Amazon.
Fake Keurig pods. $.50 each.
The Bailey's Irish Cream adds a little.

We use the Nespresso brand and those "pods" run about $1.50 per cup on average. Pretty much just a cup a day drinker,maybe 2 on weekends.

Like $3.50 ish for the espresso grind from Aldi. Think it’s a 10 pounce package. I use it in my moka pot. Which makes amazing coffee.
I use the Folgers black silk for the regular maker. Half a pot goes in my cup. And a few cups made with the moka pot.
All the pod things are too expensive for the convenience that they offer. And I’ve not had any that were all that tasty.
The key with any coffee is filtered water.
But yeah, it’s getting high as balls on a giraffe. I accept it, as there isn’t poop I can do about it, and I’m going to have my morning coffee. It’s cheaper than catching charges for throttling someone.

I will second the Aldis expresso grind, looks like a Bustello package, 2 scoops and you got a good pot of coffee, it is under $3.50 at our Aldis, 30oz for like $10.
Sign up for WOOT! and they will have some form of cheap kcups if you are quick on the trigger

Two double espressos go into my 16oz Cafe con Leche in the morning and I have two of those just about every day. Then another double black around 3:00pm about 3-4 times a week.
I get Yaucono dark roast whole beans from Amazon on a schedule in 2 lbs bags. My wife and my MIL drink some crap out of Keurig pods. Don’t know what it is.

I’ve been getting my pods from Ollies. Last I bought was 60 pods of Green Mountain for $24.99.
Just got a 94 Ct box of McDonald’s decaf for $40 from Sam’s.

Costco has kureg by green mountain pacific bold (almost dark roast)which is $45 for 120. I was drinking it but it took about 4 to 5 to get adequately caffeinated. I dont like all the plastic and i dont like the idea of throwing 35 - 50 spent rounds a week in the trash.
I have a Coffee Gator stainless steel double walled press it takes 8 tablespoons for 2 tall boys but it extracts every microgram of caffeine so 2 large is a decent buzz. Thats about 10oz of Don Francisco medium roast a week. I went to medium roast columbian because the caffeine content is higher and its not burned in the roaster.

Ps. It's cheaper than that when you put it on Amazon scheduled delivery and they send it in 12 packs.

LLave has been another one of my go-tos for years. I think Linefinder was a fan.

Side note, moka pots are awesome. This knock off from Jeff’s World of Crap works awesome and makes a fantastic cup of espresso, which snobs will be say “well it’s not real espresso because it’s not under pressure blah blah blah.”
You can call it black dog **** water for all I care, it’s freaking good stuff. No extra filters needed, just add water and ground up magic beans.

I definitely agree! Specially when the water comes from snow still on the ground in late June

I bought a bag for the big percolator at deer camp, I liked it, blended well with some Merry's Irish Cream.
