I am always looking for current sales on k-cups so I thought I would start a thread here for me and others on RFD. Please post k-cup deals in this thread.
Costco Warehouse (on-going):
Selection is usually limited to two kinds and sells for $0.50 per k-cup.
futureshop.ca or at your local Future Shop (limited selection), regular price is $12.99 for 18 pack
Various sales throughout the year.

ECS Coffee Inc. (http://www.ecscoffee.com/) generally $15.75 for a Box of 24. Great selection, Shipping Free over $100.

All listed below are 18 count and on sale for $9.99 = 0.56 cents per k-cup

If you price match at Bed Bath and Beyond, then sign up for their mailing list you can get an additional 20% a single item. Makes it about $8 bux.
BTW I LIKE THE TIMOTHY'S KAHLUA.... Its not on the poll.

I just ordered a whole bunch of sample packs from Keurig.com, along with a couple of boxes of what I drink now (Donut Shop, Timothy's Breakfast, etc). In the future I might just order from singlecup.ca. I also picked up a couple of boxes from Sears, but paying $13 at Sears for 18 is not a great deal...
My Costco only has Van Houtte and not Timothy's. I prefer Timothy's.

Some flavor from Van Houtte are better and some other from Timothy's are better... The Hazelnut from Timothy's is just awful.. I bought 8 during futureshop mega discount :facepalm:... I'm currently drinking the last box THANK GOD!!!

Midnight Magic is the best of this poor selection IMO
I prefer stronger brews
Tully's French Roast is good too
I would add Newman's Own Organic Extra Bold if it were my poll-available in Costco USA in big boxes at less than 50 cents and very popular
My local Costco has a poor selection for Keurig but recently started carrying Starbucks Houseblend again at $7.50 for 12 Tassimo discs

I am sorry, but I could only fit 10 items for the poll. My Costco carries two kinds of Keurig and hence why it made my initial post. It would be interesting to find out from others what type of K-Cups are at their Costco across this country.
RCSS used to carry the 18 count boxes for $9.99 if you bought 2 boxes of Van Houtte k-cups but I see they recently switched to 12 count boxes for $9.99.
We like the Kenyan and house blend versions of Van Houtte k-cups and the Tomothy's Colombian Excellencia from Costco is quite good too. But our favorite K-Cup is Diedrich Columbia k-cups but it is very hard to find.

I agree, I think that Newman's own is my favourite and Coffee People's JET FUEL is a close second!

Another vote for Timothy's midnight magic (..sounds dirty lol)
Question for the k-cup connoisseurs; have you ever found grounds in your coffee or is my machine/k-cup batch defective? I've had 1 that had a sludge of grounds at the bottom of my cup and 2 other cups had some floating in it. At 50+ cents a cup it's really starting to tick me off. I've just had the brewer for a month or so...but this is 3 out of about 40 cups. This normal?

I bought the B77 from Costco USA and have had no issues with coffee grounds in the cup.
I will have to check out Safeway for the Van Houtte Coffees, especially if they are on sale.

I've had two bad boxes of Kenya in a row, both had 8 K-cups that spit grounds out faster than coffee. Wasn't a machine issue, i'm sure it's a packing issue. I was so P/O'd i've stopped buying Van Houtte all together.

Here's the link to Tweed and Hickory's page full of k-cups. Their prices range from the cheapest going from 0.63 (Timothy's, Van Houtte) cents per k-cup to much higher per unit price for the other brands. You will have to pay shipping costs.
http://tweedandhickory.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/page252.html
or a limited time, Tweed & Hickory is shipping all orders to Canadian residents at a flat rate of $9.99 CDN per order. This offer is available to Canadian residential addresses only. This offer is not available for addresses in Nunavut(NV) Northwest Territories (NWT) or the Yukon(YK).

If you are in the Ottawa area, there is a Tweed and Hickory in Kanata and another in Barrhaven. They carry all the k-cups available on the website. They also allow you to purchase any 24 k-cups for 15.99 so you can try multiple flavours (Barrhaven for sure). My favourite brand is the Coffee People Donut shop.

SingleCup.ca is free shipping over $54 and @ $16 for 24 that works out to $0.67 each. The FS deal is free shipping over $20 and @ $9.99 for 18 which works out to $0.56 each.
Locally in Regina, Ambassador Coffee (http://www.ambassadorcoffee.com/Downloads/K-Cup Menu (OCS).pdf) ranges from $16 - $18 for 24 K-cups. Buy 7 boxes at once you get one free. Buy 10 boxes over time and get one free. You can mix and match individual K-Cups at $18 for 24 (counts towards free box).

From last years Canadian Keurig K-Cup retailers (http://forums.redflagdeals.com/canadian-keurig-k-cup-retailers-808122/) thread I found this:
Java-U in Montreal are the Canadian distributors for Green Mountain Coffee k-cups. They carry ALL varieties that you see on Green Mountain's website, including Green Mountain, Newmans Own and I believe Caribou. Pricing is about $16 a box for 24 kcups.
You can order thru their head office for local delivery or pick-up; I did ask and they will ship across Canada; you will need to pay for shipping. For some reason, they do not sell these in their cafe's (but they should!).

Cafe Gran Sasso at 4830 Cote Vertu Ouest has a great selection and allows you to make mixed boxes. Timothys coffee is 13.75$ for 24 and the Green Mountain blends are 14.75$, A mixed box of 24 (any kind) is 14.75$.

Not normal. I've been drinking Keurig's brew for a few years now, both at home and at work, and I have yet to see grounds in my coffee.

I've had that happen with my mini Keurig machine a few times. I've had this machine for a while so it's not that big of a deal for me. The other machine (cuisinart one) we have hasn't done that and we've had that since summer.

Thanks for the tip! I passed by Cafe GranSasso this morning and loaded up. They have a very good selection, competetive prices and specials and let you make your own variety packs. They even offered me a coffe while I was shopping for my k-cups. Joe and Mary-Anne were great!

They are offering one free 12 oz bag of coffee with the Solofill right now. The coffee runs about $10 ($0.50 extra for ground) but the coupon gives you $11.95 off.

I've had our brewer for 3 years now, the stainless steel one. This happens sometimes and I was getting mad about it too. I took the plastic part out of the machine that actually holds the k-cup and cleaned it with hot water and put it back in, problem went away instantly.

The My K-Cup is long and you need to remove the internal K-Cup holder from the machine to use it. The Solofill is the size of a K-Cup so it's easier to use.

How is this different than My K-Cup from Keurig?Keurig makes their millions from selling 6 Billion+ k-cups a year, do you think they would invest a lot of time and money into a $15 reusable filter that they would make a profit from only one time? Not likely, but what they would do is create a solution to deflect from the amount of waste these things create, and make a mediocre cup of coffee that isn't as good or convenient as a k-cup. Ultimately forcing my k-cup buyers back into buying their over-priced pods.

FYI they offer a special grind geared towards getting the best tasting cup of coffee out of the solofill and a keurig brewer.

Multiple coupons can be used on the Reunion Island site. I asked for multiple Solofill + coffee coupons and they created them for me and I was able to enter each one. I bought 3 packages in total plus a flavor bottle to make it over $60 for free shipping.
Now will the $30 for $15 be able to be used? I don't know but they have great email support and if you're willing to risk it, buy the $30 for $15 and email them in the morning. They sell the BUNN machine and pods mainly.
Back to K-Cups, FS deal is ending on Dec. 24th, better stock up or use the price to PM another store.

Another place to check is the Home Outfitters clearance desk. On several occasions - I've been able to find a bunch of 18 pack cases of various flavors for $3 to $4 each. They were nearing the expiry date (about a month to go) and were selling for 2/3's off. I don't have a problem with using vacuum sealed coffee that might go a little over the expiry date...;)
I ended up buying 6 cases last time I was there for a about $20. It's a huge YMMV from store to store but it's worth checking it out next time you are in the store.

Cafe Gran Sasso at 4830 Cote Vertu Ouest has a great selection and allows you to make mixed boxes. Timothys coffee is 13.75$ for 24 and the Green Mountain blends are 14.75$, A mixed box of 24 (any kind) is 14.75$.
I stopped over there today. Cote Vertu, west of the 40, on the south side of the street. Met the owner, Joe. He never heard of RFD before, but I'm the 2nd or 3rd that stopped in.
Through this Thursday, Timothy's and Emeril K-Cups are 10% off. I bought 5 boxes (24's, not the 18's that FS carries) for $61.87, $0.5156/cup. The next sale will probably be in February. If you buy at regular price, you can get a card stamped, and the 10th box is half off. Cash only, no cards.
I used to buy from a place in Ontario, but I think it's a great price, and very convenient for those here in Montreal.

Locally in Regina, Ambassador Coffee (http://www.ambassadorcoffee.com/Downloads/K-Cup Menu (OCS).pdf) ranges from $16 - $18 for 24 K-cups. Buy 7 boxes at once you get one free. Buy 10 boxes over time and get one free. You can mix and match individual K-Cups at $18 for 24 (counts towards free box).
That works out to about 75 cents/pod which is high. I checked their web site. No sign of prices until on registers >:(
The east-end store has prices posted on the shelves. They range from $16 for Timothy's to $18 for higher end per 24 K-Cups.
@ $18 it is $0.75 per cup but you can mix and match to learn your favorite. Don't forget after 10 boxes you get 1 free.
If you bought 10 x $18 = $180 / 11 [10 + 1 free] = $16.36 / 24 K-Cups = $0.68 per K-Cup
If you bought an average of $17 over 10 boxes = $170 / 11 = $15.26 / 24 K-Cups = $0.64 per K-Cup
Compare that to regular priced K-Cups at retail stores:
$12.99 / 18 K-Cups = $0.72 per K-Cup
**Edit**
Ambassador Coffee Price List (All boxes of 24 unless marked)
-Buy 6 boxes at once and get 7th box free
-Buy 10 boxes over time (includes mix and match 24's) and get 11th free
$16.00 = All Timothy's
$16.75 = All Hot Chocolates
$17.00 = Imports (Green Mountain, GJ, Caribou, etc)
$18.00 = Any 24 Mix and Match individual K-Cups

Not a "hot deal" on the price but Timothy's at Square One in Mississauga, ON allows you to mix and match your own 24 ct box. So you can grab a sample of all of their flavors or roasts for the price of a single box. This is the only Timothy's in Mississauga that allows this as far as I know. It saves my wife and I from having to buy 2 boxes as she enjoys the Donut Shop and I prefer the Kona.
As for favorite K-cup of all time, seasonal Island Coconut from Green Mountain. I was a cafe express member for years which allowed me to purchase 24 ct boxes @ $12 US and free shipping if you bought 4 boxes but then they started charging $19 to ship to Canada regardless so it cooled down the deal considerably.....but man do I crave that Island Coconut now.

Here's the link to Tweed and Hickory's page full of k-cups. Their prices range from the cheapest going from 0.63 (Timothy's, Van Houtte) cents per k-cup to much higher per unit price for the other brands. You will have to pay shipping costs.
http://tweedandhickory.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/page252.html
or a limited time, Tweed & Hickory is shipping all orders to Canadian residents at a flat rate of $9.99 CDN per order. This offer is available to Canadian residential addresses only. This offer is not available for addresses in Nunavut(NV) Northwest Territories (NWT) or the Yukon(YK).
They have different promos you can apply if you buy certain amounts of K-cups:
http://www.tweedandhickory.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/couponcodes.html
But it also looks like they increased the price of their Donut shop to $16.50 for 24. I just bought 4 boxes of Donut shop from Singlecup.ca for $15.75 each (free shipping over $54).

I've had our brewer for 3 years now, the stainless steel one. This happens sometimes and I was getting mad about it too. I took the plastic part out of the machine that actually holds the k-cup and cleaned it with hot water and put it back in, problem went away instantly.

I know this is for K-Cups but some people still like their own coffee.
I just ordered the Solofill from Reunion Island Coffee. I have the My K-Cup but it's a pain removing the assembly to use it. I'll post a review after Christmas.
They are offering one free 12 oz bag of coffee with the Solofill right now. The coffee runs about $10 ($0.50 extra for ground) but the coupon gives you $11.95 off.

With the My K-Cup they say to use a courser grind and pull the grommet down a bit (tightens the seal) on the needle that punchers the K-Cup. Careful not to pull the grommet off.
I choose the "Solofill Ground" option with the free coffee and it looks like a course grind as well.

I go to ECS coffee (http://www.ecscoffee.com) in Burlington for my K-cups. Others I know have ordered from http://www.coffeewiz.com/Keurig from the US.
I'm a simple guy and I like the Timothy's Hazelnut... I haven't tried too many others but will try some of the fav suggestions in this thread for consideration.
Not to get OT or start a flame war, but most of my co-workers are such Tassimo fanboys and constantly bash the Keurig... I love my Keurig yet these guys constantly rip the Keurig for it's supposed "taste transferring" (brewing a cup and tasting the previous different brew from before), its inability to make lattes/cappuccinos, and the fact they have Starbucks (possibly not for too long). I always mention that I can brew using my own cofee grounds and the Keurig's selection is 10x better, but they don't seem to care for it. Drives me insane!

I'm not a coffee connoisseur and was hoping to be able to get a My K-Cup (or similar) and use some Tim Horton's or Starbucks coffee in it. Does anyone know if the grind (?) they use on Timmy's coffee would be ok to use with the My K-Cup? From what I can tell, it's a fine grind and the Keurig says to use coarse grind. Will this be an issue?

You can recycle k-cups.Sure if you scrape out the paper and coffee grinds and remove the foil. Even then you sould make sure your municipality accepts that specific number on the plastic cup, which is what anyone know? Otherwise just because you put it in the recycling bin doesn't make them recyclable.

Coffee is probably the most traded food commodity in the world. Not to mention that coffee isn't actually grown in Canada and so must be transported here.
Want a greener world? Stop drinking coffee, tea and stop eating chocolate. There's also a slew of other food items that are imported into the country.
If you're concerned about the plastic, plastic production accounts for about 3% of total oil usage. The other 97% is transportation related.

As suggested by someone on a Keurig forum, I tried inserting a 3/4" flat faucet washer in the lid of the thingy where the round indentation is, & it worked fine. No more leaking BUT the coffee was quite weak :( I only filled the filter 2/3 full (with dark roast coffee) as it doesn't work if full. I likely won't bother using it again.

After ordering, takes about 3-4 days for them to "process the order" then shipping takes about 3-5 days (Fedex).
If you have never ordered from Keurig before, that means you never registered your brewer? First timers can get 2 boxes for free, and if you buy 2 or more boxes, you get free shipping (4+ boxes) with your order. Note that boxes from keurig.com are in boxes of 24 vs 18 at retail stores.

