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!)

    My current morning coffee routine is I make 1 pot of Dunkin Dounuts French Vanilla or Cinnamon Swirl coffee and a half pot at lunch when i go home.

  6. Anna says

    I drag until I get to work to get some coffee from the machine there, its free and already made but it tastes TERRIBLE.

  7. Jennifer Carter says

    This is my third day making a comment. I made starbucks coffee this morning using a regular coffee pot.

  12. claudia says

    I love a chai from starbucks, but since I’m frugal I usually just use my black and decker at home, with whatever caffeine is on sale.

  16. Renee says

    I just have plain coffee at home in a cheap 10 cup maker. My FIL had to buy a new one since I only had a one cup maker. I have heard great reviews on this one. I would love waking up to freshly made coffee. I love to doctor my coffee up to make them like Starbucks.

  19. ellen says

    I make a pot of maxwell house every morning before going on line to find a job.

  20. Jennifer N. says

    I make 10 cups every night and set the timer to go off before we get up. It is great to smell coffee brewing as you wake up! I would so love this coffee maker; so many options 🙂

  21. Betty says

    This would be the best gift ever!! I wouldn’t have to stop at DD then rush to get to work 🙂

  22. Mary STanton says

    I love my coffee made with the Hazelnut flavored dry powder. I love it more than getting coffee out at DD or Starbucks. I would love to try this machine. It looks like it would be so easy and I could use that since I retired a few years ago but have to be at my daughters at 7 every morning to sit for her childrenb. I definitely need my morning fix before I start my day with grandchildren. Hope to win it!!

  25. Kristi C says

    I start my day with a very large cup of Starbucks coffee that I make at home. Of course, I have to have a few more as the day goes on.

  33. Tina says

    4th day entry, skipped the coffee today and had a passion tea from Starbucks. Change is good sometimes I guess.

  34. cjs says

    I make my coffee in my own Keurig – and at approx. 32 cents a cup – it is TOTALLY worth it! If I win, this would make a FANTASTIC gift for my dad for Father’s Day, since he loves coffee in the am!

  37. Leigh Ann Kiendl says

    I use a french press every morning for my coffee. It only makes about 2-3 cups which is perfect for me and my husband. It also tastes great compared to our old coffee maker. Thank you for the chance to win such a wonderful prize!

  42. Felicia says

    I can’t because I don’t have a coffee maker. 🙁 Hubby buys his for a quarter at work, LOL We need this!!! 🙂

  43. Jamie Baker says

    This is my second day entering. I make coffee in the morning using my regular coffee maker. I drink whatever is on sale that month! I would love one of these coffee machines to treat myself!

  44. Nicole says

    I really want this machine! I would be so excited to win it! I love coffee!

  45. Jennifer Carter says

    4th day of making an entry. Made coffee in the coffee pot. Would love to try the Keurig. We just had newborn twins and this coffee pot would be great to be able to quickly have a cup of coffee when needed.

  46. Teresa T says

    My husband makes coffee each morning so that when I get up it is hot and ready.

  48. Ellen C. says

    I brew a pot each morning for us. I take a lot of cream and sugar in mine. Thanks for the chance.
