5 Fun Iced Coffee Money Savers

My mother Sharon and I have been enjoying and experimenting with iced coffee for many years now.  The picture shows 9 brews in my kitchen cupboard from all around the world. 

  1. Have your 1st cup @ home: 10 years ago iced coffee was half price vs hot coffee.  Now it’s usually more expensive.  Break the habit and have your first cup before leaving the house.
  2. Set weekly goals: Every Sunday I make 12 cups for the week.  Sometimes I need a late afternoon pick me up and give in to DD.  Not a Starbucks guy.
  3. Cut it with Costco Kirkland: Most flavored iced coffee is too strong.  Try mixing their medium roast 50/50 with Sarabeth’s hazelnut or your favorite flavor and enjoy the subtle aftertaste while saving lots of $$.
  4. Shop at Home Goods and Marshall’s etc.: Great deals to be had at $5/Lb. for flavored coffee instead of the $8-$12 that many supermarkets charge.
  5. Have Fun with it and share: You would be surprised how many people love iced coffee.  I’m working on a 50% medium roast, 25% TJ vanilla and 25% Sarabeth’s hazelnut blend right now.  Enjoy and talk it up!
