27. Costco + M.E.

My go-to is Costco because of the varieties of coffee and the reasonable prices. But for something more exotic, tasty and strong, I would suggest visiting Middle Eastern and Indian food stores. Prices are very reasonable, I find.

For years I had a Keurig, but I've retired it so that I use a French Press.