There is a place in Pickering (just east of Toronto) that sells the individual flavours for .62 cents. Doesn't matter if you buy one or 20, same price. They had racks of different blends so for .62 cents each to make your own variety pack. So many flavours that I almost want to start drinking coffee! (machine was for the wife as a Christmas present)
It's located in a store that is called "Solid Wood Bed and Table" and is located at the South West corner of Plumber and Brock, first street south of the 401. Easy to see as they have a GIANT rocking chair out front, they have a sign on the door for Green Mountain Coffee.

Price shown at then end will be final price you pay. I'm not sure what they are doing, but I think they actually ship from within Canada (at least the last time I ordered). The $10 is a processing fee but something to do because they are a US company ...

While I'm not certain about the import duties for coffee, but at least regular coffee at the store does not have sales tax (even K-Cups). I wasn't charged anything extra when it arrived last time I ordered from the Keurig website.

We got the mini plus on sale at Sears during an hourly special they had for 79$ during 1st week of December. I ordered 4 packs from keurig.com (with my free 2 packs) on Dec 6 and it came to 28.70 USD with no shipping/duty as i guess it qualified for the free shipping although according to the website i should have been charged 9.99. It was shipped on Dec 14 from Keurig and arrived on Dec 20th--the tracking info wasn't updated until the package was physically at my door so between Dec14 and Dec 20 it showed via Fedex as still sitting in their warehouse; which was disconcerting. So for about 30 bucks Canadian and a couple weeks of waiting we got 92 k-cups (we ordered 2 GMC variety packs), pretty good.

I've had our machine for 3 years, the cheapest place I've found k-cups is costco @ 50 for $24.99 but selection sucks as people have noted. In Edmonton I have found that at the west end Costco they sell a Keurig brand dark columbian roast which is excellent (used to only sell a medium breakfast blend). At the Claireview location they were selling Timothys brand "Midnight Magic" which was my favorite until I tried the Columbian Dark roast.
I've noticed at Sobey's they are selling them in smaller packs of like 12 now, for $9.99, which is crap, they used to sell 18 packs which worked out cheaper per k-cup.
Superstore also has the smaller 12 packs for cheaper than Sobeys, forget how much, but it's the next best thing to Costco for retail.

No, the deal is in-store only. Remember though the boxes FS sells are 18 packs, ECS sells 24 packs. ECS online prices are pretty much the same as everyone else online in Canada. They offer free shipping on orders over $100. I used that once when I didn't have time to get out to Burlington and had my coffee 2 days after I ordered it.

24 for $15 or $15.50 comes out to about 62 to 64 cents.. 18 for $10 at FS comes out to 55 cents.. mind you the selection is much better at ecs...
does anyone know the expiration dates on the coffee when ordering from ecs? is it several months most of the time or 1-2 months like FS sometimes..

The address of this place is 1020 Brock Road south. I just went in there and picked up a few cases mixing and matching- they are 62 cents each or 15$ for a case of 24. Now i know this isn't as much as a bargain as some earlier postings, but for most regular consumers who are within a short drive to Pickering this is a great choice as at 62 cents each you are way chepaer than a regular retailer (except when on sale), there is a very good selection (beyond anything at a FS or Bed Bath Beyond) , and the ability to mix and match is cool and unique. The expiry dates were May-June 2011. They seemed to have a good selection from all the lines except Wolfgang Puck and Tully's. I picked up a mix of decafs (Caribou Sumatra, GMC Vermont, Newmans Special Blend, Coffee People Donut Shop, and Deidrich), the Konas (GMC, Coffee People, Timothys), the Donut Shops (GMC, Coffee People, Timothys), Coffee People Organic and Tiger (They had all the Coffee People except Tree Hugger) and a few flavored (Timothys Kalua and Irish Cream, GMC Hazlenut, Glorea Jean Swiss Choc almond). I have a lot to try over the next couple of weeks.
The area with the k-cups is pretty tight so it can get crowded with just a few people; while i was there for 10 mimutes it was pretty busy,

I pm'd Amazon.ca with FS for the Breville 30 K-Cup holder @ $21.71. (http://www.amazon.ca/Breville-30-K-Cups-Caroussel-BKC100/dp/B001EIOBSY/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1293754711&sr=8-6)

24 for $15 or $15.50 comes out to about 62 to 64 cents.. 18 for $10 at FS comes out to 55 cents.. mind you the selection is much better at ecs...
does anyone know the expiration dates on the coffee when ordering from ecs? is it several months most of the time or 1-2 months like FS sometimes..
As I said I take advantage of the buy 7 get 1 free in store offer. It works out to 55 cents a cup (7 x 14.99 plus 1 free = 104.93 for 8 boxes of 24 = 0.5465 cents). Ordering online does increase the per cup price though. However the selection offsets this IMO. Regarding the expiration dates, the place is very busy and stock turnover seems high for most popular flavours. You could always ask, they are on Facebook and Neil is always happy to answer any questions asked there.

After ordering, takes about 3-4 days for them to "process the order" then shipping takes about 3-5 days (Fedex).
If you have never ordered from Keurig before, that means you never registered your brewer? First timers can get 2 boxes for free, and if you buy 2 or more boxes, you get free shipping (4+ boxes) with your order. Note that boxes from keurig.com are in boxes of 24 vs 18 at retail stores.
Is this applicable for Breville brand Keurig machines as well? Dh bought me one for Christmas!

ok.. let's try this in regards to the tea .. anyone know where to buy loose leaf teas off the shelf? (not online) no fancy flavors, simple orange pekoe red rose or similar that I can use in my-k-cup
we tried dumping the tea from a tetly bag in and my wife said, although better than the kettle, had a bit of a bitter aftertaste. it'll do until I can get some red rose to try or until an online order arrives.

I agree that ECS is really good, but as of yesterday they have very little stock (No Jet Fuel as an example).
Personal Coffee in Oakville http://www.personalservicecoffee.ca/ has the same selections, they will do the 8 boxes for 7, and you can purchase one of those green shopping bags for 2.99 and get 10% off your current order and your future orders as long as you bring the bag. 8 boxes and the bag came to just shy of 100.00. Saving a bit vs. ECS, but as of yesterday much more selections in stock.

Until, Jan 6th, 2011... Future Shop has a promotion where you get 1 box free, when you purchase 3 boxes from them online or from the store.
Buy three K-Cups, get one FREE!
How to get this deal:
1. Add four K-Cup Coffee Portion Packs of any flavor of your choice to the cart. Huge selection of flavors available online here (http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/category/k-cup-portion-packs/kcups.aspx)
2. The lowest priced item will be free of charge
This amounts to an 18 k-cup box selling for $9.74 or $0.54 per k-cup. Free shipping over $20.
I am definitely going to order 4 boxes this time around but disappointed to see that Timothy's Kahlua Coffee and Van Houtte Eclipse Blend Extra Bold Roast Coffee are sold out online. No way to check to see if they are available at a store until Jan 7th. I am going to order the Van Houtte Kenya Dark Roast Coffee & Timothy's Midnight Magic Extra Bold Roast Coffee. I need two more Medium Roast varieties ... any suggestions?
I have tried Van Houtte House Blend Medium Roast Coffee, Timothy's Italian Blend Medium Roast Coffee & Green Mountain Nantucket Blend Medium Roast Coffee. They are all quite good but I wanted to try something different this time.

At my local Costco it's $25 for a 50 pack of Van Houtte House Blend. It's a cheaper option at $0.50 per cup if your local Costco carries this (and if you have a Costco membership). Not my fav though, I still opt to buy Coffee People Donut Shop online. :)

I agree with you, Costco is the best place when it comes to price per k-cup but their selection is usually limited tow two types per warehouse and the two types seem to vary from region to region. Here in my BC Costco, we can only buy (as of last time I checked) Timothy's Breakfast Blend and Timothy's Colombian Excellencia Coffee.

that's a REALLY good deal.. they even have a few 50 pks for $25 that is comparable to Costco.. but maybe a few that people would prefer.. I would have been all over this deal if I didn't go for the futureshop buy 4 for 3, and the keurig,com deal for registering your machine.. wish I chose a few different ones though.. the selection is awesome from keurig.com but did it quick and didn't get a tea I should have..
if someone in Montreal is looking to order from ecs but wants to split an order let me know.

Woohoo my favourite K-Cup at an amazing price! I don't care if they're expired, they're vacuum sealed anyway. Bought 10 boxes at a little under $0.42 each. I didn't even see anything when I ordered that said if they're expired or not.

For those in the east end of the GTA, just came across Markcol Distribution:
http://markcoldistribution.com/
There is a location in Pickering now as well by Brock Rd and Bailey - just went there last night (it's actually a small section within a furniture store). Their prices are more in line with RMC Beverage and Singlecup.ca ($14.88) a box and $12 a box for the flavours that are the montly special. They carry Timothy's, Gloria Jeans, Coffee People, Donut House, Caribou Coffee, Green Mountain, Emeril's, Celestial Seasonings and Cafe Escapes.
The nice thing about Markcol is that they let you mix and match flavours for the same price.

Would either of you tell me what that coffee is like. I recently bought a keurig but have not yet found a coffee I "love" The last few years I have been buying a fine grind from Tim Hortons for our old coffee maker which we liked. Most of the coffees I have bought for my Keurig seem bitterer (is that a word :confused: ) than we're used to or are very weak.

If you like the Timmies Fine grind then try some of the donut shop flavours. Timothy's, Coffee People and Donut House all have a Donut Shop or Donut House flavour that is similar.
Also, I find the Timothy's Private Blend or Breakfast Blend are somewhat comparable to Tim Horton's.
The other option is to just get the My K-Cup filter and put the Tim Horton's fine grind in it and use that.

I too love Coffee People's Donut Shop. I have tried nearly all medium and medium-bold blends, and this one is my (and if you go by Amazon's readers comments) and lot of other people's favourite blend. I would highly recommend that all people try to order this.
ECS coffee (http://www.ecscoffee.com/promotions/coffee-people-donut-shop-k-cup-24pack.html)has the 24-pack for $10 which is the best price I have seen this (even cheaper than Costco and their own special a few months ago for a $24 50-pack). Highly recommend it!!

+1 for ECS, however, I am in the Niagara region so I can only make it to their store if I am out that way (not worth the drive). My last order was from keurig.com in which I ordered over $130 worth and paid the 9.95 shipping and brokerage fee. I was not hit with any customs fees (or ANY fees for that matter) . The $9.95 charge IS showing on my invoice that I received via email.
*Edit - The fee only shows in S&H column. My Custom Duty Fee column says $0.00

I ordered a 50 assorted pack of K cups from Tweed and Hickory... they were very fast at shipping it out to me.. but my biggest
problem is that Canada post has had it here in my city... (I know this as I have the tracking number) since December 24 in the
wee early hours of the day. Today is Jan. 4th and I still have not received my package. It is here somewhere but not at my house.
Tweed and Hickory were very easy to deal with.. the assorted pack that I got, a person could get 50 different kinds, or 5 sets of ten,
or ten sets of five, the varieties were almost unlimited..... and they had a HUGE selection. The price I think... was $37.50 plus shipping
of $10 but I got to choose a large variety of flavors etc so I will try and then have a better idea of what we want to order next time.
I bought a Cuisinart brewer... and I went to the Keurig.com site to register and get the deal ... but they didn't recognize my serial number
and then told me to register at Cuisinart. Well to register there... I get no offer of free anything.. :( that makes me very sad. I like
free coffee and tea..... whats up with that anyways??? Anyone have any idea??

Most of the coffees I have bought for my Keurig seem bitterer (is that a word :confused: ) than we're used to or are very weak.
While I find it almost impossible to properly describe a taste :) - it is one of my favorites as well. Based on your comments - I would be looking for medium roast that is bold or extra bold.
The medium roast is just enough to give it that good coffee flavor without it being bitter and the bold/extra bold prevents that watery taste. But that's just my unsophisticated palette giving the opinion.
Bold just means they cram a bit more coffee in the K-cups. I find all dark roasts way too bitter for me. So medium roast/extra bold varieties like Donut shop are a great choice. The fact that they are $10 a box seals the deal for me.
Along with the Donut Shop - Newmans Special Blend Organic or the Nantucket blend are my top 3.

Yup, look for the store with the giant rocking chair. ;)
My wife asked how they got around to selling K-Cups in a furniture store and the owner said that Markcol was the coffee provider for their office and since they had a lot of customers in the Pickering/Ajax area they asked them if they would be willing to be a distributor.
Just glad that they said yes! :)

Expiry date is normally printed on each K-Cup, on the plastic body. However, since this is coffee (non-perishable product), sealed in, I wouldn't worry too much about it. You may lose some flavour but nothing else bad can happen. The problem with coffee is that it looses volatile oils by roasting/grinding and this is where the flavour comes from. Keurig seals their coffee so as long as the seal is intact everything is ok.

Has anyone figured out how to use the basket filter with leaves and not have it overflow? I'm planning on placing on order with Keurig (the 2 free when registering).

Not sure what you mean by overflow. I had major issues with the basket when using it with my own grind. It would leak and grinds came out of it. If it's the same type of issue (likely) you simply need to lower a bit the little soft ring placed on the top needle. It is not sealing properly and pulling it down a few millimeters will fix this issue. The ring moves freely on the needle, don't worry about repositioning it. Tea however should be steeped properly, so perhaps simply using hot water from the machine is enough, as others suggested (it's what I do). Just make sure to either wash the k-cup holder, or dispose of the first run of how water if you previously made coffee.

anyone tell me how the coffee people donut house compares to the green mountain donut house? (only the green mountain came in my sample pack) and I bought one more box from the FS deal. it's ok.. but not 100% to my liking.

I was on Sears.ca and tried to order some k-cups with the 30% off outlet coupon... seems to work.. $9.74 for 18... I didn't actually process the order though so I'm not 100% sure it would have gone through, but should have.

Not sure if its been posted already.
Register your brewer or a brewer ;) on Keurig.com
You get a coupon code for BUY 2 GET 2 FREE. Box of 24 is $13.90.
and delivery is free and all you pay for is 9.95 brokerage fee as it comes from the USA - no customs fees.
Basically comes out to abuot 40 cents per Kcup delivered to your front door and you have a selection/choice of almost any KCup ever created, they have hundreds of selections.
Ive regsitered 3 brewers and ordered 288 Kcups for just under $120.
You won't find it cheaper anywhere.

Keurig.com is the only place we order from now...No one else has the variety that they do so it's a great place to sample new things, and we usually have it delivered within 4 days of ordering.
Coffee People Tree Hugger is our current fave, after Green Mountain Kona Blend and Green Mountain Sumatra. The Apple cider is AWESOME too.

