First Cuppa Jo Or Wired and Inspired

What a deal I got! A new brand of coffee at the Good Deal Hut. I’d say it cost about thirty percent less; That’s as good as it gets, I guess…. Just poured myself a big ole morning cup, A nice big steaming mug, Both hands.. hold and sip as I tip it up.. Ppptttui!.. Of all the stinking luck! They shoulda named it Mr Yuk! But.. but… what a deal I got !

ha! mr yuk! I love your descriptions and that last line, how you try to cheer yourself up with the 30 cents you saved - entertaining write :)

The deal was real and maybe a steal but the taste was a waste cause you dealt in haste. How's that for an answer. I'll give you a sip of mine, it hardly has any flavor so which is worse? :)

ha! i think we've all succumbed to a "great deal" that turns out to be not quite as good as what we'd expected it to be. you've described it well.

Wow Robert this is different, and so enjoyable to read, 'One get what one pays for' so they say.........
