like it.
Decided to get a box of Jet Fuel (hey, I'm a sucker for the name). It's terrible!
I have a cold right now so my palate isn't really up to snuff but this just tastes like dirty brown water. Do not recommend. :banghead:
 
I just made my order, and added a sample pack of revv to give it a try. They finally have donut shop boxes in stock too. Good day for me :)
 
I didn't see any Donut Shop at BBB. I'll pop in again today and get something (Anything!) else.
The Rev is a pretty dark roast, but not bitter or anything. Actually some great flavor. :)
 
Yeah I go direct from keurig.com. Came out to $13 for a box of 24, with my platinum discount and extra dollar off sale they are doing.
