Please help with family joke
« on: October 01, 2011, 11:48:47 PM »
This is a family joke. We are trying to enlist our brother to hock around online and find us cheap k cups. This brother is a frequent ddf poster- probably one of the top 20 posters.

I don't think We The People was created for that type of nonsense.

No, I created "We The People" as a project for law school, and it was created for jokes like this.

I considered calling it "I the people", but "we" is more royal.

Anyway, can you just sign it? I think you need to reach a certain threshold before they make it public.

How cool would it be if we could -1 some petitions?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Very cool. Obviously you don't mean this one.

I should mention that I signed the idiotic one to forgive all student debt. I have student debt, so I think it's a great idea.

It's shenanigans like this one that vitiate those petitions that are truly meant to effect change (like the Pollard petition). Ugh.

I meant Rubashkin, but there was some talk on DDF for starting one for Pollard.

Someone told me he actually hadn't made an account yet to do rubashkin, and did so only when I sent him this.
I wasn't pleased with him, but at least now he did it.

This is a family joke. We are trying to enlist our brother to hock around online and find us cheap k cups.

For cheap k kups - heres a deal I found

Note - you need a kohls charge card to get the 30% off

http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/kitchen/top_brands/keurig/keurig1/kcups.jsp?prtID=pfx&src=k1971&cm_mmc=Performics-

Added 6 boxes to cart, use PROMO CODE: SAVING30 (for 30% off) = $50.36

Then get $10 Kohls cash

Order 2 more with Kohls casd, 30% off code and try MVCLUVSFS for free shipping

So basically will come out to $0.417 a piece

I believe it is cheaper to get from Staples...

Add 6 of the $12.99 24 packs to cart.
Use a $25 off $75 coupon to bring your total to: $52.94

$52.94 / 6 / 24 = ~$0.37

Note: Sometimes you can find 24 packs for $10.99 using the catalog item numbers. In that case it would be $51.93 after the $25 off $75 coupon when ordering 7 boxes, which would be $51.93 / 7 / 24 = ~$0.31

$52.94 / 6 / 24 = ~$0.37

You forgot to add 1.99 to buy the coupon

But either way still cheaper at staples