I agree. I usually wait for an online coupon that gives $2.00 off per box, making the box price about $11.90 a box. When you stock up and buy 6 boxes, you get 5 free k-cups (it's better than nothing), but you also get 1 point per k-cup, and you can use those for to purchase other brewers or k-cup holders (not sure if you can use it to order coffee though...). If you add it all up, in USA $$$ it works out to about 55 cents a k-cup, which is a pretty good deal if exchange is at par. Next time they have a coupon, our office will be buying a ton of boxes (probably close to 20) which would lower the average price to about 52 cents a k-cup. And I get all the points for doing the order :)
Like tiggrrrrr said, they have the best selection and the best interface for buying coffee, especially if you want to try something new too. User comments are great. But you can still use this info to buy your coffee elsewhere if you want.

+1. Fast shipping, and cheaper than keurig.com if you order 16 boxes.
Keurig.com lost my business when the GM Breakfast Blend was conveniently sold out during a good sale, and reappeared shortly after.

A group of three others and I just bought 16 boxes of K-Cups from singlecup.ca and shared in the $32 discount and free shipping... lots of great varieties available there. Just tried a Gloria Jeans GJ Special Blend... it was fantastic!!
I ordered 6 Donut shop boxes (24 qty) and 4 Green Mountain Iced Coffee Nantucket (22 qty) k-cup boxes for $10 each and free shopping from ecscoffee today.... comes to 43 cents per k-cup. Not bad at all!!!

AMAZING selection... came out to $40 for 92 kcups of mostly kinds I wouldn't be able to get else where...
Yup even with the $10 extra it's the best deal (43 cents each!)
Not sure why people complain about the $10 extra fee.. ah well..
Also if you know others, buy in groups (ie: buy $100 ish) and after a while you get a permanent discount! I'll have to log in to see what my discount is these days, I only order from Keurig.com.. best selection and in big quantities, best price!

Cheaper yes, but with the K-cups you can get variety without worrying about having several open packs of coffee. I have my standard coffee that I use with the 'my k-cup' and then have several different types of k-cups that I alternate depending on my mood, time of day, etc... K-cups are not a cheap way to make a cup of coffee, but they are convenient.

I've discovered that I can get about 3 travel mugs (1 medium cup & 1 small cup per mug) per k-cup without sacrificing too much in terms of flavour. Granted I'm not much of a coffee drinker (neither is my wife), but it's something to consider. We've found it's about the same price for k-cups as it is to buy our coffee, based on how we drink it.

Yeah, have to agree with this too. We get about 14 oz from a bold k-cup blend and it is plenty strong. We just select an 8 oz cup and when that cycle has run, take the k-cup out and squeeze it a bit to mix the gounds up and throw it back in for 6 more ounces. Medium or dark roasts I can get away with 12 ounces of water; light roasts 10 ounces. Definitely experiment a bit.

I actually went to the ECS Coffee retail store for the first time on Saturday....
DO NOT go on Saturday if you can avoid it...! The little store was crammed! :lol:
But $10 for 24/pk of Donut shop was pretty sweet and $16.75 i think for 24 mix/match...
Plus those costs included tax.... sweeeeet!
I've been enjoying a different brand/flavour almost every day!
And my wife bought some Tea K-cups... *gag*
Fortunately my Cuisinart brewer has a rinse cycle... heh heh... Although any brewer does if you brew with no cup... :)

I ordered from them and the next day they e-mailed me with a Fed Ex tracking number. (Jan 6 order; Jan 7 tracking number and it was on the road with Fed Ex by Jan 8). Estimated time of arrival in Alberta: Jan 14 but I received it on Jan 11th. You might want to call and check.

Yup, it would be cheaper.
For best results:
1) Use a Burr grinder to pulverize your beans NOT the spinning metal blade style that makes your beans into dust.
2) Fill the My K-Cup almost completely, with a medium-coarse grind.

Tracking number has never updated (never been picked up at origin) in Fedex system but had an expected delivery date of January 13th. Called Fedex today to see if it would be delivered as still showing as not picked up. Fedex said they have no record of the package ever being picked up and therefore would not be delivered today. Called Keurig and gave them the whole story. Basically I was treated like an idiot. Service rep kept telling me the tracking number and expected delivery date. Then told me that I should know packages get stuck at the border. I asked her if this was the case as again the package is never showing picked up. She never answered me and would do nothing to help.
Not impressed with the service at Keurig and even if the package eventually gets here will not be reordering with them. Too much hassle

My faith in Keurig has been restored :) I emailed Keurig at the email on the bottom of my order to express my frustration with the service I had received. A wonderful lady called me within two hours of my email and advised me that she had looked into my issue. She advised the my order had not infact shipped as a couple of items had gone out of stock and the shipping tracking was just because they printed my shipping label. She sent me a box of in stock coffee free of charge while I wait for my order ship.
I'm impressed with how Keurig made the situation right. I think the mark of a good company is not that they never have issues but how they handle an issue when one arises. I will be ordering from Keurig when my coffee runs out :)

so far I've ordered from FS, ECS and Keurig... (I got machine for xmas, and I have to admit I'm a little obsessed)..
FS experience:
Knowing I was getting the machine I put in an order Dec 17th so that I'd have more variety at xmas. 2 weeks later my order was still in processing mode, and then I finally got an email that certain items were out of stock, even though everything showed in stock when I ordered. ended up cancelling my order, and then putting in another one on the 4 for 3 special.. got them a week later.
ECS:
ordered tons of coffee on Monday night, and had my order Wednesday. They messed up the order slightly, and I call to say there was a mistake... had what what missing from my order by the following day (Thursday!!!).. quick, polite service...
Keurig:
ordered Jan 3rd.. nothing for 8-9 days on the website.. then finally on the 11th, it showed that my order shipped on the 9th... but the tracking still shows it as waiting for pick up.... it was supposed to deliver today, but nothing... and I doubt it's been picked up after seeing what others have written..

I can also give positive feedback on ECS. Ordered and received to Manitoba within 2 days. Progress was updated via email. Not sure it is reasonable at their regular prices but I only bought coffee that was on for 10$ and 10 boxes got free shipping. Expiry dates on the sale items was late 2011.
I have had my Keurig for awhile and used to be happy with FutureShop. However once they were forced to stop charging taxes they raised the prices by ~3.00 a box. Whenever they have sales it is usually stock near expiry dates. I will still buy from them when on sale as they have a few varieties I like. Locally Costco is the best deal but lately the 2 stores I go to have stopped selling the XBold dark roasts and concentrated on medium to mild roasts with minimal selection.
Finally I have a My KCup and the solofill. It took me a long time to get the My Kcup to make a decent cup of coffee. The solofill is way better and I would recommend this over the my kcup to anyone who wants to brew their own coffee.

I too have had good experiences dealing with ECS.
I ordered enough to get free shipping and asked the reception lady on the phone if they could use Canadapost instead of FedEx for me (as Fedex doesn't have a local depot for me to pick up from and CP is right around the corner).
She said no issues, and asked me to call when I placed my order. Did so after the order went through. She found it and personally took care of it and dropped it off at CanadaPost. Sent me an email afterwards saying that it is done and gave me a CP tracking number. Exceptional service. In fact, I noticed that the postage on the box was close to $15-17. I am sure they pay less with Fedex since they probably have a business account.
Cannot say enough good things about ECS. Great selection, prices and customer support.

A bit of an update....
My order from keurig apparently shipped on the 12th... and showed up a tracking number... the tracking number doesn't even say they have been picked up..
BUT this is a fedex problem, not a keurig issue. My company deals with fedex quite a bit and we often get orders delivered to us that still show as "initialized" on the fedex tracking. Stupid fedex...
Overall I am impressed with the way they've handled the situation.
I too have used ECS... they are great... I will most likely order from them from now on. Only ordered direct because I got the 2 free for registering.

My experience with Keurig.com is bad. 1st is the referral system. Don't expect to get your 2 free boxes if you ever refer someone who's buying a machine from them (I know the machine is overpriced from them, but I knew someone who was willing to pay this price.) Their referal system doesn't work, and they wouldnt do anything to fix it. Just told me that it was my problem, and that I need to refer someone before the purchase was made. It's what I've done, and I even have the referral email to prove it, but they won't honor it.
I ordered coffee 2 times from them, took about a month each time. Long delay combined with poor customer service, wow that sucks. Will now order from ECS or visit my local Costco.

I'd just like to throw in something my wife and I recently went thru with FedEx after ordering from Keurig.
Our order was processed a couple days late but they shipped it fine out of the states and was in Canada on schedule. The main problem was the FedEx delivery person who for some reason didn't bother delivering the package to our door for 2 days. I was in meetings and did not have my phone with me and supposidly he called my number to see if anyone was home(my guess). Obviously I did not pick up and so he never bothered to even buzz our number in the apartment building. He did it the next day too and after furiously calling and receiving apoligies left and right, they finally delivered it today with the delivery person actually using our buzz code this time!
Also, we were at costco and could only find the house blend and the dark roast k-cups. Does anyone know if the decaf k-cups should be available at all costcos?

I find it hit and miss. I see it sometimes and don't other times. However, as someone reported, the Decaf is at Sobeys at $0.50/k-cup pricing, which is the same as Costco. So you might want to try some Sobeys in your area. Last I was at Sobeys, I noticed some Van Houtte packs there (didn't pay attention to which ones exactly).
Hopefully they will find their way to Superstore too. And also other brands. Not too fond of the Van Houtte offerings.

Edit: If you were a member of their former loyalty program (Club Javanation), then you will get an additional 10% off - that brings the cost down to approximately $0.443 per K-Cup!

A bit of an update....
My order from keurig apparently shipped on the 12th... and showed up a tracking number... the tracking number doesn't even say they have been picked up..
BUT this is a fedex problem, not a keurig issue. My company deals with fedex quite a bit and we often get orders delivered to us that still show as "initialized" on the fedex tracking. Stupid fedex...
Overall I am impressed with the way they've handled the situation.
I too have used ECS... they are great... I will most likely order from them from now on. Only ordered direct because I got the 2 free for registering.
I have in the past received items from fedex and he likes without them updating their website, but I know there is an issue with the Keurig one... it was supposed to be shipped on the 10th and delivered on the 13th.. still didn't get it today (14th), and I doubt it's picked up.. called them to see what's up and they said if I don't receive it Monday I'll get a large box of coffee..

Thanks. Combined with 2 Free Box code for an extra $3 off.
However I got dinged $9.95 Brokerage even without the $3 off.
Called this morning and got nothing just that I should have my order by the 19th. :(
Got my shipping confirmation and checked my CC, no Brokerage fee. 96 (4x24) K-Cups for $27.19 and last night about 7pm EST I got a call from Keurig to apologize for the shipping delay and are sending a free box of 24 more. So in total 120 K-Cups for $27.19 CND = $0.227/K-Cup :razz:
Best deal ever!!!

So, With the Keurig.com deal, if they charge 9.95 brokerage/customs fee, wouldn't it make more sense to get more than 4 boxes? Maybe get 6 boxes? Or would the customs fee increase the more boxes you get?

No. It's not COD and coffee is non-taxable so no one is collecting government taxes therefore no collected fees.
Carriers charge fees when they have to clear and pay taxes on your behalf.

when did you put your order in? I called Friday to complain (jan 3rd order).. they said that if I don't get the coffee by Monday they'd send me a free box.. now after the call I see it was picked up.. and in Mississauga.. charged on my CC $30 for 92 k cups (had some variety packs and ordered before the coupon came out..) still a great price!

Wow. Keurig has some pretty bad customer service. So I placed my order on Dec 30th and I've not received anything yet...still shows "In process". So I call them today. The lady I spoke with kept insisting that it's only been 10 business days (it's been 11 depending on holidays) and that I should receive it tomorrow. I asked her how that was possible given I've not received a shipment notification yet. As I said to her, I don't care too much when I get it (well, I do because I've had to go buy some somewhere else), it's the lack of an ETA that is the problem.
I'll call them back tomorrow when I don't get the delivery. Almost certainly will not repeat order from Keurig.com.

They have all the Van Houtte and Timothy's flavours I like for $10.99 for 24pk box. I pick it up in the GTA, since it's not far from my work.
If they don't have what I want, or I want something more extravagant, then I order from:

That's what I thought too, but I've noticed that Timothy coffee shops in the GTA now carry Timothy's branded (and to a lesser extent, Green Mountain) k-cups in 24 packs for around $15. (I guess this makes sense since they bought the Timothy's chain but I wish they carried more flavours for Green Mountain.)

Green Mountain bought Timothy's, but not the retail store portion of the business. Another company bought that end... but it makes sense that they still use the same supplier.

Does anyone know that if I include a "gift message" when shipping, will I be charged the $9.95 customs/brokerage fee?
Right now Keurig has a promo of a free sample pack of 5 cups when you buy six boxes. When combining this with the 2 free boxes for a new brewer, you can get 149 k-cups for 55.60 free shipping. That's about $0.37 per cup, not bad at all! If I get hit with the $9.95 brokerage fee then it works out to $0.44 per cup.
If you add six boxes to your cart, just add a sample pack (not all kcups offer sample pack sizes) to your cart and it gets changed to free. The cheers11 $3.00 off code doesn't work anymore.

Sigh...This was bound to happen as soon as GMCR started buying out all the k-cup coffee roasting companies. They practically have a monopoly over the k-cup distribution and sales. I think there is probably like one independent roaster left. And with them only gaining more market share, I don't think we have seen the end of the escalation yet.

- Timothy 18 packs on for $8.49 ($2 off) = $0.47/kcup

Bpcrally, did the same here. Cuisinart's 15 minute 75 question registration borders on absurd (you want to know how much every member of my family makes to register this brewer? My 7 year old neice suddenly made 1.8 mil this year), and no, Cuisinart provides absolutely no bonus like Keurig does.
However, after emailing Keurig to ask if they're promotion of order two, get two additional for free applies to cuisinart, they said 'no, but we'll mail you out a coupon for it anyhow'.
So, ask away, see what happends.

I heard this filter is good:
http://www.solofill.com/order/
I am currently using a hack on the my k-cup, which is to take a used k-cup trim the rim off with scissors (so it fits) and place it into the my k-cup holder and then put the my k-cup filter in.
This slows down the brewing process making it a better cup of coffee.
Another option is disposa kups or just the lids from:
http://disposakups.com/
It's kind of sickening how little coffee you are getting when you buy the k-cups, but as a somebody who swore up and down that this was an insane purchase, I must admit, this machine makes a really good cup of coffee.
I didn't see the donut shop flavour on the poll, that's my personal fav.
I will say, the flavour is all in the brewing process, so really, there are alternatives to the store bought k-cups, even though it's not a hassle free as putting a name brand premade k-cup in.

