Do K-Cups save you money? Yes it can.

  One typical analysis, comparing Top brand K-Cups versus ground coffee, showed that the per-cup cost was 66¢ versus 28¢ for the standard drip. If you make three cups a day, 365 days a year, that adds up to around $723 spent on K-Cups, versus $307 for regular coffee brewers. So you’d easily save $400 a year by going the old-fashioned route. Or do you?

  Keep in mind that is for the top of the line K-cup branded coffee. If you go with say a Maxwell House or Folgers quality the cost difference drops. Go with a store brand K-Cup and the cost difference disappears to almost zero. With perhaps even a small savings if you conceder the 1/2 pot of coffee you throw out on a daily
bases.

K-Cups killing the planet?
