The winner was AnnMarie via comment contest random selection.  If I do not hear from her by Sunday I will select an alternate winner.

AnnMarie says I”ve tried this coffee before at my friend’s house and it was excellent. Ever since, I have wanted this coffee maker, but something else always comes up. I love flavored coffees but my husband doesn’t. How awesome it would be to own something like this!!!!!

I have a fantastic giveaway in honor of Mother’s Day and I can’t wait to see who wins this baby!

I recently got the chance to check out the Keurig Special Edition Brewing System and Keurig was kind enough to give a brewing system to one lucky MFA reader.

I had heard so many raves about the Keurig machines that I couldn’t wait to check it out.   I happen to love coffee.  I am one of those people that sings the Folger’s song every morning..“the best part of waking up..is coffee in my cup!” And I have had a Tassimo machine for awhile which I adore.

Now I am not going to tell you that these coffeemakers are frugal.  This Special Edition coffeemaker is currently $150 on Amazon.  You also need to buy the K-Cups which go on sale for $15 for 48 cups.

If you can fit this into your budget I have to tell you these machines just make wonderful cups of coffee.  I ran out of Tassimo disks a few weeks ago and went back to my regular old pot coffee and the difference was astounding.

For me the major advantage to the Tassimo is that you can make espresso beverages.  So I can make cappuccinos, Chai Lattes, Caramel Macchiatos etc.. in addition to regular coffee and teas.

But what I noticed about the Keurig is that it is much sleeker looking on the counter.  Also it seems to me that the Keurig K-cups are much less expensive than the Tassimo Disks.  I think for those that just love really good coffee or tea the Keurig is a great answer. One other advantage to the Keurig is that you can buy the reusable filter and grind and brew your own coffee- which might be a little less expensive.

One other thing I just love about these machines is how neat and clean they are.  I have to refill the water about once a week (more for the Tassimo) and then just pop the cartridge in and done!  For some reason actually brewing a pot of coffee always used to seem like such a massive production first thing in the morning.

So here is your chance to get your hands on this awesome machine!

1. How do you make your coffee everyday?  I start the morning with a cup of Gevalia(Tassimo) or Green Mountain (Keurig) and then move onto a Chai Latte or Caramel Macchiato in the afternoon.  Before I started my frugal adventure I used to hit Starbucks twice a day (yikes!)

If you would like extra entries- you can do this once per day- just be sure to leave a comment letting me know you did!

    I use a traditional coffee pot but have tried this at my doctors office and it makes amazing coffee. This is my second day of comments.

  3. Kim says

    C – O – F – F – E – E PLEASE!!! I would love a chance to win one of these. I have always wanted one.

  4. Anne says

    My dad would absolutely love this. My mom doesn’t drink coffee but he does, so she hates the mess from his machine. This would be perfect for them!

  8. Jill Coffey says

    I stop and get my coffee at the local gas station every morning. The employees there know me because I’m there every morning so they usually give it to me. I would enjoy a Nice new coffee pot though.

  11. Sarah says

    I have a small 4 -cup – who knows what brand coffee maker. Just regular old coffee.. whichever brand I got on sale w/coupons. I’m not picky I just need some caffiene!!

    It would be SO awesome to have this technology! !LOL!

  12. sandy k says

    I am not human with coffee in the mornings. I love the flavored coffees and husband doesn’t. I have been looking and wishing for one of these.

  13. Kori says

    My husband drinks all kinds of different coffees. I drink Starbucks occasionally as a special treat – trying to cut back!

  14. Renee says

    I LIVE on cofee, I have 2 children, a boy age 5 and a little girl age 7 mos..and I work full time! I have been wanting one of these as I am a daily coffee drinker 🙂 Thanks!!

  18. mindy says

    i only have time for instant and throughout the day grab wherever i can thank

  20. Sandra K321 says

    I make my morning and mid-morning coffee using my Keurig, usually Donut Shop Coffee from Coffee People. My son loves my Keurig and I would love to win this one to give to him as a graduation present.

  21. Tara P. says

    I start my day off with office coffee… not the best. If I won this Keurig Brewing System, I would have time to start my day off with a great cup of coffee!

  22. Julie Schultz says

    Love my coffee in the morning, and throughout the day! Would love to try one of these!

  24. Carol says

    I have an ancient 10-cup coffeemaker and make 4 cups in it, have two in the morning, 1 each in the afternoon and evening. I sooooo want to win!

  26. Valerie C. says

    I have a Krups drip coffeemaker with thermal carafe….I’d love to have a Keurig. Even with the thermal carafe, the coffee has a bad taste after less than an hour and the cleanup is messy. I love flavored coffee and Keurig has SO many flavors. Thanks 🙂

  28. Rachel says

    I make my coffee with Seattle’s Best and like to add International Delight flavorings…yum!!

  34. Rachel P. says

    I grind my Eight O’Clock coffee beans every night, and add them to my coffee maker which is auto-programmed to start at 5:20 the following morning. I’ve found that the key to making sure I don’t hit the drive-thru in the morning is to take care of the process at night! My husband and I both drink coffee and he has been wanting a Keurig for the past couple years.

  35. Tabitha says

    I make my coffee with a individual drip coffee cup and filter. I’d love to have Keurig to use instead!

  37. Becca says

    My second entry here and still steaming up cowboy coffee the good old-fashioned way!

  38. Tina says

    My 3rd entry, and this would make a great present because today is my birthday!
    No coffee for me today, and I don’t even know why.

  40. Whit says

    Oops..posted it on my husbands facebook…hahaha. That counts too right?! 🙂

  41. Jamie in WPA says

    I would love to surprise my husband with one of these! We would both enjoy it but he would love it!

  43. Kellie Paris says

    I have wanted one of these ever since they can out but wouldn’t splurge. So I have stuck with my trusty old Mr. Coffee. With a baby boy due any minute now, I’m gonna need it!

  45. Amanda S says

    My husband just took all the coffee again, and I’m leaving in 30 min. Granted, there are 5 starbucks where I’m going, but to make one cup right now and not pay $1.50 for it would be wonderful.

  46. Arie says

    I preset my coffee machine to make 8 cups of french vanilla (whatever brand is on sale) coffee… problem is – I end up going to the gym, taking a shower, cleaning the house, doing dishes etc before I leave for work and usually FORGET my coffee, until I sit at my desk and realize I don’t have it.

    If I had a keurig brewing system, I could make it on the go and bring it with me.

    Perhaps I’d be less of a monster that way too 😉

    Thanks for the chance!

  49. Tracy says

    I drink a free Intelligentsia iced coffee each morning from work. Not always my fave, but it’s free and does the trick!

  50. Debbie says

    Our “good” coffee maker broke so I had to buy a $10 from a discount store. It’s tying us over till we can get a good one again. My husband is the one who prepares it every morning and does a great job (not to mention, he brings me my coffee to me in bed each and every morning!:)
