rampant consumerism question of the day

[rmd]

so, aside from being wasteful because single serving extra packaging etc, any opinions on k-cup type keurig coffee pod systems? someone i know who lives alone and has started drinking more coffee is potentially interested. and the single-servingness appeals, as does the variety of available flavors and such.

also, where are k-cup pods available for retail purchase? or is it all mail-order?

we love our Keurig, best present i ever got Mark. I chose that kind of single serve over the others(tassimo, etc)because of the incredible variety There are at least 7 companies making kcups,which can bought from Amazon(we do this because we get free shipping),other online,Costco,our local grocery store. feste_sylvain has 2 regular and 2 decaf, one dark and one medium of each. If you like your coffee really strong you get "extra bold" cups,which have more coffee in them.The girls love the teas and hot cocoa. I use it as a quick kettle. Costco has a good deal on the machine,which we got, comes with 90 cups of a wide variety, so even if it doesn't work out long term you get good value there.
