    This week’s Cross Country Cafe is offering some great Fall beverage items!  I know for some folks K-cups seem way to expensive and compared to traditional brew they are pricey.  But… compared to paying for one cup of coffee every day at the coffee shop… this is a frugal option!

    The biggest reason to me in going with a kcup brewer was that my husband was the only coffee drinker.  Why brew a pot of coffee for one person??

    This weeks Kcup Deals:

    Green Mountain Our Blend, 24 ct., $11.99 (49¢ ea.)

    Twinings Pure Camomile Tea, 24 ct., $9.99 (41¢ ea.)

    The Green Mountain blend is a traditional medium roast that is mild, smooth and aromatic with a thick body that will appeal to the masses.  Meanwhile, the Camomile tea is known for it’s nice relaxing properties and perfect for a cool Fall day.

    This sale is available through October 8th.

    If you are curious how this compares to grocery store deals, most grocery store boxes are 10-12 ct. and the average price for those is around $6 (see all the current k-cup deals).  So in the end these really are the better deal.  Each week Cross Country puts a new flavor on sale, so if these aren’t your favorites try waiting for something you love and then stock up!

          dollar tree ad

          A year ago the Dollar Tree started taking coupons.  For a while it was a massive headache to use coupons there, but many are reporting that the bugs are gone and employees are doing better with understanding things.  I thought it was about time to give them another shot at being a weekly store on Southern Savers.

          Tip:  Every store carries different items.  Don’t spend hours searching for items, if you don’t see something just move on.  If you see something that I don’t have here I’d love for you to send it to me and I’ll add it to the list.  Either leave a comment or email me at jenny@southernsavers.com.

          If you’re not super familiar with shopping at the Dollar Tree here’s their coupon policy.
