Merry Christmas to me and you: Brewbot Review and Giveaway

Friday, December 10, 2010



I love coffee houses.  LOVE THEM.  I spent quite a bit of time there when I was working as a technology sales rep.  In between calls it was a quick place to cop a squat, grab some liquid energy and utilize some WiFi.  Spending that much time there though can break the bank!  Not kidding...five bucks or so, several times a day??  Maybe that was just me.

Anyway, being at home I really miss having a nice drink made by a barista specially for me.  I mean, I really miss it.  I live way out in nowheresville so there is no coffee house for MILES.

I have been researching coffee machines, drink makers for the house for quite some time.  I've hemmed and hawed and driven my husband stark raving mad about it.  He doesn't drink coffee, so he doesn't care.  He just said BUY ONE ALREADY.  But, I am not just a coffee drinker.  I like lattes and cappacinos.  I like foo-foo frilly coffee.  So I wanted something affordable that would make foo-foo frilly drinks not just flavored coffee.

ENTER TASSIMO BREWBOT!  When I was given the opportunity to review this machine I literally jumped up and down on the couch.  Seriously, it was a match made in heaven!

Coffee check!
Lattes check!
Cappacinos check!
Tea check!
Hot Cocoa check!

It makes everything a girl could ask for.  Not only that, it makes them perfect with no guess work and even my kids could work this machine.  It has a barcode at the top of each drink disc.  


You insert the disc, press the button and voila!  60 seconds or less later perfection in a cup!







(Look at the frothy goodness!)

I have no patience and I absolutely detest my coffee pot because it's slow and a pain to clean.  The brewbot is easy to clean and fast.  He's actually my new best friend.  (Shhh!  No one tell Ducky she's been replaced by a machine!) 



If you watch the video above you'll see just how cool he is!  Don't be jealous, I have a chance for you to get your very own new BFF in time for Christmas!  


You'll be over the moon when you see all the brands and varieties of drink products as well!  You can purchase them at Walmart, Target, Bed, Bath & Beyond, and more.  


You can buy your very own BREWBOT for a Special Price plus 2 Tdisc Packages by clicking http://bit.ly/Tassimo25

This would be for hubby (and me since it means he can make his own cup of coffee sometimes) I would love it because we drink different things, I drink Green tea and Hot Chocolate, he drinks coffee, this would mean I don't have to waste whole pots anymore

I want to try to win this because I have just taken up drinking coffee and cappuccinos. I have a basic cappuccino machine but it would be great to be able to make everything else too. It would help me to get through my mornings a little better with my 3 month old. Hot caffeine is my friend now.

I'd love to win the Tassimo Brewbot for my sister for Christmas this year! She just moved into her first apartment, so it would make the perfect housewarming/Christmas gift, especially since, truth be told, she's not the best at making coffee yet she loves all varieties of hot beverages. I'm sure she'd be thrilled to have a machine do all of the hard work for her, as will I when I go and visit. :) Thanks for the chance to enter!

I would love this for our kitchen. We often just want one cup of coffee after the morning pot is gone -- this would do the trick.

MANDATORY ENTRY: 'IF' I'm lucky enough to win this giveaway I will 'gift' it to my lovely in-laws. They drink more of these Barista drinks than I do so they will get more use out of it, plus...I want this for Christmas so I can give it to them BECAUSE I don't have a Christmas gift for them. I don't have a gift for them because I am not working and I cannot afford to purchase them one. UGH!