I don't understand how Keurig can truly pinch us. Just get the mycup thingy and use your own grinds.The My K-Cup thingy was engineered by Keurig and doesn't work very well because Keurig make money off the k-kups, not the brewers. And is just a diversion from the fact that 6 billion of these things will be going into landfills this year.
As mentioned above the Solofill does an excellent job, has got great reviews and has the attention of Keurig. They have made authorized Keurig dealers take it off their websites and frown on them selling them in store. If you want a Canadian supplier, they are available here:

Looks like ECS is out of stock for the Coffee People Donut Shop for $10.
However they do have bulk packs of 50 k-cups for $25 here.
http://www.ecscoffee.com/category/single-cup-capsules/keurig.html?cat=103
Unfortunately, they put the price at $24.99 instead of $25. So when you add four of them to your cart, you still have to pay shipping because you are 4 cents short of $100! How annoying!
Edit: I found a work-around. You can add a single k-cup (they sell individuals) for 85 cents. That will put you over the $100 threshold for free shipping. $100.81 for 201 k-cups.

I was just showing my wife that you can get a 3 lb can of Kirkland Signature coffee for $13 or so and showed her the heft of the can compared to $10 worth of k-cups.
I went ahead and ordered the Solofill.
I will say that this is very reminiscent of inkjet cartridges. If not the printer that they get you on, but the refills. I'd like to see somebody take a box of K cups dump all the coffee out and see how much actual coffee you getting for $10 or 11 or 12 for whatever it is for a box of 18.

Also, for some reason, all of the Van Houtte House Blend Mediums that I have tried have ended up with a bunch of grounds in my cup. And it seems to be only that particular flavor. I've cleaned my machine, but it doesn't affect any of the other types. Very odd.

that is very odd that it's only the one brand. perhaps a manufacturing defect with the k-cup? depending on your keurig model, try adjusting the washer or seal thing down slightly that's around the upper needle that punctures the top of the k-cup

IMO the design of the my k-cup plain sucks. I always find, regardless of the amount of coffee grinds you put in it, it seems weak. and actual k-cups have about 1/2 of what I put in the my k-cup. the filtering process kind of forces the water over the top of the my k-cup and not through the grinds. also, the lid doesn't always seal properly when put on the holder of the my k-cup. there should be a seal or something between the lid and holder. lastly, as I mentioned above about the gasket around the upper needle. if always jumping brands of k-cups some push the gasket up higher and it doesn't make proper contact with the lid of the my k-cup. I think part of design of the keurig has to do with making a good seal and that is directly related to the quality of brew.
from what I've read about the solofill and reviews, they have corrected these issues and it usually always makes a perfect cup
also, check around.. if you must have the my k-cup a better price can be found than $14.99. got mine from sears.ca for $11.XX

Price shown at then end will be final price you pay. I'm not sure what they are doing, but I think they actually ship from within Canada (at least the last time I ordered). The $10 is a processing fee but something to do because they are a US company ...
So PO'd at Keurig right now. We registered our machine and friends of ours have bought one as well. They're willing to register under my name and I was hoping we could combine our first orders into one and only pay the $10 service charge once. Keurig says no, we'd have to place seperate orders and pay it twice. Anyone have a suggestion on how to get around paying twice?

I found another Canadian Website where you can order K-cups. The prices are not spectacular, but they are comparable to other retailers such as Bed Bath & Beyond, and Futureshop. It's about $11.75/18 cups. They don't have a ton of selection (~24 coffee/tea/hot chocolate), however it's free shipping over $59, or 6 boxes of K-cups. They claim that you will receive the package within 2-6 days Canada Post Expedited Parcel.
They also sell the solofill cup for $18.95, which is a bit cheaper than most other places.

Here's the My k-cup "hack" to slow the coffee down so it brews stronger. This is not my invention, but something I read somewhere. I haven't compared the difference to using this method and not using the method, I went straight away to using it and my coffee doesn't seem weak.
The white cup is a used k-cup with the paper filter pulled out and the rim trimmed off so it fits into the my k-cup housing.

Interesting, have you tried a finer grind coffee, I know they recommend a course grind, but their grind in the k-cup itself is on the finer side of medium. I'm not sure their thinking there, water goes through course grinds faster than a fine and when you're passing water through it in less than a minute, the more contact with the coffee the better. But I still think it's engineered to fail, wouldn't want to cut into your cash cow to save the environment any...

That's a pretty solid deal... $130 is a decent price for the KU60, and then you get the carousel which normally you can find for $20, and the my k-cup is another $15 on sale..

not that special, but I was in an IGA today in Quebec (Sobey's I think everywhere else).. they had coupons for $3 off 2 boxes of KCups.. I would imagine you should be able to use them at other places since they didn't have anything with the store on them.. again, nothing special, but if you can find them on sale and tack this on, could make for a decent deal.. they were selling 12 packs for $9 there, so it would be $15 for 24.. your avg regular price everywhere else, but if you just want to buy 2 packs to try stuff, could work.

I just got my shipping notification from Keurig.com and can confirm I did not get charged a brokerage fee. When I initially placed the order it showed up and appeared that I would be charged. After the order the details showed that the charge had been removed, and the shipping notification shows that it has been removed.
This may be due to the fact that I had no hardware type items in the order. Coffee is considered a food item, and there is no tax or duty charged on it at the border. Just wondering if anyone actually got charged the brokerage fee with just a coffee only order?

Ouch! 216 grams max for average of $10+
Here's the My k-cup "hack" to slow the coffee down so it brews stronger. This is not my invention, but something I read somewhere. I haven't compared the difference to using this method and not using the method, I went straight away to using it and my coffee doesn't seem weak.
The white cup is a used k-cup with the paper filter pulled out and the rim trimmed off so it fits into the my k-cup housing.
.....
Wow. Just tried that this morning and it works great. I've never been totally happy with the "my k-cup", but this little trick made a great cup of coffee this morning. Thanks and thanked. :D

For those who are able to order to an amerifriend (might even ship here, but not sure), Amazon.com has a few good deals going on:
Twinings Pure Camomile Tea 2 x 25 packs for $18.82.. plus if you "subscribe" to an automatic re-order you can save an additional 15% so it brings it down to $16 (you can cancel the subscription at any time)... comes out to 32cents a cup.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0028H1H0U/ref=rcx_subs_dp
Van Houtte and Wolfgang Puck coffee for 25% off (10% for using code: VANKCUP5 and then 15% for subscribing to it as well).. comes out to $20 for 48 k cups, or about 41.6 cents a K Cup... not too bad

Same thing for me. Bought 4 boxes, 2 lowest ones are free and checkout showed brokerage of about $10. Order was shipped and credit card charged without $10 brokerage. Average box is $16 * 2 = $32 / 96 (24*4) K-Cups = $0.33 USD per K-Cup.
I was lucky enough to get an extra free box as a good will gesture because of eastern coast snow storm delaying shipments at the start of the month.
My total was $32 / 120 (24*5) K-Cups = $0.27 USD per K-Cup.

Costco has the B90 I think with 90 cups of free coffee. At current market that is (90x$0.50) $45.00 worth of coffee meaning your paying $135.00 for the brewer and a $15.00 reusable cup.
But that cup seems to pee all over the counter when ever I use it.

Seems reasonable. I think it's slightly cheaper at Costco in the US, but then there's not as many k-cups included and HST at the border would probably negate any saving.... Also, the warranty would probably be void over here too.

I think that I saw the same model on sale at London Drugs for $140 with 12 k-cups. Might want to buy that and chose your own k-cups instead of the Costco package, but personally I would spend a little more and get the Cuisinart just for the 80oz (vs 48oz) water reservoir and the rinse/hot water functions.
London Drugs also has the Cuisinart on sale for $200, as does ECS Coffee (with free shipping). Might be better deals out there if you shop around too - I think I've seen it as low as $170.

Did I miss anything? I think it's because the original k cups or even the My K Cup has a cap, that stops the coffee from getting out of the cup. But the trick here does not involve a cap?
Any advice is greatly appreciated!:)

as for the k-up you trimmed, maybe trim a little more off. it doesn't matter how far down into the my k-cup holder it sits, then your my k-cup lid should fit the way it's meant to
and... add more coffee and make sure the rubber gasket around the upper needle is down slightly to meet the lid of the my k-cup. allow the lid to push the gasket to where needed to make a proper seal.
it'll take some playing but you'll find what works best for your taste ;)

They do charge a brokerage fee of $9.99 on orders to Canada (this is waived on your first order). They also charge shipping but I believe it is free if you buy 4 boxes or more. Your first order will have no brokerage (waived) or shipping (4+ boxes). Every other order will have the brokerage and potentially shipping.

I just ordered with keurig.com...when I was placing the order, it showed up on the site in the subtotal that the (.99 brokerage fee was being charged, and did this even after I hit place order. The email confirmation I got a few minutes later shows the total WITHOUT that charge, so we'll see what total ends up on my credit card...even with the brokerage fee, it was $39 for 4 boxes ( I had the buy 2 get 2 free coupon) so even if I get charged the fee, $10 each is a great deal! I just ordered 4 boxes from singlecup.ca and it was over $70 for 4 boxes, they raised their prices after Christmas...

I just bought a machine and want to buy in bulk (500 K-cups) and so far the best price I have seen is from Costco (50 Van Houtte K-cups for $25 = $0.50).
Unless there is a special/coupon, ecscoffee.com, singlecup.ca and keurig.com are more expensive than Costco, however, they have an excellent selection.
Here is a comparison of Timothy's French Roast K Cup 24 pack
ecscoffee.com: 14.99 / 24 = ~ $0.63
singlecup.ca: 15.99 / 24 = ~ $0.67
keurig.com: 13.90USD / 24 = ~ $0.58USD
They all offer free shipping if you buy a certain dollar amount and keuring.com may add a $10USD brokerage fee to all orders.
Are there other places where you can get a better deal when buying in bulk?

Register your brewer on Keurig.com and you will get a BOGO coupon and they will waive the shipping (4+ boxes) and the brokerage on your first order. Plus CDN$ is better than US$ currently. Might work out better for your bulk purchase from them for this one order.

For those interested
We at work have the official Van Houtte coffee service company come in. We have the pro machines that auto fill and autodispose of the K-Cups. We get the coffee machines for free including service but have to buy the K-cups from them. We must go though a 1000+ K cups a week between all the floors. I asked the service lady who was stocking the K-cups how much the boxes were. She said $57 a case for 4x24 = $0.60 a K-cup
Costco is still the cheapest if you don't use any Kurieg deals...

They are not pre-mixed. You will still need cream & sugar if that is what you take in your coffee.
You might also find that a lot of the flavored coffees do not require anything to be added however

They are not pre-mixed. You will still need cream & sugar if that is what you take in your coffee.
You might also find that a lot of the flavored coffees do not require anything to be added however
Ah okay, thanks for the response.

I bought one as well , and like it . The only thing I find ,cleaning it out is a pain, want to be careful not to damage the filter screen.
How do you clean yours ? Any tips you can share ?
Rinse it under water and if there is some left in the bottom indent I gently squeeze the bottom mesh and it falls out as I rinse.

Got my B2G2 order today but one of the boxes is not what I had ordered. I thought I read some others had the same issue. How did you get it resolved? Do I have to pay to ship it back? I wouldnt mind keeping it but it has hazelfrigginnut flavor.
BTW, I didnt get charged brokerage. Also, the package did not require a signature..so fedex left it at my door. Just keep in mind for those who live in apt blds or rough neighbourhoods.

Call or Email Kuerig.com, they are the nicest people to deal with and will fix the mistake. Maybe even send an additional box as a sorry.

The last order they sent me was incorrect as well. They sent me about 9 boxes of coffee/teas and not one was from my actual order. I called them up on the phone and the CSR was very polite and helpful. It took a little while for me to receive my order (about 10 days or so) but I was able to keep all the stuff they sent me previously and they even sent me a free box as well. One thing though is that the K cup carousel I ordered did not ship until I contacted them a few days ago about it. It took longer than I would have liked, but I eventually received everything and I got 10 boxes free on top of that.

$30 to get this filter and it tastes weak. Mind you the my k-cup basket holds quite a bit more coffee.
Just a heads up that IMHO the solo fill won't do a much better job.

For me the solofill is a significantly better and easier to use product. It makes a much stronger cup of coffee (as long as you use a dark roast). I use it 1 to 2 times a week with either a dark roast of Reunion Island or a very strong Kona that someone picked up for me in Hawaii. Perhaps your coffee grind was too coarse. My problem with it is that it does not look to be the most durable device out there.

I was looking to order a couple of different types of coffee, and the only place that I could find it that has them all in stock was tweedandhickory.com. I know they've been mentioned here before, but this is going to be my first time placing an order with them. Fingers crossed it all goes well. I might wait another day or two to see if they come back in stock at singlecup.ca though (even Keurig.com has one of them out of stock).

FYI,
I had bought a bunch of boxes several months ago via the staples.com deal. Last weekend I opened one of the Green Mountain Breakfast Blends, and the the taste was all wrong in the 2 k-cups that I tried. I don't know if it was a bad batch, or if it was actually the wrong flavour...either way, I did not like it. I emailed GMCR customer service, and got a fast reply asking for the information posted on the box and cups, and they were originally going to mail me a coupon for a free box, but when they realized I was in Canada, they said I could choose the flavour of my choice, and they would send it to me.
2 thumbs up for GMCR customer service!

I have read a few posts talking about fees when shipping across the border.
I had some input hopefully it hasn't been discussed already(my opinion without any backing)
Most of these K-Cups are made in Canada or US so I think there is no duty NAFTA.
Here in BC there is NO Tax on Coffee.
So technically they cant charge you brokerage fees for assessing tax + duty because there isn't any...
Has anyone actually been charged yet?

This may not be the thread for this, but I’ve been wondering this for some time now… I have a small retail operation, not related to coffee in any way, and I’m starting to see k-cups sold in a lot of places that I wouldn’t ordinarily think of as coffee suppliers, a hardware store and a high end clothing store here in my town spring to mind. It’s made me think… why I aren’t selling k-cups; it fits with my products as much as it does with hammers and shoes. I’m thinking I’d sell make your own dozens.
I currently buy my coffee online at http://www.alpinevalleycoffee.com/, they didn’t raise their prices when everyone else did last time… 10.95 for 24 when you buy a certain amount, with free shipping. I buy with a group and have it shipped to a mail drop across the border… I’m really close. It works out to about .45 cup. I wonder what the wholesale prices are… I just read an article online that listed it at .27 a cup, but that was before the last round of price increases. I think I’ll call green mountain coffee today and make some inquires. I realize that to attracted people I’d probably have to stock a wide variety, maybe 150.
You guys are always on the hunt for a good deal… would you pay $8 or $9 a dozen if you could pick from a selection of 150 or so.

