I recently obtained a Keurig. I know, I know, it's 2013 and I'm JUST NOW jumping on the single serve coffee bandwagon. I'm the only coffee drinker in my house, so you'd think it would make sense to have a Keurig, but I never bought one because I didn't want to spend that kind of money on myself. Anyway, thanks to the magic of the Facebook yard sale site, I was able to get one for free. It's nothing fancy - just the Keurig mini, but it works. The person that gave it away said it didn't work, but after descaling it was absolutely fine.
Anyway, onto the DEAL portion of the post.
Right now it's November and Keurig users are probably not thinking about their summer time favorites, but if you head to your local grocery store you can probably score a deal on the iced tea line of Keurig products. I just got back from Market Basket (it's a New England thing for those that aren't in the know) and they had their Snapple iced teas marked down to $2.99 a box. They are normally $6.97 in the summer, then they go on sale for $4.99 towards the end of summer/early fall and now they are $2.99. Will they go lower? Maybe, but I'm sure it helps that we're in the beginning of winter and the stores are looking at about 6 months or more of no iced tea sales.
I plan to grab a box a week as long as they are on sale to keep myself well stocked for the summer months. Then, in the summer I'll look into chai tea, hot cocoa and hot cider. Hopefully with a little planning I can keep the Keurig in the convenience category rather than the expense category. For regular coffee, I plan to get a couple of those refillable cups to use on a regular basis. Maybe Santa will tuck one under the tree for me. ;-)
