Tried this. Are they on friggin crack? They charge a dollar per packet and the coffee is mediocre at best. I did a taste test at work and no one --- no one ---- preferred the regualr flavor to Folger's decaf instant.

i thought about it for a sec, maybe it would be good for camping or something... but really.. instant is just as easy to carry/use and is far cheaper.

Thanks Jokersmoker.

Google Autofill makes it very easy for these forms. A few clicks and your done.

Ditto - these things make a bloody mess when they break in your backpack. And...if you are camping, why not just use instant. I don't know who they are marketing to. the stuff simply isn't that good.

its not a deal, more like free sample to get you addicted. not hot.
is their a catch? such as email spamming and junk mail as well? smells fishy ^_-
probably in such a small amount sample pkg, hardly worth the effort.

I don't think in 4 years of HD, I've ever gotten anything from any coffee deal :(

Anyone remember ratingwonders.com (now extinct) and free pounds of Dunkin Donuts coffee beans delivered via Airborne?

It's really not that bad. I think it's pretty good an tastes like the real thing. I really like how it's portable. I'm a student on the go. They just need to make little packets with the cream + sugar already in there now too!!

Yeah...but did you see the price per package? It's $20 for 20 single packs. That's some expensive coffee since you still have to provide a cup and hot water. Free is definitely the only way I would ever drink this stuff. ;)