It's free shipping with an order over $45, but you have to buy 12 boxes or more to get the 10.95 a box price... I currently buy with two other people so it costs me about $44 for 4 boxes and I have to drive over the boarder to pick it up, wich is not a big deal, I ship a lot of things from the US so I go over once a week regardless. 44 cents a cup, before this I was buying a lot from amazon.com for about 50 cents a cup and again having to go get it in the US.

like I said I have to drive accross the border to pick it up. I'm not sure how much longer I'll be able to get this deal, I guess Green Mountain Coffee is starting to crack down on online companies that sell the 24 size boxes directly to residential customers. I've contacted a few and many have recieved a letter from GMC telling them they are restricted to selling to the commercial or food service industry. I searched out a few of the companies in the US I used to buy from and now their sites indicated that they can only deliver to locations in certain states and only to commercial operations.
Coffee is also tax and duty free so there is nothing to pay at the border when I come back to canada.

They do charge a brokerage fee of $9.99 on orders to Canada (this is waived on your first order). They also charge shipping but I believe it is free if you buy 4 boxes or more. Your first order will have no brokerage (waived) or shipping (4+ boxes). Every other order will have the brokerage and potentially shipping.
I didn't realize this. I placed my second order, and was wondering why I got hit with the $9.99 brokerage fee when I didn't get hit with it the first time. Definitely makes it less appealing to order from them. Still a pretty good deal comparatively speaking from most of the other sites, but I'm pissed that I didn't realize this before placing my order.

I don't think it would be covered under NAFTA since the beans are grown outside Mexico and the US; however, there are no duties on coffee.

I have ordered from singlecup, koocoffee (sometimes stop in when I'm in burlington to mix and match my own) and keurig. After the price inflation recently I find Keurig to be the best. I place a big order every few months (12 boxes) between me and another family member. The 9.99 shipping and brokerage is nothing when you consider after getting to platinum member status (500 points. You get 1 for every k cup) you save another 15% off the regular price. You get gold status (10% discount) as soon as you sign up. It ends up being 11.81 per box on most of their products. $0.49 per cup, huge selection and our dollar being strong makes this a great buy in my opinion. Maybe not so much if you are buying smaller amounts.

There is a place in Pickering (just east of Toronto) that sells the individual flavours for .62 cents. Doesn't matter if you buy one or 20, same price. They had racks of different blends so for .62 cents each to make your own variety pack. So many flavours that I almost want to start drinking coffee! (machine was for the wife as a Christmas present)
It's located in a store that is called "Solid Wood Bed and Table" and is located at the South West corner of Plumber and Brock, first street south of the 401. Easy to see as they have a GIANT rocking chair out front, they have a sign on the door for Green Mountain Coffee.
Wow, I finally had a chance to go here today... I was not disappointed! There was so much selection to choose from, I got a mixture of full boxes and individual k-cups. This is the most coffee I've bought at one time :). I can finally sample some of the brands you can normally order online. I'll be in coffee/tea heaven for a long time now.
I recommend anyone in the area to check this place out!

2 packs for total $22.48
Thanks for the deal :)
Looks like the total for 2 boxes is $19.48 + $3.00 handling fee (p/u at store, ordered online) = $22.48
Is there not tax (13%) on top of this?

A Timothy's 18 pack K-Cup of French Vanilla is $9.74 at sears.ca!
The price shows up as 12.99, but once you check out, it is reduced to $9.74!
Seems like it only works for French Vanilla, all the other K-Cup packs show up for 12.99 :(
Order by phone to a sears store and there is no shipping or handling!
Item Number: 11038040810
Thanks for this deals. There are actually more flavours on sale at the $9.74 price. I just tried to order a couple of boxes of the Nantucket blend over the phone, but the $3 "Handling Fee" still applies to the ship-to-store option. The CSR did not want to budge on this.
I'm wondering if they would be $9.74 in-store?

"Regular Price: $12.99
Buy four K-Cups, get one FREE!*"
12.99*3 / 4 = $9.74 per box.
it is cheaper than sears because sears charges $3 handling fee per order.
seems like its buy 4 get 1 free. So 5 for the price of 4.
$51.96 / 5 = ~$10.40/box

Which would you rather do, sell to a distributer for $6 or to a consumer for $12? It's nice when you have a monopoly on a closed system and own 80% of the single cup market.

Good for them for having a successful system that was successfully marketed to the office coffee marketplace, took off from there and is protected by patents. Patents do not last forever and they will expire soon. No one is forced to buy a Keurig system. Once the patents expire I am sure there will be a few companies that try and create their own compatible k-cup, including from companies that criticized the environmental impact of the k-cup.
I have a keurig machine at home and pod at work. Both are great and provide coffee that is significantly better than what the average Canadian drinks at a price that is less than what an average Canadian pays for a cup of coffee outside the house.

And you're right patents are about to expire, why do you think GMCR was so interested in buying up all it's licensees? My guess, they're developing a new closed system with a new patent that wont expire for a long time. But what about all those machines you might ask, well you'll either have to upgrade to a new model or purchase something that will make the new k-cuffs compatible.

I believe Tim Horton's sizes and prices are:
Med = 10 oz = $1.33
Large = 14 oz = $1.50
Depending on the brand/flavour of the K-cup, I brew a 10 oz or 12 oz cup from my B70 (2 largest cup sizes)
$0.50 kcup ($0.40 when I pay with my 20% discounted GC's at HBC, Sears, FS)
$0.10 cream and sugar
Total = $0.60
I know I'm not factoring in electricity, water etc...but I'm not wasting gas waiting at Tim's drive thru either.
So for me, I'm saving quite a bit.

It is much easier for drug companies to do this than other companies. In fact, they do it all the time. E.g. Patent on Claritin expiring, hence change the formulation to the metabolite and extend the patent and launch it under a new name Aerius.
No doubt GMCR will introduce a new format for a new machine and will try and move its customers away. But, with millions of machines out there, there will be companies that will try and create k-cup compatible cups. If a company can currently throw instant coffee into a k-cup on the cheap as a means of getting around the patents, I am sure someone can figure out a way to do a proper K-cup without it costing an arm and a leg. I would not be surprised to see a company like Sara Lee try its hand after the patents expire. They have shown they are willing to do this with Nespresso capsules and it could help them extend their senseo brand.
The previous poster is likely correct in his coffee sizing. Tims coffee is so weak that it is equivalent to a watered down 12oz K-cup.

There won't be any need.
The Grove Square Medium Roast cup is not a real K-Cup and doesn't feature a filter. It's filled with micro-grind instant coffee.
Who the hell would pay for that? If I wanted instant, I'd pay $4 for a jar of Maxwell House and boil the kettle.

I've watched it for a long time before buying. Think I remember once in the coupon book that it was on sale but can't remember how much it was off. Of course I wasnt in the market yet so ended up paying full price (but still a deal in my opinion). Can honestly say it's the most used appliance in the kitchen. My wife was never a big coffee fan but after trying all the different flavors, she's hooked too.

On this page (http://www.sears.ca/product/keurig-timothys-18-pack-k-cup/611-000019349-KU14125), there is list of Timothy's
K-cups you can order from the drop down list on the left hand side. In the mini photo gallery, you can see the different flavours of coffee, and one of them is a picture of Midnight Magic. Unfortunately, Midnight Magic is not listed in the drop down list that you can order from >:(
I called Sears to see if the CSR could do a search for Midnight Magic in their catalog. The CSR tried to find it but turned up nothing. I was wondering if someone else could try their luck at trying to get the Sears item number for Midnight Magic. As this is a Timothy's brand of coffee, it may show up at checkout for $9.74!

I usually buy from Keurig's site, because the coffees I like are never for sale at FS (or most other places). When you've got 100's of choices at Keurig, and then you look at 10-20 choices at FS, it's pretty 'limited'. :lol:

Just an FYI, Van Houtte's online shop raised their regular prices to $17.45 per box of 24. They cite their reasoning as higher costs, but so far I haven't noticed a price raise in any other online stores (even on Van Houtte k-cups). It might be a sign that prices will go up. Or maybe Van Houtte is crazy.

Well, I placed a new order before cancelling my first one. One of the flavours sold out so I could not order it the second time.
I planned to cancel the 1st order but now I would rather just modify it so that I can keep the flavour that sold out.
Don't see any way to modify it.
I guess my options are
- cancel the 1st order
- return the other flavours I don't want (can this item be returned to a store?)
I would keep it if the expiry was decent but I am now sitting with 19 boxes ordered...lol

Neither of those seem to be a very good deal...Unless I'm missing something? Looks like regular London Drugs/Save-On-Foods/Bed, Bath & Beyond/etc in store pricing...
I personally like to go to Costco in the US because they have better flavor options then Costco in Canada, and it costs about $0.45/cup. Or on Costco.com (The US one) it works out to about $0.48/cup. I know shopping in the US isn't an option for everyone, but if you can shop just over the border it's the easiest way to get half decent pricing.
Actually, I generally come out ahead because if I fill up my truck up with gas at the US Costco, I save about $50/tank vs. Canadian prices...So it's almost like I get paid to go there...

All I see are the 18 cup boxes at singlecup.ca . Am I missing something ?
yes and no... they DID sell 24 counts ..
I usually order 4 - 5 x 24 count boxes of twinnings english breakfast tea for my wife and one 24 count box of timothy's original donut blend for myself, monthly.
tried to place the order last night and wasn't seeing the 24 count boxes anymore... I called and was on the phone with singlecup.ca this morning. as of this past month Keurig dropped the hammer on them in regards to what they are allowed to sell retail to the public.
twinnings is no longer available at all through retail, nor are any of the 24 count boxes in any variety.
seems to me now, Keurig = coffee nazi's :mad:
I was going to buy another brewer for our trailer, based on how they are really controlling limiting the retail sales end of it... I might sell the brewer I have an get a couple of Tassimo's, least they seem to be carried everywhere and look to be cheaper.
lastly, I have a costco question... I'm about 45min from my closest one... anyone local to one tell me if they sell either twinnings tea k-cups and/or timothy's donut blend in the large count boxes?

Interesting. I did 3 orders with 2 boxes in each to avoid a cancellation if they had 4 but not 6. When I went to pick up, I got some attitude from the clerk serving me. Apparently, stores were swamped with ISPU for k-cups and head office told them to cancel those appearing to be be hoarding. In my case, they considered 6 hoarding but because I did it separately they did not notice so they honored it. I can see their point but at the end of the day by canceling it is not like someone else was able to get the deal.

That's smart foresight :) Never knew FS would consider cancelling the whole order even if only 1 item is OOS. And I definitely would never even thought they would cancel for "hoarding" 6 boxes!

What you need to do is print out the cancellation and head on over to the store and have the manager explain why the order was canceled when there is sufficient stock on the floor. If not resolved, call head office and they will honor your order as the sale clearly stated that it includes in store pick up.
With so many Keurig machines being purchased over the last 5 months, retailers need to be a little more competitive with the k-cups. They wonder why we "hoard" when their daily prices are pathetic. Those 18 count boxes shouldn't be more than $10 every day. The 24 count should not be more than $12.
The best is going to Timothy's in a mall and seeing their prices. I go in there and ask how much, the girl goes Buy 6 boxes, get 1 free. WHOA! I ask how much per box. $15.99 for 18 count. I start laughing hysterically. Both workers now have my attention. I say I can get the same box across the street from the mall for $12 and on Keurig I can buy them for $11 with buy 2 boxes get one free. Their response: Yeah we know that place across the street and they are taking away our business. REALLY? Duh.. wonder why. :facepalm:

I shouldn't have to beg and wait in lines and fight with 2-3 people just to get what was advertised online as a special nationally, I but an item or two, pay with my Visa, get in store pickup (saving them shipping money, spending my gas money) and get denied for one reason or another. I'm getting tired of this crap. I did end up doing this because I want what I agreed to and because I drove 35km each way to that store that had the flavor I wanted. The person escalated to his manager, then he to some other person. He did me a special favor and granted me the opportunity to buy what I already bought online. Honestly, whats up with these online sales? I feel like a cheap ***** with my tail between my legs when I actually come out with something that was advertised.
I can see if I went and price matched or took advantage of a pricing error I might have to get feisty but this was advertised as a holiday special.
Oh well, I got my Timothy's Breakfast blend and Nantucket something or other in the end + 10 bucks in gas.

The person escalated to his manager, then he to some other person. He did me a special favor and granted me the opportunity to buy what I already bought online. Honestly, whats up with these online sales? I feel like a cheap ***** with my tail between my legs when I actually come out with something that was advertised.
I can see if I went and price matched or took advantage of a pricing error I might have to get feisty but this was advertised as a holiday special.
Oh well, I got my Timothy's Breakfast blend and Nantucket something or other in the end + 10 bucks in gas.
completely agree. you should send them an e-mail.

I do not consider it begging, but rather shoving it up their arse. I cannot tell you how many times over the past 5 years at both FS and BB, online ISPU orders have been screwed up. They cringe when they see me coming because they know someone has f-uped again. Out of it I have received unusual discounts, rain checks, incorrect PMs.
For some odd reason FS Oshawa staff have a hard time doing web orders properly. Three times, the order has not been there. I always have a good laugh with management because at that location they proudly display all of these banners for this that and the other. I asked him, how do you manage those banners when you cannot even get orders right? No comment. Anyway, during the holiday season, I had an ISPU for a Kinect. Go to get it and low and behold someone has taken it. Manager says we will get them in again before Xmas and I will put one aside for you. A week later he calls to let me know it is there. I go in and wouldn't you know it, someone (one of his staff) apparently took it off his desk and sold it or took it themselves. I then asked him if perhaps he should take a few banners down and if he would like help managing his employees as he clearly cannot when they are stealing from his desk. The result, knocked off $50 from the price and had one brought in from another store within 3 days.
Persistence and patience are key. RFDers know that all too well.

Van Houtte puts the expiry on the side of the k-cup. That sucks that they sold you expired stock, I actually don't think they are allowed to do that (at least in grocery stores they aren't).

Simply unbelievable. Try exchanging them in-store?
My Van Houtte boxes has the expiry date stamped at the one perforated end of the box in very small white letters. It's very easy to miss. The Variety Pack has a sticker on the side of the box.

