We live on the lake for five months and then live on the ocean in Florida for seven months, but last winter down here someone told me about a place in NH to buy K cups. Sure enough, it was in Laconia, but it has since relocated to Franklin, NH. It's great. www.bigcatcoffee.com is the website. No tax and free shipping!

They do discounts for groups or places of employment... I wonder if we could get a winni dot com discount with them... My workplace gets a 10% discount with them and I'd wager we'd have more buyers from this site...

Caffeine is a food group, in my book.

By the way - "like" them on Facebook, if you're on Facebook, that is...

Use the promo code 'BOOBOOCAT' to get 10% of all Purr-fect packs from now until Halloween!

Don't know if you have a Kohls near you, but we get a box of 18 for $7.99 with coupons.

Did you know that k-cups can be re-used for a second cup of coffee. Just use it a second time......it's a little bit weaker but still not too bad.....plus you can go dig them out of the trash and just imagine yourself as a homeless person with no money....hold onto that thought and the weaker second cup freebie tastes pretty good....go for it!

Speaking of machines, what do people recommend? The brands I've seen are Keurig, Tassimo, Senseo, and Dolce Gusto.

Default Keurig

I have a Keurig at home at work and one at our camp and they all work fantastic. All were purchased at Sam's Club for I think $139.00. You can make three different size cups of coffee. The one at work gets used constantly during the day every day except weekends and we have never had an issue. They make great, always fresh coffee, are extremely convenient and keep our kitchen area much cleaner than with a normal coffee maker. You won't go wrong with a Keurig!

My wife is a coupon queen. I asked her if she knew a good place to get K-cups. She said...

"They don't make them that big."

I have my family bring them up from MA when they come. I have a spot that only sells K-Cups and they sell them for $12.75 for regular types of coffee and 12.99 for all the different specialty flavors. This price was good 3 weeks ago as that was the last purchase.

Default Bj's

If anyone is in the market to by a Kurig, go to BJ's for the best deal. I got the Kurig, plus 60 assorted K cups and one of those reusable fill with your own coffee cups all for $139.00. I've seen the same Kurig I got all by itself with no add ons going for 149 at stores.

The refillable cups are ok, but you get some grinds in there and just not quite as good. I love the Dunkin K cups, but so much $$$!

Down here in Mass there is a place called Coffee King that has free shipping on orders over $60. http://www.coffeeking.com/
Prices seem pretty reasonable and a decent variety of coffees. BJ's seems to be limited stock and you have to buy 96 at a time. I like to change it up and try new ones.

Someone mentioned Kohl's on here in an earlier post... that's also the best place to get a machine...

The one we bought last year (Keurig B60 Special Edition) is on sale now at $149. If you have 30% off coupon, that makes it $105. We got ours with a special promotion that included 60 K-Cups but we found that there was decaf, cocoa, teas, etc., in with that 60 pod pack, so there was some stuff we really didn't want.

Incidentally, that same box of 60 K-Cups that was in that promotion was recently on sale at Christmas Tree Shop in Portsmouth for $29.

So, Kohls also has a 15% off coupon you can use once a year. We brought the cost of our Keurig down to $90 - not bad.

Hi GBG;

This is the one I have... http://www.samsclub.com/sams/shop/pr...103&navAction=

I paid $129.00 for it which includes an accessory kit and 36 K-Cups. All three machines are still going strong and the one I bought for work gets used continuously 5 days a week!

Happy Thanksgiving!

In the summer this is where we get ours and also when we take day trips in the winter we always stop by and pick up a bag... great price and great selection.

Default K Cups

I went to BJ's yesterday for a box of K cups. They had a new brand San Francisco Bay Rainforest Blend, organic Arabic. The price for a box of 80 was $27.99. I bought two boxes, one for spare, because 80 do not last a month for me. So far I've had 3 cups and am very satisfied with them.

This works out to $0.35/cup.

Default ...

Refilling a used k-cup with teaspoons of Great Value Classic Roast, 11.3 oz/$2.95, honestly makes a very, very, very good cup of coffee, plus it costs a lot less! ...no fooling around here! All it requires is a small piece of aluminum foil to replace the top of the reused k-cup. Too good ...

Reusng the same k-cup eight different times is my personal record..........wow!


Or, for about $8.95, you can purchase a Black & Decker "One Shot" coffee maker that comes with a reusable filter mesh screen that will make the same coffee as the hundred dollar Kuerig, and you never-ever need to re-use a k-cup.

Post Wait until the fall

If you wait untill the fall, Green Mountain Coffee Roaster's patents are going to expire and everyone will be selling K Cups without having to pay the royalty to GMCR. The expectation is that the prices will drop significantly.

GMCR is now selling a system called Vue that allows you to brew different size cups, different strengths etc. It is also recyclable...however, this technology will likely stay at a premium for a while.

Default K-Cups

"The Store" in downtown Tilton has K-cups for 12.99 for a 24 count box. Several different brands, if they don't have what you are looking for they will get it! If you are heading towards Franklin, its on the right just after the railroad tracks at the only set of lights in downtown Tilton.

I used to use BigCat when they were in Laconia. Free Pick Up was great. They do charge for shipping on all orders less than $75.

Right now they have the 24 box of Green Mountain for $13.75. Good price, but you can get them at Airport Deli for $14.95 and they do have a terrific assortment. Since Big Cat moved to Franklin, it's a pain to drive all that way to save 1.20 a box, unless you're going to buy $75.00, which would work out to more than 5 boxes.

Now a cheaper Free Freight deal for Winnipesaukee.com members would be a winner!

Where is the Airport Country Store and Deli located ?
I am assuming somewhere near Laconia Airport.

A quick Google search shows it to be somewher behind the Cinema 8. Doesn't seem like it should be to hard to locate.

I get my K cups at BJ's in Tilton. We are members and do our bulk shopping there. They only carry a couple blends and do switch from time to time I used to pay $34, but a week ago I paid $39 and change for a box of 80 Fair Trade.

Default Reusable K-Cup

Why not use one of these...

http://www.amazon.com/Keurig-K-Cup-R...ob_gro_title_2

Fill it with your favorite ground coffee, rinse, re-use.

It works great.

It is the Citgo station right across the street from Agway or the first building on your left heading towards Gator Signs.

Intersection of Rt11 and Rt 11c. You turn in at the same traffic light as the Cinema. Its right on Rt 11 across from the airport road.
