    Hey Geri, I like the way you think! I never thought of trying these ideas but will definitely do so now!

    I am a purist. I do not want anything in my coffee except coffee. I like the different strengths and the different roasts, but no flavoring for me.

    Default Kuerig coffee maker

    Love my Keurig; have had it for a couple years. It's a commercial one. I buy my k-cups from Sams and a box of 80 is 39.97 (approx.) and that's about 49-50 cents a piece. I can live with that. I buy Green Mountain in the Breakfast Blend flavor. Then all I want is 1/2 and 1/2 (usually f/free). Sooooo good. Will buy another if/when this one goes out.

    Kuerigs don't last long, but if you buy them from Bed Bath & Beyond they will replace them every time. I have returned several.

    A Hint if you Kuerig does not want to work for you... This happened to us just a week ago (same day the water heater went out -- the Kuerig was more upsetting -- I googled Kuerig not working the answer was take off all loose parts, go to your sink turn coffee maker upside down and "spank the bottom" put parts back on plug. Yes it work. And still going knock on wood. If yours stops work give this trick a try.

    I was the same until my DD turned me on to the girl scout thin mint coffee creamer. It is so good. I love Kona coffee and grind my own beans. It is all I use.

    Replying to Cash's Mom, call Kuerig customer service. Your machine was fairly new and when I had the same thing happen Kuerig sent me a new one. Also sign up for their emails. Very often they have sales and special deals. A good company with a good product.

    I love my Keurig! When we lived on the farm (well water) I had to descale often (with vinegar), and the head clogged often - had to poke a straightened-out paper clip up into where the heated water bursts out. When we moved to town, and using the filtered water from the fridge, I have not yet had to descale, and have had no clogs!

    We have some go-to flavours but also enjoy the specialty flavours, as well as apple cider and tea.

    I found the cups that you fill with your own grind, didn't clean out and didn't taste as nice. But I didn't experiment with different grinds either.
