Love my Keurig. Thanks for sharing!
@DaveInSoCal Thank mikemark8808 of slickdeals too!
TL;DR-- $119 worth of Keurig for $59 today only with coupon code GMA2015
Thank you, @connorbush, for posting this. I bought one.
@Barney Me too! It is the older one; however, it is known to be a beast. I think my mom has had this through years of daily use (3 or so years of heavy workloads).
@connorbush I love hot chocolate!
I'd stay away from Keurig for now at least

@Foxborn Stay away from Keurig 2.0 systems- annoying DRM(lockout mechanism) for the coffee pods, but I think Keurig 1.0 systems should be good- there's a large ecosystem that's unlikely to go away.
@Foxborn I only want some hot chocolate :(
@Foxborn that is why this is a rad deal. forget keurig vue and 2.0 keurig 1.0 and off brand pods for the win!!!
@Foxborn 78% offer premium for a sagging company, wow.
Seems like these companies attempting to control the market (coffee, beer, etc...) are placing expensive bets that fickle consumers won't rebel when the companies start charging a premium for the products in markets they thought they controlled.
Makes for a great opportunity for deep pocket challengers from outside these industries enter and eat their lunch.
Not strictly a deal, but if you've only been buying boxes of K-Cups, it certainly is: One Cup Joe- buy K-cup singles in a huge range of flavors & varieties.
Would definitely go for this if I didn't already have 2 free ones. Got mine a few years ago from Bed, Bath & Beyond. Went on the fritz about 2 weeks later. Called Keurig, they pronounced it DOA and sent me another gratis. Not just wanting to throw away the first one (which is what Keurig suggested), I took it back to BB&B. They insisted I get my money back. Free Keurig!
A month later the replacement started acting wonky. Keurig again chose to replace it. While that was in-flight, the other one started working again. I'm still using that one and have new, spare ready to go when called upon.
2 free Keurigs is a pretty good deal, right?
@ACraigL Haha, the exact same thing happened to me, but with Kohls. I sold one off, and brought the other one to work.
A CHALLENGER APPEARS
@Lotsofgoats How much coffee is in "$75 worth of pods"? If that's overpriced MSRP value, it may not be much. But yes, seems like a decent deal for sure if you're into espresso at home.
@ACraigL even if that's only really $40-50 worth of pods it's a good deal
@Lotsofgoats I like this --LOVE this product BUT I would not entirely call it a challenger. I think these two are mutually exclusive and have unique use cases. I am saying, I have a problem and might just buy BOTH !!!! MOE MOAR MOAR AMEIRICAN BUYBUY BUY!!!
I gotta kitchen essentials one cup coffeemaker from big lots for $12 a year ago and it makes great coffee from turkish grind Jacobs coffee. No pod, no defeating controls just at water one measure of grounds and press the button.-
THERE'S NO TIME TO EXPLAIN IN A NEW THREAD HERE'S ANOTHER DEAL THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH COFFEE ALSO IT'S >>>FREE<<< ALSO BB8 IS THE REAL MVP
BOOP
@Lotsofgoats It's also sold out. :(
@ACraigL damn see there was even less time than I thought, sorry guise
@Lotsofgoats No worries, appreciate the attempt. :)
@Lotsofgoats processing. sold out while I was processing.
@Lotsofgoats It keeps going in and out of stock. I just got a BB-8! :)
@ACraigL ayyyyy I'm team BB8 too, cute little bugger
I get as far as the cart and it crashes every time I go to checkout - they each go in and out of stock . . . Now when checking out (no matter which is in my cart) I get "An error occurred while processing your purchase. Please try again later."
Finally scored one on another Google Play account - woohoo!
Thanks, @Lotsofgoats!
Just scored another (different one) on a separate Google account. Figured out the issue - if you get to the cart and get kicked, Google sets a cookie that makes the system think you've already ordered if you have gotten so far as to have seen the checkout page. If you don't want to clear the cookies in your browser, use a different one. Hit the page and press F5 like mad just like you do every night on Meh at rollover and eventually you'll get one. If you need to, update your payment and shipping preferences at play.google.com prior to trying to checking out, because if you take too long in the cart, you're screwed and you have to clear your cookies and start all over again, refreshing the page like mad.
I've been using a Cuisinart SS-700 K-cup machine for several years and it's worked great. I've lately been seeing refurbs of that model on sale for $60.
