Smashing your Keurig is symbolic at best. Keurig already got your money and they could care less.

I think it shows that they won’t be getting any more of your money, since you won’t be buying their coffee either. Or do they even sell coffee? I really know nothing about those machines, I still use a stovetop espresso machine.

I disagree.

Keurig’s business model is based on the continued purchase of their overpriced K-Cups. No machine, no K-Cups, no long-term business. They care, a lot.

It's not the maker, it's replacing the K-cups where the money is.

I have a Keurig, but I grind my own beans in an after-market reusable k-cup, so Keurig doesn't get anything from me for coffee. I bought the machine years ago.

They make their real money on the refills, silly.

No maker in the house... no weekly trips for the little k cups.

I love capitalism.
