I am not much of a complainer Michelle may disagree) but I ended up buying one of the Keurig 2.0 coffee pots yesterday and it was an ordeal! We went to Danville Walmart and they were running a special (which expires today) that if you purchase one you can receive a $30 Walmart gift card. Well, I thought I may find one cheaper, so I didnt purchase it and we came home and I could not find one cheaper so I decided to go to Stanford Walmart and buy one. Come to find out that Stanford Walmart will not honor specials that Danville Walmart is running. They will only honor Walmart deals. Anyway, we drive back to Danville, (for the third time yesterday), buy the thing and I get my $30 gift card and all is good, so I think! Get the thing home, unpack it and find out that ONLY the Keruig K-Cups will work in it, and only ones produced since the 2.0 was released. It has a sensor in it that reads the edge of the K Cup and if you use an unapproved one you get an error message. Also, you cannot use your own coffee in the thing as well, no adapter, and unless you use one of the special bigger K Cups (dont know what they are called) you can only brew a small cup of coffee. To say the least I was frustrated. However, I figured I was not alone in this frustration and was determined to beat Keurig at their imperialistic game so to youtube I went and found a couple of videos that showed how to (1) brew the big cup and (2) use your own coffee and adapter! Take that Keurig. I have since tried the tricks and they do work but if you find yourself in this unfortunate situation, you can try these tricks but Im not responsible if you mess anything up! The youtube links to the videos I used as a guide are posted below but there are many different videos that show different things you can do. youtu.be/idviALOvAYY youtu.be/nVdF-S9OG5A
