welp, i was brewing a pot of coffee, for it to become iced coffee....we LOVE iced coffee..
everything went well,
fill Mr. Coffee with 14 cups of water
add coffee to filter
turn on
wait till its done
then shut off Mr. Coffee
only Mr. Coffee became Mr. Belligerent and would not shut off....
we buy the plain and simple...on/off Mr. Coffee
no gizmo's, no clocks, no radio, no nuffin, but a simple on/off Mr. Coffee
well, my wife appreciates it when i buy not 1...but "up to" 3 Mr. Coffee's at wally's world emporium, when only 1 goes kaputz....
that way, we have a back up any time..
same with toasters.........1 goes kaputz, buy 2 or 3 to replace it....
same with the can opener......buy 2 or 3 as spares....
the "last time" we bought a Mr. Coffee, it was $19.99 at wally's world.
now, that same model is no longer available.....at least not at wally's world.
so i was able to get them on amazon.
the caraf is much different, on the one at wally's world, and we keep those, when the machine gets trashed.....since they are made of glass, best to keep'em on hand.
some people have a closet full of clothing, they never wear anymore, or are seasonal clothing.
we have 1 closet chuck full of Mr. Coffee, toasters, cake batter mixers, and can openers.
if the wife and i die, the kids will be able to have a garage sale of NIB appliances......
it could be worse.......we had a relative that bought cookies, after cookies, after cookies.......
cookies every where.....some were like packages that were 4 years old...........
at least, our stock of appliances, being NIB, can be used after 4 years...but all those cookies..?????