I was also quite shocked to find out that out of 10 boxes ordered 9 were expired. I did manage to find the expiry date on the van houtte (it's in tiny white print that's barely noticible) but it will expire Jun/11 which is pretty soon.
Spoke with fs customer service who suggested I take it to a retail store and exchange them. Only problem is that most store have poor stock and it will be difficult to find 10 boxes of coffe I want. Bottom line is that fs shouldn't be sending out expired coffee in the first place. After having to waste even more of my time the issue was escalated to a supervisor who finally agreed to let me place another order online and he will match the sale price.
Now I just have to drive to a fs (at $1.35/L gas) to return 10 expired boxes of coffee that was supposed to be conveniently shipped to my home for free.

Hot Chocolate - 2 boxes in Dec, 2 in Feb 12
Variety Box July
Teas/Hot Chocolate best before are always ahead of the coffee.. I have some tea that I bought a few months back that don't expire for like 2 years almost.
still waiting on some Kenya Dark, and a few other boxes I ordered for someone else.. expecting those to be half and half on the BBF...
what a load of crap if you ask me... now I've got to go back to FS and argue with them to exchange them.
I do realize I'm marking expired, when it's really the best before date..

YES; why do you think they are on sale! Sell the expired with non-expired that way they don't lose money.
Manufacture gives them huge discount for products that are going to expire and they FS puts them on sale for small discount and FS makes massive margins!!

Did you guys all got very unlucky? I got 16 boxes for ISPU and all of them are not expired save for 1 that I'm not sure if it's expired as they didn't stamp the Timothy Hazelnut. Since all the 15 boxes are confirmed to be not expired I'm not going to bother returning that 1 box. This is so strange, I got very long expiry dates too! My earliest is Sept 2011 and my hot cocoa is Feb 2012!

ordered from ECS when they had the People's Donut Coffee at $10. It's probably my favourite regular coffee, but the $100 for free shipping hurts..
the FS deal 2 for 1, has been by far the cheapest I've gotten coffee. just the snags of getting expired ones.. called yesterday and they will refund my money which is good. it was actually PLEASANT dealing with FS yesterday.

Even though I didn't think that I would ever use them again, I ordered from Keurig.com. It's the only place that I could find the combination of the coffees I want, plus the price was probably cheaper than everywhere else. I hate paying the $10 import fee, but it is actually cheaper than the shipping fee from ESCoffee.com, unless the order is over $100, which my order wasn't. One of my favorite coffees is the Timothys Original Donut Blend which is on sale at ESC, but shipping to NL was over $17, so it wasn't worth it.
I have a hard time finding Timothys Original Donut Blend in stores like FS, Sears, etc. Is it just me or do others have trouble as well?

Technically coffee doesn't expire, it goes stale. Most packagers give a 1 year shelf life but realistically should be garden compost after six months. Unless it's flavoured, then it doesn't really matter because they probably used stale coffee to begin with. Really most wont tell the difference until they compare a fresh ground and brewed cup to a prepackaged k-cup. Your best bet for fresh product would be to buy direct from the roaster...not an electronics store with a grocery section.

lol, I was thinking the same thing, which is why I avoided ordering.
I thought it was kind of obvious that FS would be selling these at discount for a reason. Caveat emptor rings true yet again.

I will certainly NEVER buy food products from FS.
Again, for $6.50 a box, the rest of the shipment was fine. The ones that expired were "Extra Bold" and after having one last night, they are more like "Breakfast Blend". Wasn't horrible but a tad bitter.

Ordered 16 Boxes online , half of them were expired ( FEB , APRIL , MAY). I went to my local store and they exchange them all without a question. I was also able the change some of the box for my favorite flavor ( Midnight Magic ) , they were out of stock online when ordering. Finally this was the best deal on K-cup so far.

Next time, order for in-store pickup. All 16 boxes I picked up at 2 locations had expiry Oct/Nov 2011. My guess is the stock they have in-store turns over quicker, therefore expiry isn't a problem.
For me, this was a great deal and I will certainly order on-line from FS again.

There is another product mentioned in this thread called the SoloFill (http://www.reunionislandcoffee.com/Solofill-Refillable-Coffee-Filter-For-Keurig-Brew-p/eq5148.htm). Reunion Island Coffee usually has a promo on where you can get a pack of coffee for every SoloFill you buy.
One pro with the SoloFill is not having to remove the K-Cup holder in the machine to use it.
Thanks for the info on the Solofill, I had never heard of it until now and I am getting tired of weak coffee with the "My K-Cup". I ordered 4 @ $14.95 ea from the US site HERE (http://www.solofill.com) to get free shipping, so here's hoping customs won't be too harsh, maybe they are made in USA and the duty won't be charged.
Incidentally, Reunion Island Coffee is not running the free coffee promo right now but they sell them for $19.99 ea + shipping, but free shipping over $39.
Lastly, Bed, Bath & Beyond have them online for $18.99 + $9.50 shipping HERE (http://www.bedbathandbeyond.ca/product.asp?SKU=18199599&)

The lowest i've ever seen them is $90 at crappy tire... I've got the $85 machine from Costco (Mr Coffee brand). Its pretty good and comes with 15 k-cups. I'd pay the extra $5 (if you have a costco membership) just to be able to return the machine to costco if it breaks. Otherwise you are going to be out a coffee maker for a bit while it gets fixed if it breaks. Plus the extra K-cups too.
My family has the $80 CT one, and its pretty good, so I'd say go for it too if you want. I have not seen them any lower anywhere!

This is probably very YMMV, but I went to London Drugs to PM the futureshop deal. The manager was working the customer service till and would happily PM futureshop deal if I wanted, but also offered to give me the 18 pack K-cups at the last sale price LD had them at - which was 2 boxes for $11.99 which works out to around $0.33/cup before tax. I asked if this was an instore special they had or if it was in the flyer. She mentioned that it was in a flyer not long ago (I don't remember seeing it) and that I should be offered this at any LD as long as I'm trying to PM a cheaper price than what's instore (so bring the FS flyer if you can - I had the FS flyer up on my smartphone and that was enough for them). Again, probably very YMMV, so maybe call first to save yourself the trip out there.

just a heads up and time to stock up or buy together with a friend (use RFD's private message for group buy)
sears.ca - as low as $7.92 per box (18) when you buy 11 boxes + free shipping (for a limited time)
they are normally 9.74 per box with $3 shipping/handling per order.
If you use the coupon 941612005 ($20 off $100) and add 11 boxes the total will be 87.14!
that's 87.14 for 11 boxes of 18
so comes up to around $.44 per k cup

It looks like the best deal on K-Cups right now is for teachers at Staples during their Teacher Apprecation days.
You get 15% off and an additional 10% back on the Easy Rewards Card... so at $12.99 regular price you pay $11.04 each, and after the extra 10% you effectively get each box for $9.74.
Details are here: http://www.staples.ca/teachers

Yes, but Costco only has 2 flavours; Timothy's Columbian and Van Houtte's House Blend. With the FS deal, people are able to get a variety of flavours at a similar cost (~$0.54/cup)

It's an in-store deal. I'm not sure about East but it's at every Costco I've been to in the GVR. The two flavours are Timothy's Columbian and Van Houtte's House Blend

Ok, thanks for the info. The only thing with ordering online with FS is you never know what expiry dates the coffee will be. When I was in store, they had many boxes expiring in 1-2 months, so I might give costco a try.

I find that despite checking all these deals, the cheapest way for me to order is directly from Keurig when they have limited time coupons. For example I just placed an order for the $1 off sale and am paying $14.03 per box of 24, and I have a much bigger selection then any of the Canadian stores.

Registration deal covers the brokerage fee however every subsequent order will get charged the $10 brokerage fee.

I usually order at least 12 boxes at a time, so the $10 is not that big a deal breaker for me, and is partially covered by the free sample pack i get for each 6 boxes ordered. As well, if they make a mistake on the order, which happens occasionally, they give you a coupon for free coffee, and this includes the shipping and brokerage fees, so your next order actually has no brokerage fees on it. Until now, they have handled almost all the brands, but i read that they have lost the rights to Timothy's which willl now belong to a Canadian distributor exclusively.

I received my order confirmation from Keurig, I forgot the $1 off so all boxes of 24 are actually $13.02 except for the Wolfgang Puck which are more expensive. They shipped me the wrong box of coffee on my last order so i got the Barrista French Roast free, including the shipping and customs fee on the entire order. The 50% discount on the carousel tower is in exchange for 150 loyalty points(you get 1 point for each k-cup you order). The free samples are 2 boxes for the 12 I ordered, and an extra one they gave me because their system wouldn't take the $1 off the price of the Rodeo Drive. i find it hard to imagine i could find a better price and selection then this, and their customer service always are easy to deal with when problems arise. If you do get a coupon for free coffee, enter it first and then order the most expensive coffee on your list so you don't get charged for that one. The loyalty points are great, I still have 683 so if I want, when i reach 700, I can order an Elite Brewer for $59.97 instead of their list price of $119.97 or many others for a few more points and a bit more money, like the office pro for $64.97, Special edition for $74.97, or the platinum for $89.97. You can also get discounts on water filters and the carousels with the points.

Using my order above, after removing the carousel, the free box of 24 and the free sample pack, I pay about $0.52 per k-cup. If I take into account the value of the loyalty points earned, it brings the cost down to $0.45 per k-cup.

+1 for Keurig.
Even paying the small shipping/duty fee, the price and selection are far superior to any other sites I have ordered from.
I am a fan of ECS Coffee like others have mentioned, but I don't order from them online and only get out their way once and a while.
Don't forget that the initial membership on Keurig entitles you to 10% off and when you get 500+ points, you move up to 15%. It didn't take long to make 500 points, I usually split the order with a family member and made that in 2 or 3 orders.

FYI for those who may have this, my Costco B66 brewer started acting weird. Got it at Christmas 2010, I ran pure distilled water thought it for 3 months until my distiller broke. As of Aug it only dispenses 1/4 cups. Takes 30 seconds to start the brew if it starts are all. Then it works fine for awhile. Tried everything. Unplug it, descaled it etc....I let vinegar sit in the chamber and core for 2-3 days but did not help. Mind you this thing must have made 500+ cups of coffee since then.
Looked on Keurig's web site for help. Nada.
Called Costco for options. They said they have had quite a few that do this. They let me return it and I bought a new B70. Lets see what happens. Since a bought a new one I was able to get the Buy 2 get 2 free from Keurig.

I haven't had any problem with the dating, probably due to their high volume of sales there is a big turnover in their stock. If you do have a problem, call customer service and they will probably give you a coupon for a free box to replace it. I once had a box that the cups exploded in the machine(REVV) and they gave me a credit no problem. Another thing I forgot to mention is that they have a recommend a friend program, you send them your friends info, and if they order a machine directly from them, you and your friend each get 2 free boxes of coffee. Anybody want a machine? PM me and I will contact you, and we can both get free coffee. lol

Yes. Hot Chocolate has the potential to clog. So does the apple cider. They do recommend you run a small sized cup (without a k cup) through to make sure there is no residue. I usually don't run the extra one through and have never had any issues (about 100+ cider, white chocolate, hot chocolate).
And to give my experience with expiry dates. My last order from Keurig was the first week of August and the earliest expiration date I found on my 12 boxes ordered was Feb 15, 2012. 7 months to drink 12 boxes is no problem in my house. This has been my experience with them every time I place an order.

It is in their flyer too, so it wasn't signed, at least not in the store I was in. People were looking kind of funny at me walking out with 8 boxes of coffee. I should have actually got more.
I like light and medium roast coffee's - the breakfast blends by gm and timothy's are good. The nantucket is one of my favorites. The vanhoute house blend is pretty good, but not as good as nantucket. My absolute favorite has been unavailable for a while; Timothy's Kona Blend. It's very similar to the nantucket blend but with a slight slight more kick (boldness?). I've never tried the timothy's italian blend, i'll have to give it a try.

I might have figured out what happened. Looks like I was charged HST on the new flavours that they just added to the website. Probably coded the tax wrong when they added the new products to the website. Called FS to have they correct it. They had to complete a form and escalate the issue. I feel bad for all those other people who purchased these new items and probably didn't realize they were overpaying. I highly doubt FS will automatcially refund all those customers without them calling in...

Those that receive these and don't comply will simply be cut off...

I've had the reusable Keurig filter for 5 years - used it maybe 10 times and not for probably the last three years. Got the solofill about 3 months ago and have used it at least twice a day since. It is SO much better than the Keurig one. Its 'almost' as convenient as a regular kcup. I still use and prefer the regular kcups, but this saves a ton of money and makes good coffee.

Any that bought the Keurig Descaling Solution (http://www.keurig.com/productnotice), contact Keurig right away:
What is the issue?
Some bottles of Keurig® Descaling Solution contain a white, fibrous substance that can clog a brewer and stop it from operating. Preliminary lab results have indicated that some samples of the descaling solution contain a very small amount of common household mold. As a result, we are asking consumers not to use the solution and are providing purchasers with reimbursement and a coupon for any inconvenience.

Do they only have the variety pack for the $40 for 80 approx cups. Or can you get 80 of let's say just one flavor? I think the only flavor I really don't like is the vanilla hazelnut, gave me a headache....Or can you swap some out with another box to mix and match :)

You can't.
You could always buy 80 house blends or either bold columbian or coumbian excellencia (usually only one of the two available).

I might have figured out what happened. Looks like I was charged HST on the new flavours that they just added to the website. Probably coded the tax wrong when they added the new products to the website. Called FS to have they correct it. They had to complete a form and escalate the issue. I feel bad for all those other people who purchased these new items and probably didn't realize they were overpaying. I highly doubt FS will automatcially refund all those customers without them calling in...
Got my $1.69 in HST refunded :evil:. via their "Contact Us" page for orders. Pretty simple!

What pisses me off is that Futureshop would never automatically refund customers money even though they know they overcharged them HST for these times. Many peope won't even notice that they were charged or don't know they are not supposed to be charged tax on this.

The solofill looks great and the price is not bad too $15.00 but I turned away when I saw that cheapest shipping price available is $15.00... Uh no thank you... :(
You can also get the Solofill locally from Bed Bath & Beyond $18.99 www.bedbathandbeyond.ca/product.asp?SKU=18199599&
But you can use their 20% off coupon to lower the price to $15.19. You can also use the Home Outfitters 25% off coupon
(as long as you have their credit card) & get the Solofill for $14.24. BB&B accepts competitors' coupons ;)

IIRC BB&B also sells K-Cups but not sure for how much. It might be worth looking into & using the coupons :)

damn that's a good deal on the ekobrew on ebay. thanks for the link.
i just bought 2 extra's to go on my carousel.
also if anyone is interested maybe we can do a combined large order to save on shipping.
a few of my relatives just got the mini at walmart this weekend and want this as well.
so if anyone else is looking to buy an ekobrew drop me a pm and lets try to save some extra dough.
hopefully ekobrew learns from this and starts to get the ball rolling.

