Think about it!

We found this infograph just browsing the interwebs. We can't personally vouch for the quality of the coffee from the coffee bean direct people in particular, but they sure do have a great point!! This is something we've been trying to help people to understand. K-Cups are NOT good value, or even good coffee! Here is why: The K-Cup Debate infographic
From: Coffee Bean Direct Our coffee here in store is freshly roasted on demand, ready for brewing in less than a day, and always easy to make. It costs around $8 a pound and is very high quality 100% Arabica. Compare that to coffee thats been sitting in a little plastic cup on the store shelves for months. You'll taste the difference! -MCS
