K-CUP NEWS: New Green Mountain Retail Packs have only 12 K-Cups per Pack



I just got back to my office after picking up some fantastic soup at my local Kings Supermarket (West Caldwell, NJ). I usually stop and check out their selection of Keurig K-Cups while I'm there to make sure that the prices and selection on Shoffee.com has a much better selection of K-Cups, at a better price.

So today, I had two surprises during my trip to Kings. The first was that the new packaging for what has always been referred to as the Keurig B40 Elite Brewer is now known as the Keurig Classic Brewer, and even more shocking was the fact that all of the new Green Mountain retail packs at King's (pictured above) only contained 12 K-Cups (priced at $7.49/pack).

So now, the savings at Shoffee.com is even greater than before. When you purchase Green Mountain Keurig K-Cups at Shoffee.com, you get 24 K-Cups per pack. That's double what you'll find at retail locations, and all Green Mountain Keurig K-Cups on Shoffee.com are priced starting at $10.39/box of 25 K-Cups.

Let's do the math:

Green Mountain K-Cups at your local grocery store:
$7.49 / 12 = about $0.62 per cup


Green Mountain K-Cups at Shoffee.com:
$10.39 / 24 = about $0.43 per cup


If you drink just one cup of coffee per day, that's a savings of $69.35 per year.
