My Keurig is dead / myLot

I'm not a huge coffee drinker but sometimes I like a nice warm mug of it before I go to work or on a weekend morning with breakfast. When I moved I left the Keurig for my ex-husband because he does drink coffee every work morning and sometimes on weekends. Way more than I ever do. I figured I could just stop at Dunkin on my way to work if I wanted some coffee. When I moved I had a ton of help from family and friends. My mother's best friend brought me her Keurig because she said that she never used it. I appreciated that and was happy to have it just to be able to save some money on coffee drinks. That was 7 months ago. I've tried to make a cup of coffee twice in the past in the past week and no water ever came out through the spout thing. None. Frustrating but not a huge deal because, like I said, I'm not a big coffee drinker. Still I will probably wind up buying a new Keurig in the new year. I will save money by making my coffee here at the apartment.

A few years ago, my husband bought me a Keurig as I was in the mood to drink more coffee. It still works well, even though I don't drink coffee as much. I will still enjoy a cup every now and then.

We got our first Keurig last Christmas. I wasn't much of a coffee drinker in the past. I drink it more now that I'm trying to lose weight.

I suppose this Keurig is a branded coffee machine in the US, am I right? I think I have to check how it looks like.

@NJChicaa You are right you save on making your own coffee. Since I do not know what a Keurig is I will ask is it a coffee pot or coffee machine?

I only drink one cup a day. I drink decaf instant. It's good enough for as much as I drink coffee.

Yes, using a Keurig is a good money saver. One of those items which will pay for itself in savings over time

Well, that stinks. Not a huge fan of the Keurig K-Cup thing. Way too expensive. But I do get it that some people only drink a small amount of coffee and only occasionally and so maybe it works out. I still like to just make a full pot. But I drink a lot of coffee so it makes sense. I am actually thinking about getting one of those K-Duo pots since my wife does like something different occasionally and so she might like to be able to just make a single cup of something. And when company comes over we can offer more choices too. I am being suckered in. Ugh,

I love the Keurig but it works for me because I don't drink a lot of coffee. a 50 cent K-cup is cheaper than a $4 large cold brew at Dunkin.

@porwest I only need 1 cup but I'm bad when I go to Dunkin and I get a large cold brew. I should just get a medium hot coffee. That is a lot cheaper. Still. . . I don't do it that often.

@NJChicaa I always say a can of coffee is considerably cheaper compared. But that's just me. That being said, if one is throwing coffee away...that's more expensive than anything.

My Keurig went on the blink a few months back. It is stuck in the ON position and I cant restart it. I unplugged it many times but when I plug it back in it is still ON.
