Help - K-cups aren't cheap

I buy the majority of my K-cups at the grocery store. I tend to try different brands as long as they are just coffee, no flavorings. I have looked at some of the so-called bargain priced places for K-cups but they don't seem very reasonable to me.
I'm asking all K-cup users out there - where do you get the best price on your K-cups?

have you tried the ones you fill yourself? You can buy a set of 4 pretty cheap and have them prefilled. once done you just dump the grounds, rince them out, and then refill later. I keep the actual k-cups, or generic k-cups around too, but mostly we just fill our own with our favorite stuff. You can get the GOOD coffee this way and keep your price, and waste levels, down

I have one, that's for my husband. He only likes one kind of coffee and I want to try different kinds.

@Jessicalynnt I think Amazon will be my best bet.

I do that for my husband - I should just buy another one of them.

@sallypup I put mine in the trash and they usually wind up on the floor!

@AbbyGreenhill The worst part is digging out the used grounds and getting them into the compost container. Super easy to make a horrid mess.

We do not have a Keurig yet. Hubby wanted one last year but he has since changed his mind. I never notice the prices.

@AbbyGreenhill If we had one I am sure we would end up feeling the same way. Our church has one that they keep in the lobby and before going into preaching you can fix yourself a cup of coffee. It is a nice treat once in a while.

I wasn't 100 percent happy with it at first, but now I wouldn't trade it for any other coffee maker.

The grocery store had a $8 pack on sale for $6 so that was a good buy. It doesn't happen all the time.

I do not drink coffee but I have seen some at Wal-Mart I do not know if would be cheaper there or not.

I very seldom go there, but if we do I'll have to look.

@AbbyGreenhill I have an electric one and I love the smell of grind coffee in the morning, it's even better than the coffee itself.

For the Keurig coffee maker. The little cups that hold the coffee grinds.
