Dolce Gusto Pods

Gillyx

Considering treating myself to one of these coffee makers with my tesco clubcard vouchers.

I realise the pods aren't the cheapest but neither is coffee from coffee shops, and since I don't really drink it's my vice.

So does anyone use these and know where the cheapest place to buy these are? And do they taste good?

I used to have one, the coffee is not bad, powdered milk is horrible, but if you are an Espresso person then you would do better going for a Nespresso machine.

Be warned not a money saving option.

I'm more of a cappuccino/latte person, not sure I could stomach espresso. I normally use Douwe Egberts instant, and I like that.

fwiw, I think they taste delicious but they're almost never on offer. you can buy them in bulk from ebay where they're a little cheaper. I love mine, but at +-40p a cup, I do limit the amount I drink. hope this helps.

ps the machines themselves are often heavily reduced so shop around over a month or so and I think you'll make a saving there.

Well Tesco were doing £25 off so it was down to £94 got £30 of Clubcard Vouchers doubled to £60, had another £7 worth of vouchers, so managed to get the machine and a 16 pack of americano and an 8 pack of latte for £34.89 so I'm pleased with that, and the coffee is delicious!
