    new love of my life (picts)


    I love her. She's one of the first things I see in the morning, and I run to her when I get home from a long day.

    I'm too much of a cheap ass to buy one and the coffee that goes with it, but we had one in the Hotel room when we were in San Diego recently and thought it was great.

    make sure you run filtered or bottled water through it, straight tap water will clog it up over time, i use the insert with the little gold colored filter in it and regular ground coffee, those k cups were breaking the bank

    Distilled water on for my girl. She's expensive alright. Hopefully its a lasting relationship, not a few week fling. I enjoy the various k cups.

    i love them every time i am at someones house ,hat has one, and my old company had one for us to use, but i drink way too much coffee to make it worth while. i make a pot and it is gone before the burner turns off. i jus tgo with the cheap ones on sale at wallyworld, you can get them for $9 and at that price i dont feel bad cutting the cord and throwing it in the shred pile when it stops working.

    Nice! You got the fancy one too! I got mine for Valentines day as a gift from my wife and I cannot live without it. I even take it on vacation with us! I get my K-cups from BJ's. Its like 39.00 for 80 of them. Works out to 50 cents a cup. Sounds like a lot, but I used to brew a whole pot for 1-2 cups. Still cant beat the aroma and taste of stove top perculated, coffee in my book. Enjoy it!

    I have one of those as well.

    It's nice to have a cup of coffee brewed and ready to go in literally under a minute.

    Who needs a pot anyway when everyone in the house just wants a cup of coffee, you gotta brew it, pour it, half the time there's wasted coffee left in the pot, then clean it, get it ready for the next batch... with Keurigs, pop a k-cup in there and hit the button, shazam 30 seconds later you have a cup of coffee and no cleanup.

    Have yet to find a reason to justify using one of these. I prefer the pot of coffee. I only drink black coffee and usually a pot of coffee in the morning. So for a $20.00 coffee machine and once a month, $1.98 per can of grounds... I'm happy.

    My last relationship was 3 years, bear. We got along great. I noticed something wrong. She was a little high maintenance, but I didn't mind. I took care of her she provided me with a lot if cups of coffee. She started whining and just kind of quit on me.

    This one she's different, I think I'm in it for the long haul. I look forward to a future and lots of k cups.

    That's gotta be nasty, only 1.98 for a whole can of "coffee"??

    Cocoa flavored wood shavings maybe for a $1.98. Two things I can't stand buying cheap on. Beer and coffee.

    Bear, I bought her and I think her sisters come from China. From what I understand you can by them and have them delivered... Right to your door.
