Say hello to my little friend…
I’ve been eyeing the new Starbucks Verismo V, an
at-home espresso brewing machine. They
were just released a month or so ago and retailed in my area for $149. I kept kicking around buying one in hopes it
would keep be out of the Starbucks drive-thru lane as much as I already
frequent it. I was hesitant because if
the espresso didn’t taste as good, well…now I’d have an expensive machine at
home and I’d still be spending $4 a day (or more if I visit more than once) for
my favorite Americano drink.
I got an email that the machine was on sale for $99
for a select few days. It also came with
some sample pods as well. I was killing
time at the mall and stopped into Starbucks to ask more about the Verismo. The gal I talked to is a 14-year Starbucks veteran
and says the espresso is the best she has tasted from an at-home machine. So, the Verismo followed me home.
And she is right!
It is some delicious espresso.
You do have to buy the espresso pods which are $1 or
less per pod. Considering one Americano
costs me $4, I will eventually be saving money.
I love that I can wake up and make an espresso at home instead of thinking
about having to make a Starbucks run.
I am very happy with my purchase.
