We have a Keurig in the office. Not the best coffee, but oh-so-convenient! On # 3 today... I hate to sound like the title under my user name, but I can't believe people pay for these things. We have one here too at the office. The other day I was waiting for a prescription to get filled at Wal-mart and can imagine paying $100 plus dollars for a coffee maker. How bad is it that people can't just scoop some grounds in a filter and dump the water in? Besides the Folgers for these things are twice the price and half the product. And then to top it all off (as if I am not taking something so unimportant to seriously right now) you can't even make you a strong cup of coffee, since the portion is predetermined! Arrrggghhh!!!! As for caffeine intake today, I've been drinking Royal Crown Cola. |

Yeah, it's silly. I can't justify the cost for my personal use, but if it's provided for me at no charge, I won't complain. It's a poor value overall. It would be one thing if it made precise, perfect good coffee every time in its self-contained system, but it doesn't! It's not all that good. It's just easy and convenient, and it is kind of amazing that so many people will pay such a premium for that.

We have one here as well. I get the wonderful job of keeping up with office supplies and what not, so I order via a catalog or online and the vendor's site and turn it into our purchasing for approval so I see the costs of the coffee. I just can't believe whoever bought the machine before I started this job got it approved. Hello, $30 Mr Coffee from Walmart?  |

Oh yeah, it's insane. We've gone through many iterations of coffee supplies over the years. While we have the Keurig in our area, the general supply is this massive contraption that has a direct water line into it and fills these huge thermoses, and they brew packets of various other coffee. I'm just happy my office doesn't serve the big red tub of stale Folgers.

Err..umm...I guess it's fine if..umm..you don't let it get...stale? They specifically would keep it until it got all old and nasty.

Pardon me but I haven't said the word banana in a few days and I thought this would be the proper place to at least write the word. Carry on

A PSA for the banana-phobic....  The more you know...don't be a banana hater, it's just self-loathing. Embrace your inner banana! -M |
