Okay I just have to tell you this…
I got Hubby the Tassimo for Christmas… I’m not a coffee person at all.. and then I saw that the little coffee cups are $10 for 16 cups of coffee…. Okay I’m thinking, are they out of their mind? I’m the frugal shopper, the cheap skage, I will never ever spend $10 for the 16 cups I can get out of; I can buy hubby a pound of coffee with coupons and sale for like $2-$3 bucks…Ā Well….
The machine came and mhh.. I have to admit I’m hooked… I have been drinking one HUGE Starbucks Cappuccino every day and some days twice a day ( sh… don’t tell hubby…) .. So why did I change my mind? Okay the coffee is awesome, and then the little disk doesn’t just make 1 cup of coffee, I fill up my huge I guess 32 oz cup and that is perfect, so then I started to think. If I get the same size at Starbucks, it would have been what, $3+ per coffee.. so if I make that the 16 times that I get in the pack it would be $48 that I spend at Starbucks for them to make the same coffee I can make at home.. so in the end I spend $.65 for the same large cup of coffee.. Now that sounds a lot better, doesn’t it??
So after all, if you are still thinking about this Coffee maker, think again and it will be a lot cheaper in the end than the Starbucks run’s every day…
So I know you want one, I went and found another deal for you guys
Go to Tassimo Direct order your Coffee maker, color of choice for $99.95 and that includes 2 (!) packs of coffee or tea of your choice and FREE Shipping; That’s a saving of over $50.00!!!
Update:
Here is a pic of me and my new addiction…. that way you know I wasn’t just telling you a story š The cup that’s one of those reusable HUGE cups.. LOVE it…

I was like you and I only got the Tassimo cause hubby wanted it ( actually he’s like a kid, wants everything)…. but I’m really hooked now… I got the Starbucks Espresso Cappuccino… mhhh just finished my 3rd cup today… what is wrong with me?? I really don’t like coffee… maybe I hit that age where now you are grown up and have to drink it??? You will enjoy it…Happy New Year ….

Danyell; I got Clint the one from Amazon here http://twoboysonegirlandacrazymom.com/?p=7101 I guess it’s the smalls and cheapest one.. the deal is I think over on Amazon, but that’s the one I got him. So the deal here is pretty much the most current deal I could find. Would love to have coffee… mine is ready, too š I will drink you out of house and home..hahaha…I just finished my 3rd jumbo cup today… good thing I will be back to work tomorrow and won’t have access to the machine…lol
Danyel says

Shash says
I love mine! I’m the only coffee drinker in the house and so it makes perfect sense. I can have a hot, fresh cup of Joe whenever I want. No more making a giant pot and nuking it over and over and over again all day long! š

Shash… glad I found someone else who loves it… š yup that was another reason hubby wanted one, since “no one” ( till now..haha) drank and he didn’t wanted to make a full pot just for him…lol…
Mo says
