Revisiting this thread ahead of International Coffee Day on Tuesday.
I'm currently drinking this:

which sells for £3.50 or £4 in the supermarkets, but I picked up for £1.25 a bag short-dated in my local pound shop.Official MSE Forum Team member.Please report all problem posts to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com1 -
Confession: I have a French press and bought ground coffee with great excitement, but it just tasted bitter and nasty. I'm not prepared to buy any more bags trying to work out which I prefer when I can get a 190g jar of Douwe Egberts at around £6 when on offer.
Apart from that I find the grinds a bit of a hassle to get rid of thoroughly. I hate the thought of even the few remnants that cling to the press going down the sink so supposed I could rinse it out with water and feed my plants with it?No man is worth crawling on this earth.
So much to read, so little time.0 -

It looks like a treat but is so clearly bad for you!HillStreetBlues said:I will be cerebrating national coffee day with one of these from Lidl
I inspected the Lidl aisles for coffee bags yesterday but there were none. Clearly the profit margin on other coffee lines is better.No man is worth crawling on this earth.

Probably 3 a day whether I am in the office or at home. I don't tend to buy coffee from Costa or such outlets as I only drink black coffee & I refuse to pay upwards of £2 for that.1
