Folgers Introduces 2 New Products! (Folgers Gift Basket & Cuisinart Coffee Maker Giveaway) – CLOSED

**GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED**
Congratulations to:
#377 Shi

We all know the jingle…..

“The Best Part of Wakin’ Up……is Folgers in your Cup”

Many of us feel that way, don’t we? And even if you aren’t a coffee drinker, the aroma is wonderful. My favorite coffee cup right now is a bright red Folgers cup that I’ve been using for months….love it!

Did you see the Folgers announcement this week?

Two new products were unveiled:

  • Folgers Filter Packs Coffee
  • Folgers Instant Coffee Crystals

The filter packs couldn’t be easier……just place the filter pack in your coffee maker, add water, and enjoy! Less mess and easier clean up.

The instant coffee crystals are good for moms and dads on the go. The ones I received are the Classic Roast, which to me is much easier on the tummy, but not as bold and strong as my husband likes.  What I really loved…….the recipe they included for a Caramel Iced Coffee for one, using the Instant Coffee Crystals.  Perfect during this summer heat.

Caramel Iced Coffee for One

  • 1/3 cup warm water
  • 1  (o.07 oz) packet of Folgers Classic Instant Coffee Crystals
  • 2 tbsp Smuckers Caramel Sundae Syrup
  • 2 tbsp half n half, milk, or coffee creamer
  • ice cubes
  • whipped cream, if desired
  1. Pour water over coffee in 8 oz glass.  Add Caramel Sundae Syrup.  Stir until dissolved.
  2. Stir in half n half.  Add ice cubes.  Tip with whipped cream.

Easy and Delicious!

Be sure to Like Folgers on FB to get more info and possible coupons!!

ANOTHER COUPON: 50 cents off Folgers product 3 oz or more

Comments

  5. i’d have real half and half – just a bit is so much better, as i’m reminded on days like today, a holiday, when i ran to the store to buy some as a treat while hubby made crepes.

  25. Frugral Friend, I don’t even own a coffee maker! If I want a cup of joe, I have to get up early & go through Dunkin Donuts which is a guaranteed extra 250 calories (gotta have a donut too, right?) Plus it kind of defeats the purpose of drinking coffee to wake up. So my change would be —- get a coffee maker to make some at home!

  31. I would enhance my coffee routine by actually owning a coffee pot instead of having to stop somewhere every morning to get one!

  32. This time of year we like to enhance our coffee by drinking it on ice with a flavored creamer

  48. I follow on twitter liked on facebook and I simply have 2 have folgers 1st thing in the mornings!!!!

  53. Receiving a drip coffee maker and waking up to Flogers already brewed!
    Would be The Best Part of Wakin’ Up , Ah it’d make my day!

  55. I would start drinking coffee on a more regular basis…much to the gratitude of my coworkers 🙂

  62. I would love to start trying new flavors in my coffee and experimenting with recipes!

  79. The only thing that could make my morning coffee routine better is having a nice coffee maker! I already use Folgers – won’t buy any other!

  90. The Cuisinart brew central would make my morning coffee taste even better!! hot folgers coffee with whipped cream yum! my day would just get better!

  94. Sometimes I add Nesquick Chocolate syrup or some other flavored syrups as well. I follow you and folgiers on fb and email.

  98. It would be nice if I had a live in Barista, ha! Since that probably wouldn’t happen, I would love to change the coffee I use. I find I get in a coffee slump with using the same coffee, I think I should try Folgers to help step up my coffee morning routines!

  99. I would set my alarm clock for 15 minutes earlier, so I could sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee while reading the morning paper, instead of racing around the house with a cup of coffee in my hand!

  107. Having my morning coffee out on my balcony would be great.
    Thank you.

  113. Just having a new coffee maker would be awesome, mine is so old got it a few years ago at a yard sale

  119. i would love for someone to make my coffee for me in the morning. it would be like my own lil luxury….
    i am following you on twitter@rocketrider2011

  133. Folgers is the only coffee allowed in my house. I love the different flavors and aromas. I love waking up on the weekend when my husband just made a fresh pot. Our maker just broke so it would be awesome to win a new one.

  143. I usually don’t use creamers or anything other than Stevia and almond milk so I would like to try other flavor enchancements.