The Apple Cider (got from ECS Coffee, but they don't appear to have it anymore) is incredible.
Incredible.
Green Mountain Natural's Apple Cider. Get it if you can - ridiculously good if you like cider. You might even find it good if you don't like cider.
I need to find another source...
I used to order it from the main US site, really good stuff when you have a cold. But now this and REVV are US addresses only! Have not found a good price at all

There are under the machine drawers which leave your counter space free. The fit 36 individual k-cups. If you're in the GTA you can pick one up at one of the Personal Service Coffee (http://www.personalservicecoffee.ca) showrooms. If not you can look them up online I'm sure you can find them.
I have personally seen 2 different under machine drawers at BB&B. A metal mesh one and a bamboo one.
They looked like:
Mesh: Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Keurig-Storage-Drawer-Coffee-Holder/dp/B004P4TL8E/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1318490792&sr=1-1)
Couldn't find a similar bamboo one on Amazon. Basically it was the same as the mesh one (held the same number of k-cups) except made out of bamboo. Quite nice actually.

London Drugs has 18 pack K-Cups for $39.99 for 4 boxes. This includes the $5.00 off 2 boxes of K-Cups till November (Fall Savings).
$10.00/18 K-Cups = $0.555 per K-Cups
** EDIT: Read the flyer and this price includes the coupon so YMMV for getting another $10 off **
If you can get another $10 at counter this would be super hot.

Did they offer the extra $5 off for every 2 boxes or it was included in the price?
Reading the flyer it says "Coupon book offer" and it's debatable if it that means price includes coupon or there is a coupon available.

Don't check RFD for a couple of days and now of course all the $11 boxes are OOS. Deal still isn't bad on the more expensive boxes at .56cents/per but not worth pulling the trigger.

Saw them at Home Outfitters for $30 yesterday, too. Signup for their newsletter for 10% off. There is an HBC Rewards bonus coupon floating around too.
$30 is regular price though, so you may want to wait for a 20%/25% regular price coupon that they have often or use a competitor coupon, like BB&B, since they accept those, too.
They also have a similar drawer rack that hold more k-cups (but sits beside the machine) for $40. (http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/ultimatechefstore_2180_77346865)

Zellers has a $10 off $50 coupon on their facebook page.
So,
Van Houtte/Timothy's - 12.99 (18 pack) x 4 = $51.96 - $10 = $41.96 for 72 k-cups. That's 0.58 per cup
or
Folgers 18 pack (I really like their Black Silk dark roast) - $11.79 x 5 = $58.95 -$10 = $48.95 for 90 k-cups. That's 0.54 per cup.
Use the Oct HBC points coupons on top if it to sweeten the deal further.

Folgers 18 pack - $11.79 x 5 = $58.95 - $4 = $54.95 -$10 = 44.95 for 90 k-cups. That's $0.50 per cup.

I think the problem is mostly that save.ca will not send you more than one. But here is the fine print that is on my coupon
Limit one coupon per purchase. Good only in Canada on purchase of brand/size indicated. Void where regulated, or prohibited, or if altered, reproduced or transferred. Any other use constitutes fraud. Not to be combined with any other coupon, rebate or offer. Coupon value includes GST/HST and QST, where applicable.
So you cannot stack more than one coupon on a single box. But you may be able to put an order for 6 boxes with 6 coupons and still get the $10 off. I am a rule follower so 1 coupon on the order is what I will go with.

I just went to FS at Station Square and picked up 2 boxes of 18 cups of Timothy's German Chocolate Cake and Timothy's Cinnamon Pastry. The price was scanning as $12.99 but that coffee section is probably the biggest mess of price tags I've ever seen. They honored the incorrect price of $10.97 (wouldnt give it to me for free a la scanning code of conduct but I was in a hurry and no time to argue) and gave me the 2nd box at 50% off (FS promo for this week on K cups) the incorrect price (which I had to remind them as the cashier either forgot or thought I wouldnt have noticed) for a total cost of 44c per cup.
YMMV but historically on products like consumables FS never keeps up to date with their pricing and after I left everyone just went back to work and didnt update the prices. Lots of selection and expiry dates were well into 2012.

Station Square in Burnaby? I was there on Friday and all the dates I looked at were either already expired (May 11!) or about to (Nov 11). Mind you, I was checking mostly the Medium roasts. Stayed away from the Dark/Bold and flavoured, so perhaps that is why.
Robson FS has a much smaller selection but all good 2012 dates.

hey guys just wanted to let you know i got the ekobrew refillable k-cup from ebay and it went smooth.
no taxes, cheap shipping compared to the actual ekobrew website. (2.50 vs 21.50) and it works better then my solofill.
not sure if anyone else bought one but i got mine here.
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230689147572
13.95+2.50 shipping.
much cheaper then the actual ekobrew website.
now i can enjoy the coffee and tea of my choosing without busting out a kettle.
out of all the crap i got in the last 2 weeks this is the cake. so happy that i am not brewing some country style coffee in b60 using this...
ANYWAYS...

I just got mine today as well and the coffee is a lot stronger. My medium roast (my preference is Van Hoot Mexico medium roast beans) is tasting a lot more like a bold. I got mine the old fashioned way of ordering to a US address and then picking up. Anyways after only 1 cup (yes I got it only a few hours ago) I am wishing I had purchased a few more.
Cleanup was what really excited me. I have been using the My Kcup and hating the cleanup each time, I've even got a special kitchen "toothbrush" for brushing the grinds out. The Ekobrew was a quick 2 second rinse and bang, it was clean.
I'll update on my experience with it after a few weeks.

i agree.. i have the mykcup and the solofill and cleanup on the ekobrew was waaayyyy better.
also i find with any of the refillable kcups you gotta try out a few times to see what measurement if grounds is needed for the perfect brew.
for me it's 1 and a half tablespoons to my liking. and for loose tea half of that.
for me the best part was putting the sucker in compared to the mykcup and solofill....i didnt have to remove the k-cup basket and i did not have to play line matchup for the pin like the solofill.
i just lined up the grooves on the side with the kcup basket and bam it fit.
i also noticed the water dispersion after it is done the brew inside ekobrew actually hit all the grounds much better then the solofill and mycup even though both had some patented octoflow or what not.

Yah they must have restocked cuz there were a ton of new boxes. I picked up 2 boxes with expiration in May but I also only picked up the flavored ones so maybe thats why. I didnt check out medium roasts.

What do you mean by "line matchup for the pin like the solofill"? I have been using a solofill for months and I have never lined it up with anything...just fill it with Timmies coffee and drop it in the Keurig machine.

Awww. I was just about to say that. One problem I have discovered (few days XP with the Ekobrew) is that if you are not careful about placement within the black filter basket you will puncture the Ekobrew with the needle inside the black basket. I am kind of anal about doing things right so this doesn't bother me but if you have a slightly more cavalier person (such as my wife) you will find that you break these more often than you would desire.
With receiving mine only a few days ago (I bought a 2 pack), my wife has successfully punctured hers so it will now drip grounds into the coffee cup.
I am still so impressed with the quality of the coffee (and now loose leaf tea) out of these that I am actually planning on buying a second black filter holder and ripping the needle from it so it cannot damage the Ekobrew. Then picking up a few more from Amazon.
Any suggestions for where I can find that part? I found one on eBay but at $30 its a little more than I'd like to spend on a part that should be $10 or less.

Yeah Ekobrew says which versions of the Keurig brewers they work with on their website.
Trolling deep within their website it is mentioned that the B30 has quality control issues at Keurig's end and the size of the holder and whatnot is not always big enough to fit the Ekobrew so they have officially marked it as unsupported. Sometimes you may get lucky but I would suggest trying a "friends" Ekobrew on a B30 before buying to play it safe.

I haven't seen this mentioned yet, but Timothy's online is offering a FREE box of their pumpkin spice K-cups (24) with every order until November 14th!
http://www.timothys.ca/index.php
Quote from the email:
"Also this month, receive a FREE box of Timothy's® Perfectly Pumpkin* with every online order."
I placed an order, and confirmed it! Ordered 1 box of K-cups for $17.45, shipping is $7.95 up to $29.99, and pumpkin spice was added into my cart automatically without a coupon code so $.53/cup. As you order more the shipping goes up, so not as good of a deal, but over $69 shipping is free. Maybe not the best price/cup, but you can get some flavors that aren't as available at other retailers.

I agree with you. ~$13 for 18 cups is a sizeable commitment in terms of storage and money for something you do not know if you like. The t-discs come in small amounts for lower dollar values, maybe Keurig should consider this approach.

How can you make such a statement that it sucks and suggest others not buy it? Just because you don't like light roast doesn't mean others don't! I love light or medium roast and I find dark roast too nasty for my taste. I actually LOVE the Kahlua flavoured k-cups as it's tasty and smells great! I mean people here love the bloody Donut House or Blend but I tried it and it was NASTY to me. You don't see me telling people it sucks yadda yadda.

Go to any Timothy's coffee shop and you can buy single k-cups that they offer. I tried quite a few that way. It's a bit costly at like I think $0.75/k-cup but at least you know if you'll like it before being saddle with a big box of it.

It turns out it doesn't matter. For the deal, you don't have to buy all the same one. So, I ordered:
Van Houtte Original House Blend Decaf Coffee - 18 K-Cup (KU56778)

That said, none of the Timothy's I have ever been to sell k-cups individually. Perhaps at the factory store located in Toronto? You can buy individuals online from ECScoffee
You can also sample for free at ECS.

Has anyone seen any Starbucks or Folgers K-Cups available in Canada yet?
I've seen and purchased the Folgers K-Cups, they seem to be readily available. Two stores I can remember for sure that had them was Safeway and RCSS. I quite enjoyed the Folgers one's actually, black silk and Lively Colombian were good, and the wife enjoyed Vanilla Biscotti. Looks like they have a new "Caramel Drizzle" out too, haven't seen that yet but would be keen to try it. As for Starbucks, I hope they show up in Canada soon! Unfortunately things I am reading online say they are now available in the US but won't be in Canada till next year. Hope they show up for us sooner than that though.
EDIT: It looks like there is a bit on keurig.com about the Starbucks k-cups. They have a list of stores they are available at starting Nov. 1st, but they look to be the US equivalent stores. Worst case though they say the Starbucks k-cups will be available to buy online starting Dec. 27th, so will be able to order them then I guess.

Just found the Green Mountain Coffee and Van Houtte/Timothy's 48ct holiday packs at my local Walmart, ~29.97 a pack. Picked up the Green Mountain pack, includes 16 of each Golden French Toast, Gingerbread, and Spicy Egg Nog. The Van/Tim's pack had 12 of each Winter Carnival (Timothy's), Christmas Blend (Timothy's), White Chocolate Mint (Van Houtte), and Holiday Blend (Van Houtte). Overall, not too bad for seasonal cups at 62 cents a cup. Even cheaper if you know someone with a discount willing to buy them for you.

I've tried it and didn't really enjoy it myself as I felt it didn't have enough of a vanilla taste.
I wish they start making more variety packs so people can try out different flavors.
I buy mine from Caynes now. (Yonge and Doncaster)
They do have a Timothy's variety pack.
And all their 18 pack coffee's are $10.99. Good price if you don't want to go crazy and buy bulk from Costco.
Also, they have a lot of selection.
My favourite now is Green Mountain Dark Magic Extra Bold.
PS They have the Keurig Elite for $115, which is the one I bought.

Don't throw them out ... hide your other K-cups when guests come over and let those poor people take care of them :D

I agree with you. ~$13 for 18 cups is a sizeable commitment in terms of storage and money for something you do not know if you like. The t-discs come in small amounts for lower dollar values, maybe Keurig should consider this approach.
Keurig.com has variety packs and sampler sizes (5 k-cups). They also have way more selection (hundreds and hundreds of varieties). Pricing is also decent if you sign up for a membership. It might be a few cents more per cup, but I think that's worth it to actually get the coffee you want.
Supra7
Nov 9th, 2011, 08:48 PM

Yup, 1 dollar off per box. It might not sound like a lot, but Keurig.com offers the best selection of k-cups. Using the 1 dollar off per box, it's 13.84 per box of 24 (57.7 cents a kcup). If you shopped before at Keurig.com, and are a Platinum member, it will work out to 13.02 a box (54.3 cents a kcup). Factor in that you get a free 5 kcup sampler per 6 boxes you buy, it's a decent deal. You can't find the same k-cup selection anywhere else in Canada (ECS Coffee is close) for that price point.

The only charge I've been hit with (and I ordered twice since I first registered) is $10 so depending on how many boxes you order it doesn't raise the cost prohibitively. Also, Keurig carries flavours that aren't generally available elsewhere (or more difficult to find) so if you want variety Keurig.com is where to find it.

At the moment it appears that the best deal for K-Cups is Costco stores that have stock of various flavours at $39.99 for 80 K-Cups ($0.50 per cup). I was in the Vaughan Costco yesterday and the only ones in stock were the VH Medium House Blend, and a Timothy's Medium blend (rainforest?)
I know that the VH House Blend is also available at the Costco near Yorkdale. Has anyone seen other flavours available in the GTA?
(Website is only selling boxes of 96 cups for $64.99, not nearly as good as the in-store price).

Target in the US. A friend of mine is in florida right now as well and I had told them to check and Target there didn't even have them stocked.
Yeah, pricey alright. I wanted to give them a try, and cheaper than spending nearly $2 at starbucks. But there's enough other flavours that I wouldn't keep spending $1/cup on them. Should be interesting to see pricing after supply increases.

This is inaccurate. Dunkin Donut K-Cups are only available in store. I assume that's part of the deal DD made with Keurig to encourage people into their store to buy other stuff at the same time. It's not a matter of them not shipping DD K cups to Canada, the fact is they don't ship them at all.
As far as the energy laced k-cups part of your sentence, again, incorrect. There are 3 types of "energy" k cups and none of them have any mention of not shipping to Canada. In fact, I have purchased and enjoyed both Revv and Revv pulse from keurig.com.
There is no reason to believe that Starbucks won't ship to Canada from keurig.com, especially with them specifically stating on their site that they will be selling them online starting Dec. 27 (ie. no in store only like DD). It's one of the reasons I changed from Tassimo to Keurig. With Tassimo, Canada gets screwed on all the best kinds offered in other countries, with Keurig everything is available to us, with a much greater range of different options.

