Ha! Lego really is the answer to the world's important engineering problems.

Now, can it help us get around the DRM on these K-cups?

I drink too much coffee and I'd be broke if I exclusively used a Keurig.

It's not cheap, but it is cheaper than a daily Starbucks habit. I buy the knockoff k-cups at BJ's for about $.30/cup.

I'd do a standard brewer but I'm the only coffee drinker in the house and lazy to boot.

They sell reusable K-cups for $15 which you can fill up with coffee of your choice. So, if you can stomach Folgers and willing to buy one of those huge tin cans, you can bring the cost per cup way way down.

I stock up whenever local grocery stores have the Kcups for $.35 / cup (or lower) specials

Is it Kcupvesting now? ;-)

 

Never understood how people can go so crazy about those.

Personally I am strongly against that waste of plastic they produce.

My favorite is Chock Full O Nuts, but I do buy up plenty of Dunkin Donuts brand if KMart is having a good sale and I can use coupons/points.  I just use a 12 cup maker and it's easy enough.

I'm a Dunkin fan as well.

I found this brand to have the best coffeee in terms of flavors and smells. Even their decaf smells better than most coffee. From time to time I break my $.35/cup rule to buy these

To rich for my blood, LOL.

Yes, I am cheap and own a Keurig. At least I'm a well caffeinated contradiction.
