My stock-up price on k-cups has always been 50 cents per k-cup or less. It's an easy way to figure out if a box of k-cups is reasonably priced or not. For a box of 10 k-cups, the price needs to be $5.00 or less. For a box of 12 k-cups, the price needs to be $6.00 or less. Etc.
My two brand exceptions to the 50-cent rule were Starbucks k-cups and Dunkin Donuts k-cups. They each have a loyal following (Starbucks has got the dark roast fans and DD had got the light roast fans), and their k-cups are just more expensive; there's no way around it.
My husband and I have been longtime Dunkin Donuts fans, and we are willing to pay up to 60 cents per k-cup. It's next to impossible to find DD k-cups for less than that.
Until now. In an unprecedented move, Amazon has put this pack of 60 Dunkin' Donuts Original Blend k-cups in their Subscribe & Saver program, which drops their price down to as low as $28.31, or 47 cents per k-cup, shipped!
- $28.31 ($0.47 per k-cup) with the 15% Subscribe & Save discount (if you can take delivery of 5 or more active subscriptions in one month)
- $31.64 ($0.53 per k-cup) with the 5% Subscribe & Save discount

Remember that you don't need to be a member of Amazon Prime to get free shipping on ANY Amazon Subscribe & Save deal...shipping is free for anyone.
