Keurig Single Serve Coffee Maker For College

!±8± Keurig Single Serve Coffee Maker For College

Being a school teacher has its perks. One of them is getting the inside scoop on what kids are into.

So when one of the parents told me she was getting a Keurig single serve coffee maker for her college daughter, a light went off in my head. It occurred to me that students, both high school and college age students, are drinking more and more coffee. That certainly was not true in the past.

When I was in college, very few students were drinking coffee. Now, they are connoisseurs of the stuff. I guess I should have taken notice when our high school yearbook had a coffee theme two years ago. Kids are showing up every morning with their Starbucks, Carribou, and Java Joe to-go cups clutched in one hand as they try to carry the books in the other hand.

We have had a Keurig single serve coffee maker in the room behind the media center. That's where I learned the benefits of this amazing machine.

Yes, the k-cups do cost more than the coffee you make from a bag of regular coffee purchased at a grocery store, but there is no comparison in coffee quality.

I order my favorite k-cups online and save money there, but they still cost more. But I can't put a price tag on the flavor. It is great... every time.

So my friend is telling me about the Keurig coffee maker her daughter has at college. The girl was telling her mom how wonderful the machine is because they don't have a kitchen at college. There is no clean up, no mess, and they can brew one cup and take off for class without looking back.

This really works for the kids because they are on a bit of a tighter budget while at school. They used to pay 3-4 bucks for their morning "Joe" while in high school. Now they are actually saving money by brewing their own. It is a win-win setup for students and parents. The students are getting their coffee and the parents are saving 0 or more each month.

As a parent, you can even put a Keurig single serve coffee maker bug in Grandma's ear. The grandparents are always trying to help out or buy things for their grandchildren, and this would really give them some "trend status" in the eyes of their grandkids.

What's on your counter? You really don't have to be a college student to enjoy a Keurig single serve coffee maker.
