I am loving the convenience of my Tassimo single serve beverage brewing system!!! I have no idea why I am so late in the game on these gadgets.. it's just as if I woke one day thinking that I would really like one of those and then spent time researching the difference between the brands and finally watching & bidding. It is a little indulgent... but cheaper than going to star bucks.
It bugs me a tad that the Keurig K cups are everywhere and yet the T discs take a little more work to find. That is one thing the Keurig has going for it, while the Tassimo gets bragging rights to being able to make excellent lattes with the shelf stable milk discs. According to the Tassimo website Target, walmart, lowes, best buy and bed, bath & beyond are the local stores in my area who carry T discs. Walmart had only two types of plain coffee.. but they had the best price, Target had about the same selection, none were available at lowes or best buy, bed, bath & beyond had every online flavor of T disc available . I was able to get a 20% of coupon to use in store. Bed, Bath & Beyond also offers free shipping and I got 20% off my online order. The nearest Bed bath & beyond is not very close.. not as simple as running to the corner store, however it is somewhat near my office so It won't be a problem to run in and stock up. I will prolly continue to shop online since they offer free shipping.
I wish Tassimo sold a sampler pack of coffees so that you can try different flavors before committing to purchase and whole box. I have tried the cappuccino, earl grey hot tea, Peach iced tea, Mastro lorenzo crema and finally my favorite the Chai latte. I am waiting on my order of Gevaila caramel macchiato and French Vanilla coffee to arrive. The Iced tea was $7.99 for a box of 16 discs.. so 50 cents each. The lattes are more like $1.00 each.
I figured if I did not like the Machine I would re-sell it on ebay... but it's a keeper.
