Coffee Crisis Prevented

This past weekend was crazy around our house. Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood were coming to Sioux Falls. We had a full calendar. Remote broadcasts and more.

Somewhere in the blur of life, my wife texted me and said she was off to buy groceries. No problem, I'll help unload when she gets home. That's when I noticed something was wrong. Terribly wrong.

We've been using a Keurig coffee machine for a couple years now. What I've found out is you run out of coffee before you know it. I anxiously grabbed for the plastic HyVee bag and when I looked closely, shock and horror!

At first I thought it was just new packaging. Maybe for the Christmas coming up. There was a green stripe with writing across the box of my favorite Eight O' Clock Original. Nooooo. Decaf!

The boxes sat on the table for a couple of days. Wednesday I decided to take the coffee back for an exchange. When I got to the store, it looked like they were out. Eight  O' Clock Original is on the bottom shelf (I like my coffee reasonably priced) so I got down on my knees right there in the store. Down on my knees, I had to bend over further where I finally noticed what I was after. 8 O'Clock Orignal full strength.

The lady at customer service was very helpful, I headed to the car knowing that for another week or two anyway, crissis had been averted.
