I recently purchased bilateral hearing aids from Costco.....loved that the hearing specialist is not on commission and that I can try them for 90 days and get a full refund if not satisfied. I tried getting aids thru the audiologist and the price was $6000. For the newest technology and comparable aids at Costco I paid $2000. I love them and cannot imagine being without them.....and I have only had them for ten days. I go in Monday for a recheck and will have some fine tuning done is necessary. I have also had really good service from the optical department. I have had my last two pair of glasses made there even though I used an opthmalogist instead of their optician.

Since you don't like coffee, I guess the Java Chip is good (I think that's what it's called), no coffee ---ya, even though it's called Java. Now if you liked coffee....Vente Iced Coffee with 4 pumps of white cocoa..YUM YUM (Grande 3 pumps, Tall 2 Pumps)...to die for. Also ask the barrista, they can give great suggestions, they experiment all the time. Vickey-MN

You can also order the little plastic discs that fit into the top of used K cups to refill with your own coffee. They come with a little fan brush to help clean the filter in the used one. We ordered the 24 pack and refill with Folgers Black Silk and some flavored favorites. I stick a small square of scotch tape over the hole in middle for freshness and to keep form spilling dry grounds before use. Just make sure to let the filter cup dry completely before reusing. We have some that have been reused 10 or more times. Just turn the cup until the punched hole on bottom is lined up with needle. I marked edge of cup with marker for a while, but is just as easy to turn until it falls onto the needle! Ours at home was a gift, and I bought one for break room at work. Loving that quick cup with a little caramel machiatto creamer.....yum!
