  • Form me personally, I’d have to say my automated espresso machine. For context; I was buying 1-2 coffees from a shop per day (let’s say 10/week on average).

    Cost me $700 on a sale. Grinds & presses the beans by itself, then pushes boiling water through to give me espresso shots. It paid for itself in 6 months of ownership by weening me off the local shops, and it’s lasted for over 6 years so far.

    Instead of ~$4.50 per coffee, it’s like $24 for a bulk bag of beans at Costco that lasts me 3 weeks, and a carton of half-and-half that lasts me like a month. That’s like $180/mo → $35/mo



  • Assuming this post stays up, guess I’ll start.

    (Edit: first off, the question is easy to misread, and I voted the opposite of my intent. So I voted twice in my intended intent to offset it)

    I voted yes because I fully recognize it’s a joke, but I also fully recognize it’s a joke in poor taste.

    I watched Yahtzee religiously back in the day, laughed at this specific joke, and thought it was odd a community adopted the name.

    I’d also like to point people to this community without awkward introductions.
