All good feedback and we want suggestions. We need to appropriate the funds this evening at the club meeting in order to have enough time to purchase the supplies.

Sounding more like a 20 cup Mr Fusion more and more

I love my Keurig, but I'm not using to serve a lot of people.  Just a couple of cups every morning to wake Tammy and I up.

You'll need someone to keep the reservoir filled.  You'll get 6 cups (+/-) per fill-up.

Between brewing and heating water for the next cup, it can take several minutes between cups.   So you might have a grumpy line of coffee-deprived folks waiting.

When will it be used?  For the two or three times a year that I can think of, it doesn't seem very cost effective?

My $0.02 worth...

Expensive?  Pretend you are at an airport or Starbucks and it will seem like a steal!

In bulk from BJs might allow a lower charge.  An even $$ amount makes it easy to pay and make change, that's  cambio for the "taco man"!

Lots of good ideas, we can make this work.

$1 for coffee is good, but 3 for a sandwich is pushing the bubble some in my opinion. And I am pretty sure you can buy these at BJ's also so might catch a break there. For coffe I use these at home and love them and the rest of what they make; Barrie House Coffee Donut Shop Blend Capsules (72 capsules) on Sale for
30.60 for 72 and 96 cups is 40.00

Not sure I can send a link but these are from Amazon if you want to do a search. Also for everyone; 01 Oct Amazon starts charging state tax on purchases. They are opening a warehouse in Baltimore so guess what. ...
