Coffee is getting so pricey so I’m looking for a better source. I buy at Costco the organic Kirkland one. Can I do better? I’m in Canada.
I need organic although if it’s not labeled organic I don’t mind that either. Looking for whole bean, I don’t want ground. I just want a good quality cup of joe. I think the Costco one is around $23 for 900g or so. Whole foods used to be pretty good too but it’s a bit out of the way for me. thanks for any suggestions
Who’s your coffee plug? Organic whole beans

I stock up on Lavazza when Amazon has it on sale for $10-15 for 2 lbs
Wal Mart, bizarrely enough. Some brands and the store brands are lower priced.
If you want really good Ethiopian beans (I know, I’m a coffee snob, but I still like as good of a deal as I can get) check out Fresh Roasted Coffee LLC. I get their 5lb bags for $60 on Amazon with the subscribe and save
I had to stop buying from Costco because they were all just so bad! Really inconsistent quality bag to bag and Costco changed brands so many times.
I did an around the world that included ordering 15 different coffees from 5 different online companies. Did taste tests for all of them. Bottom line is that you’re really not going to get cheaper than Costco. But you absolutely can get much better quality for not that much more.
Found that Gobena was the best for quality and not bad for cost if you use the subscription which I like because I don’t want to have to think about it. Been five months and about 6 orders and fully happy all the way around. The organic Guatamalan is our favorite, but the Chiapas is great too.
Always super fresh and the first and last pot of a new bag are the same. Huge upgrade for a few dollars more a month.