  151. I think the best enhancement would be to have a personal chef who made me breakfast & coffee every morning! Since that’s not going to happen, I think putting nutmeg or cinnamon in the pot every morning is good!

  166. Drip a little Bailey’s in?! No, just kidding!
    I need to start using filtered water in my coffee. I know there’s a difference in taste!

  172. I think one thing that could make my coffee experience in the morning better is if I remembered more often at night to set the coffee timer and prepare the coffee the night before so I wouldn’t have to grind my coffee in the morning 🙂

  178. I’m not a big coffee drinker, but my Mother In-law is. I am trying to win this for her. She would love a new coffee pot and it would enhance her daily cups of coffee. She drinks coffee off and on all day.

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  185. The enhancement I would make is having the coffee already made when I come downstairs, mornings are always a rush.

  194. I do not have a coffee maker and think that it would be so much easier than making coffee for everyone with the individual packages.

  196. i would love a programmmable coffee maker so that when i woke up it was ready and waiting..that’s my only enhancement

  203. I’d like to find some cinnamon syrup to add to my cup(s) of morning coffee.

  214. It would be nice if the coffee met me at the bed – so I could get my first cup without my feet even making it to the floor. LOL
    1prizewinner at gmail dot com

  222. My mornings would be better if I could remember to set up the coffee maker and timer the night before

  227. I best enhancement I have found so far is adding some chocolate powder to my coffee and I always make it extra strong, reminds me of starbucks Yum

  243. I would drink my coffee out on the deck and watch the sun rise berfore my busy day starts. Thats all I need is that relaxing first 15 minutes to get me going!!

  245. I would take my cup of coffee to the sun room and just enjoy to birds singing and the quietness of the rest of the world early in each morning.

  251. I would make sure I set the timer before I go to bed…maybe I need to put a reminder on my phone to alert me to not forget to remember to do that, lol

  255. I would love coffee maker to have a place for creamer so you can easily add it to your coffee.

  256. The only enhancement would be a nice hot cup of coffee, & a cool brisk breeze while walking the dog…..lovely:)

  266. The enhancement I would like to make my mornings better would be to have my husband make my coffee & bring it to me right as I am getting out of bed….I’m grumpy until I get a few cups of coffee in me! Thanks for the chance to win this awesome prize package!
    sbuttercup{at}roadrunner{dot}com

  270. I have friends over for coffee at least once a week…having a second coffee pot and lots of coffee would be great! It sure makes my day go better when I start w/coffee and friends!

  278. I would want a espresso/foamed milk cappucino maker to make my best part of waking up even better!

  282. I don’t even own my own coffee pot, I borrow one from my grandma! I would love to have my own and be able to make some delicious coffee!!

  283. These might give me the inspiration to actually get the coffee ready the night before knowing that all I have to do is drop the filter bag in.

  291. I’d have the auto drip on so it’ll be readily made for me by the time I wake up in the morning to the smell of freshly brewed coffee.

  305. I don’t have to have much to make my morning coffee experience any better… my husband makes it for me and has it ready to go when I’m out of my shower. Couldn’t ask for anymore than that.

  306. I get free coffee at work but it’s AWFUL! I would love LOve LOVE the Cuisinart coffee maker to make coffee at home!

  307. My morning coffee routine would be even better if my coffee pot was my alarm clock, and all I had to do was reach over and have a sip before I got out of bed in the morning! 🙂 No snooze required! Follow you on facebook! Thanks! 🙂

  315. The best improvement to my morning coffee would be if my husband made it for me every day!

  320. I would like to enhance my morning coffee with a new coffee maker! My coffee maker leaves grinds in my cup and it doesn’t taste very good!

  326. I would love for the coffee to be ready to go in the morning so all I have to do is turn on the coffee maker, but I never remember to set it up the night before.

  331. I love the idea of having my coffee set up and ready to go the night before and trying different flavors of coffee

  343. Winning this giveaway would make my morning routine better for sure! Have a coffee pot I can set to have coffee ready at a certain time would be fabulous!

  367. I would love to get up a bit earlier so that I can enjoy my coffee!

  394. I would love it if the coffee mugs were washed by someone else. That way I will be smiling as I drink on my coffee.

  405. I think what I would add to my coffee routine is trying the Caramel Iced Coffee that you posted. Sounds so good!

  425. I would buy a Cuisinart Drip Coffee Make to enhance my coffee experience. 🙂