Original invoice says $0.00 shipping, and below says that brokerage is included in the cost of shipping. Invoice says $28.xx and the cc charge was $40.xx. Not sure if that answers your question.
BTW, No Frills has $1.50 off Folger's k-cups (12 pack), which brings the cost to $7.49 or $0.62 each. Not a good deal, but figured I'd share anyways.

I haven't been Buffalo shopping in AGES but I was down there yesterday at we stopped in Macy's. My friend had a Macy's coupon for using her Macy's credit card so we managed to save extra on the existing sale prices (was around $12 a box of 16/18 originally that was a sale price but saved an extra $4 or so a box with the coupon).
Anyway, the starbucks was priced different and i think the regular price was around $15 for a box of 18... I don't have the receipt so I can't confirm but they did have a Sumatra dark and a house medium roast. I went to Topp's as well (big one on transat road) and I didn't see any Starbucks there yet. Didn't get a chance to go to the Walmart.

The Van Houtte House Blend Medium decaf is not bad, but the Timothy's Columbian decaf is better. It's not a bold or striking taste, but very reasonable as an everyday coffee.
However, the Green Mountain Hot Cocoa is awful. It has some sort of plasticky or chemical taste. I'm gonna have to throw away the rest of the box.

There are coupons on the coupon board at Real Canadian Superstore in Orleans for 1.50 off Folgers Gourmet Selections K-Cup Portion Packs. These coupons can be used at Loblaw Companies (No frills, Loblaws, RCSS, and Your Independant Grocer). It is only good until December 2 and it cannot be combined with other coupons. I think the Biscotti package is 8.99 for 12 k-cups. After using the coupon, it would be .62 for a pack. But I am keeping my eyes open for a sale on these that I can price match at RCSS and then use the coupon.

Thank you for registering your Keurig® brewer at Keurig.com! Since this is one of the first THREE brewers you have registered, you have been issued a coupon for 2 Free K-Cup® boxes (22,24,25 count), when you purchase 2 K-Cup® boxes. This may be redeemed only at www.keurig.com.
one thing confuses me is which kind of box should I order?
it's a VERY good deal! You can order any boxes. When you add 4 boxes, the lowest priced two will be reduced to $0.

please. the coffee is hot enough. since the heating time is fixed, the colder the water you add, the colder the final product, so maybe these people are adding ice cold water.
the mr.coffee is the highest quality k-cup machine I've seen, and has the best reviews I've seen. the PROBLEM is it has no features. it makes a cup of coffee and that is IT. not 2 cups, not on a timer, not from a reservoir.
so if you NEED the features it is missing, then it is not for you. but if all you want is a cup of coffee, then it is the best.

It's fine, it's basically due to the size of the brew the cup (~250ml) takes a lot of the heat away within the first 5 min.
With the bigger machines you brew a bigger size so it seems the heat loss is less, it's just there's more liquid to keep it hot.

Didn't see it mentioned here, but was posted on Van Houtte's facebook page. New variety pack. 36 count, includes 6 of each: Timothy's Columbian Excelencia, Timothy's Breakfast Blend, Van Houtte Original House Blend, Van Houtte Vanilla Hazelnut, Green Mountain Coffee Nantucket Blend, and Tully's Italian Roast.
Haven't seen them around here as of yet, however, Van Houtte claims they're available in major grocery stores.

That's smart - I wish I had a $25 off 75 coupon, I only ever get $15 off 100 lol.
Another thing I realized you can do if you purchased anything at home outfitters in the past weeks and got the $20 off $50. Buy 4 boxes/18 @ 13.49 (I think..?) each = $53.49 - $20 = $33.96 or $0.47 each.

You can contact Keurig (either via email or phone). The CSRs are usually quite reasonable and would potentially send you new packs for free. I remember last year when people ordered and didn't receive their order on time, Keurig sent those people free coffee packs. They have also messed up one of my boxes (sent the wrong flavour) and they sent me a free box and I get to keep the wrong flavoured one as well.

Sorry but I have to vent off my anger.
This whole cup craze is BS! I fell in it as well, had bought myself a Keurig B60 for 95.99$ with a ekobrew refillable cup. Sorry but it tasted like ****, I could taste the cheap plastic innards of the machine + with a flat watery coffee taste, not to mention I have to put in more coffee for 1 cup than I would for 4 people in a french press, and still tasted like crap and felt cheated for wasting so much quality beans.
I tried the cups, sure some of them were so so, but most them all tasted like Folgers crystal crap in the end. On top of it, refilling a cup with ground coffee is more a chore than doing everything manually with french press/grinder, too much time and effort for a single cup of ****ing coffee!
After less than week I returned it, I stay old school and enjoy real coffee cheaper and tastier than this high profit margin crap that these companies are selling nowadays, all thanks to Nesspresso *******s!

*shrug*
To each their own ... personally for me I've found Keurig to be a godsend. I love the fact that every Kcup I make is guaranteed to be fresh. I love the convenience of a single cup maker combined with the ease of making a cup in under 2 minutes combined with the excitement of selecting new flavours ...
Personally I'm busy in the morning and don't mind paying a premium to get gourmet coffee quick, fresh and fast. Since buying my Keurig I've cut out daily cups of Tim Horton's/Starbucks/Second Cup/etc completely, and by shopping smart (buying k-cups in bulk) my savings are even better.
Sure it's never going to be as cheap as regular grind, but for me it makes my life easier, tastes fresher and better (in my opinion) and is therefore worth the extra cost to me.

Still undecided whether this is a real story or simply trying to stir the pot.
I see no point in buying a Keurig machine to use with an ekobrew. The ekobrew is great when you want to use your own coffee on occassion but the selling feature of the machine is fast coffee. If you buy quality beans you shouldn't be using a keurig. For me Keurig replaces the trip to starbucks on the way in to work. While many of the cofees are too weak or wattery, none of them taste like folgers crystals. All of them are real filtered coffee.
In the Keurig world, unless you like weak coffee (i.e. Tims) the more grams of coffee that are shoved into the k-cup, the better it is (subjective of course). The regular coffees have the least amount of grams, followed by extra bold, starbucks (US only), travel mug (phased out), iced coffees and barista prima coffees. My favourite coffees for the machine are Nantucket Blend Iced Coffee (drink it hot - just like the regular Nantucket blend but much stronger) and the barista prima varieties.

Folgers is lower end coffee brand so that explains the price difference on the 12 count packs. There will be no price wars unless and until someone gets around the Kueirg portfolio of patents with mass production of a high quality alternative.

Glad you liked it because I bit when I saw it at our Walmart and absolutely hated 2 of the 3 flavours - terrible taste and even worse after taste. :(
Surprisingly (to me) the French Toast was ok but man, the other two... blech. Frustrating waste of $30.

Well, that would be the reason for this thread, no? Best price I found so far was $8.99/24 box - - about .37 each. If you are a 2 pot a day drinker, then a Keurig is not for you. If you are a 2 cup a day drinker, then that's a different story.

You misunderstand....I wanna know where Keurig and Tassimmo get off charging that much? Obviously it's working,it just amazes me. I guess I'd put this right in there with buying popcorn and candy at the movies @ extortionate prices...and there being no shortage of "willing victims"

Yep they charge what the traffic will bear.
There's a whole continuum of cost vs. convenience. Further along towards the convenience end you will find coffee shops. They're even more expensive per cup. Are you also amazed at how much they charge?
The cheapest way would be to move to the tropics (cost of living is lower there too - extra bonus :) ), grow and roast your own coffee beans. However that solution isn't quite as convenient.

Very good question. I opened one up that I didn't mind sacrificing :D (Kahlua) and weighed the coffee on my reloading scale. It contained 10.43 grams. So there would be 454 / 10.43 = about 43 regular strength K-cups in a pound.
Theoretically the "extra bold" cups are supposed to have a bit more coffee.

How many grams of ground coffee are in each K-cup?.... I'm wondering what the price per pound is.......anyone?Between 10-14gr per cup depending on the variety.
K-Cups is the old razor blade/razor scenario, have you seen the prices of the mach 5 lately? I have to admit the pro glide is pretty smooth.
Convenience is the big selling feature with these, some are willing to pay for it. What I don't understand are those that buy this knowing that the ppc is so high and still buy one because the brewer is on "sale". Even at $50 for the POS Mr Coffee brewer, it's still $25 more than anyone probably ever paid for a brewer before this phenomenon.
If anyone is truly concerned on the ppc they should research their options, there are less expensive alternatives.

You misunderstand....I wanna know where Keurig and Tassimmo get off charging that much? Obviously it's working,it just amazes me. I guess I'd put this right in there with buying popcorn and candy at the movies @ extortionate prices...and there being no shortage of "willing victims"
I find your post offensive and very narrow minded. What do you mean how can Keurig charge so much? How can Hermes, LV, Burberry, Prada, Vera Wang, Tiffany, Cartier etc. charge a lot? They charge what people are willing to pay. How are we a victim because we like our k-cups? Just because you cannot bear the market price does not mean others can't or won't. I personally will pay the samll premium for convenience and less waste. Time is something I value as I rather spend my time doing other things that I consider more productive then wait for my coffee and not many of us drink 2 pot a day either.
You remind me a lot like those SC ladies that do the most complaining when people spend money on things they enjoy. Just like the recent Canada Goose bashing. So judgemental and unwilling to look at things from another viewpoint.

You can add inkjet printers/ink to this kind of marketing model......
Thanks for quick reply(s) on the K-Cup coffee weight....so the cost per pound is somewhere around $20-$22 (based on about .50/kcup) depending on the flavour....thanks...
PS. Not bashing, just researching....

Hermes,Tiffany, Ferrari offer "status"(real or imagined).....for a price........Keurig too???.....it's coffee for g0ds sake.....

Wow 6.50? That's cheap for k-cups ... will definitely check out my Sobey's tomorrow.
Do not buy these.
I was shopping there tonight, and the Sobey's brand is actually the Grove Square knock-off K-Cups (made by Sturm Foods) that uses instant coffee. One of the worst reviewed products I have ever seen on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Grove-Square-Coffee-Brewers-24-Count/dp/B004H3SI14/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1322880407&sr=8-15 Most 1 star ratings I have ever seen.
Ingredients are instant coffee, natural flavours and some yeast compound. Currently in a law suit with Keurig.

It's all about convenience for me. You have to understand that I was a 2 cups of Tim Horton's a day guy .... Now I'm a 0 cups of Tim Horton's a day guy and instead a 2 cups of Green Mountain Hazelnut a day guy. Tim Horton's cost me 1.40 a cup. Green Mountain Hazelnut costs me approx 50 cents a cup (or less).
So that's where my logic is. I like the taste of K cups better than brewing my own coffee as well ...

Edit: if memory serves, it tastes like a stronger van houtte kenya, which itself tastes nothing like green mountain kenyan AA, FYI. to me it tastes like coffee, whereas a lot of the others taste weak. it is not as strong as the french roast types like dark magic, which I describe as tasting burnt. it does not have the same type of taste as the timothy's columbian, which I would begin to describe as more sweet and with a totally different flavor.

IMHO the best deals on K-cups (from a Canadian supplier) by far is still here: http://www.ecscoffee.com/retail-store.html in Burlington. The bulk packs of 50 run 26.99 .. very good deal.
My wife and I make special trips out to Burlington to get our coffee here. Massive selection and dirt cheap prices.
Are the prices the same online, any idea? If not I'll have to take a trip down to burlington one day.
edit: Keurig finally charged my cc (got my order 2 weeks ago), it was originally auth'd for $41.xx when I placed the order, then they only charged $30.xx. Not a bad deal for 4 boxes of k-cups - about $0.32 each!!

Search the thread, I believe there was a brief discussion on them a little while ago.
I didn't hear good things about the Mr. Coffe mini - how do you like it so far, and how much was it?

I dropped in on ECS in Burlington today. They were very busy with holiday shoppers, and had some great deals:
Timothy's Decaf 24pk for $9.99 (sold out now, more coming on Wednesday) (41.6c/cup - best. price. ever.)
VH House Blend 24pk for $10.99 (45.8c/cup - wow)
http://www.ecscoffee.com/
They also have Apple Cider K-cups (although I find them to be a bit expensive at $22 for a 24pk) and lots of other stuff.
Rumour has it that a big shipment coming on Wednesday will have some things that y'all are waiting for.
I also stopped at Costco on the way home, and they have 80pks for $40. At 50c/cup this is the best regular price I've seen for K-cups anywhere.
What I don't understand is why doesn't the Costco website have a similar deal. All they have on the website is a 96pk for $64.99, which is way overpriced at nearly 68c/cup.

I had posted a few weeks back about them briefly... I'm in the US right now and I saw different types at target - house blend, pike place, and Sumatra. They were all $14.99 for a 16 pack.

+1 for ECS. Excellent selection and great prices too. And a bonus that they have machines lined up so you can pick a kcup off the shelf and try it for the taste before buying.

Likely because the Starbucks K-Cups will not be available in Canada until February.
Picked up PIkes and House Blend when I was visiting in the US. Of the two, I prefer the house blend.

Did you happen to see any of the Gloria Jeans Hazelnut K-Cups there? (it's OOS on the website.)

For anyone in the Burlington area, ECS Coffee has a "capsule recovery program". Return your used K-cups to them and for every 35 gallon bin they fill, they'll plant 4 trees.

Wait a minute, you put foldgers in used k-cups? So what... you take the top seal off and just spoon in the foldgers? Are you using instant??

How do you reseal the k-cup? The pressure of the water shooting through the top creates a heck of a mess whenever I get a new k-cup that wasn't sealed at properly at the factory.
Also, what do you use for the internal paper filter? Do you re-use the one that it came with or replace it with something?

I don't know if this is what the poster does but I have tried this before. Open up k-cup and rinse out all the grinds. Fill with new coffee. Place aluminum foil as tight as possible over the top. Place elastic band around foil to seal it as best as you can. Brew and enjoy. You may get some leakage where the needle pierces but nothing too bad. You can also buy special reusible caps that will give you a perfect seal.
Anyone else try the new KiennaKUP? Its a holder designed to hold non-proprietary paperpods (like those sold by Kienna and by Reunion Island) for use in a Keurig machine. http://www.kienna.com/kup.html Tried it with various sized pods at 7.25 ounce setting on my B60.
10 gram Reunion Island Privateer Dark Pod worked well in the KiennaKUP
9.5 gram Kienna Swiss Water Decaf Pod worked well in the KiennaKUP
Coffee was way too weak on 7.25 ounce setting with some of Kienna's smaller 8-9 gram pods I tried.
Reunion Island 12 gram French Roast pod in the KiennaKUP caused the pump to stall on my B60.
The product is not bad. But, most of the easy to find Kienna Pods are too small to make anything over a 5.25 ounce coffee so I recommend its use with the bigger 10 gram pods.
