but it's $100! You can do that AND get meats. The bad thing is that there are no high dollar items near the coffee, and you have to keep a finger on the machine. I nest you can do is flick potato chip bags into your cart at the same time.


You can’t leave the grinder. Its not worth it for the time it takes. You can easily get $100 worth of stuff in far less time.
It would be interesting to see how many of the winners were coffee grinders...

You should also let the folks in the Entertainment forum know this.

They will be happy.
