Giveaway for 2 Tassimo Brewing Machines

It was a year ago that I received a Tassimo brewing system...and this is not a shameless plug...it is used everyday chez moi. Every. Day. Sometimes 2x a day. Sometimes more.

Kids make expresso for guests. I make hot chocolate. Those who are caffeine-challenged can have decaf. (The only beverage not-loved is the Tea Chai Latte - Tassimo could you please make an Orange Pekoe Tea disk? Pretty please?).

So in celebration of my Tassimo-anniversary (tassaversary?) I've been offered to give away 2 Tassimo brewing machines to my social networked friends.

So who wants an amazing (and this is my honest opinion - it's AMAZING) brewing machine?...tell me...could be yours...

GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED - THANKS TO ALL WHO ENTERED - WINNERS HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED

Caroline,
I would love to have one of the Tassimo Machines for my store!

My friend Ariane from Foundation Studio keeps talking about hers that she won from Twitter and I think it would make a great addition for my customers.

I could use it to keep myself perked up during the day and could also offer the customers a nice treat when they come to shop!

Please consider me, I would appreciate it so much!
Thanks,
Jenn

I keep looking at these machines. I cannot make coffee to save my life in a regular coffee maker - I tried to make coffee for my coffee-drinking-loving-husband and just about killed him. :( Maybe I could redeem myself with a Tassimo and make him a cup of Joe without embarrassing myself after 12 yrs of marriage. Yep... that is as pathetic as it sounds.

I've wanted one of these for so long! My husband makes the coffee in our house when he wakes up. That's great, except that he gets up at 5:30, so by the time I get down for a coffee 90 minutes later it tends to taste a little stale. I'd love to wake up and have a fresh cup of coffee!

I tried winning one of these through the Tassimo Twitter contest but was too slow. I've heard so many great things about this and I would love to have one for my husband so he can finally enjoy a good cup of coffee at home, ha ha!

I would love to try the hot chocolate and tea from it, so as you can see it would be heavily used.

Thank you for the giveaway!! :)

I would love a Tassimo! With a coffee drinker (me), a tea drinker (DH) and two lil hot chocolate drinkers, this would be perfect for us!

I really, really love to drink coffee all day long, and this would ensure that I would have fresh coffee whenever I need it. With a 3yo and 1yo, I need it lots!

Thx for offering and considering

Why do I want one, let me count the ways...
1. I entertain - a lot. But not for any reason. I'm in Guiding, and we hold a lot of leader meetings at my place, so we don't have to pay for meeting space. Attendance at the not-so-exciting meetings would definately go up.
2. My mornings are hectic. I would LOVE a "drive thru" bevvie without having to actually drive through and wait some where - with my morning time line, that just isn't possible.
3. Quiet rainy afternoons. 'nuff said on that one!
4. My hubby would love it too. He leaves at the crack of stupid in the morning. And he drives to locations in the country - with NO Timmies/Starbucks. He deserves a medal for doing this.
5. Because all my friends have one and I'm jealous. I see all the fun they are having, and I want to have that fun too!
There are many MORE ways...however, I'll leave it at that for today :)

I would love one of these -not for me -I have one (They are awesome) I would like one for a really great friend who has consistently been there in the last year since I started my business...doing anything that I need her for -as a new business owner I cannot afford to buy her one but I know she has wanted one for a while and this would be perfect-thanks for having the giveaway!

Fingers crossed

Oh I have been lusting after these beautiful Tassimo Machines! Life is crazy..but is always better with a little kick of caffeine! I have to admit I am not the most confident coffee maker. Does his make sense? When we have guests I am always afraid I have made the pot too strong, or too weak...how fab would it be to know it is perfect every single time.
Oh plus, I could get my Hubby to bring me a perfect cup in bed every morning. What? A girl can dream!

I would love to have one. Not for me, because I'm not a coffee drinker (although the hot chocolate sounds good!) but for my husband. He just got a new job yesterday after seven LONG months of being out of work, and he'll be telecommuting from home. It would be so nice to be able to start him off right with a really awesome way of getting his coffee!

All I keep hearing is wonderful things about the Tassimo coffee machine. I almost bought one a few months ago when I saw it on sale but never did. Now I wish I had. Sounds like just what I need!

I would love one of these. We've been looking at them for a while now, but with finances being the way they are, we can't afford it right now. I am the mom of 4, 2 of whom are special needs. I NEED my caffeine LOL There are days that I live on coffee especially when my son doesn't sleep the night before.

I would love one of these machines. My hubby and I both drink coffee, but I have to avoid caffeine. Therefore, oftentimes, one of us goes without. This machine would be my way to make it up to him. LOL

My friends, colleagues and clients need the Tassimo. They are tired of my too strong, too weak coffee and tea when they come to my home/business for work or pleasure. I need a Tassimo to deload at the end of a busy day with a steamy cup of something yummy to warm my insides and have a inner sigh. My Tassimo will get loads of use and will be seen and appreciated by many

I love our little coffee press, especially coz it was a gift from my mother when she came to visit us and couldn't stomach our instant coffee :-) makes me think of her whenever we use it.
We're in a tiny town far far away from any coffee chops, and it would be nice to have some fancy tasting coffee around once in awhile. I especially like that this thing can do teas and hot choclates too - my kid would love the different teas.
I've heard these are nice, I'd be happy if we won a machine, but happy for whoever gets one. It's a cute idea.

Me please! I'd love to say it's simply to satisfy my caffeine connoisseur cravings (although it would do that too!) but I'm pretty sure it would help save my marriage! :) DH & I are constantly arguing about how to make "the" perfect cup of coffee and after 10+ years, we still have no undeclared victor. Sadly, we've been forced to stray outside of the marriage for satisfaction (enter my friends Ms. Starbucks & Mr. Horton - Tim, to his friends!)and it would be so nice to be able to keep it in the family! :) Besides, I think hubby is getting tired of my not-so-subtle hints & sighs looking for a latte fix each night after 8:00 or so, and would much prefer I solve the problem with the push of a button, rather than calling on my theatrical tendencies to bemoan my fate! I promise I'd even share with him -and, of course, with my little guy as well who would be all over the hot chocolate option. Good luck to everyone!

Me please pretty please. Mine broke this week from over-use and I cannot afford a new one. And do not have any other coffee machines.
As any mom knows, the delight to brew a cup with one hand is a godsend when you are rocking baby in the other arm.
I agree- need Orange Pekoe!

This is hilarious, I have heard so many comments today on twitter about it and now you're giving one away.
That's it, put me down for a chance, I am now intrigued and want one -- I am a caffeine junky, like most mom's, and this would help fuel my addiction, while also being practical because now I wouldn't have to walk to the shop to get my fix

Oh yeah and I also could make quick hot chocolate for my boys ; 0

I like coffee. I have a coffee maker.

I have a 7 month old. I love my 7 month old.

Alas, they are like oil & water. If I try to make a pot of coffee, it's cold by the time I get to it. If I try to make it while he's having his power-morning-nap, it doesn't finish brewing in time.

Please, please.... bring coffee back into my sleep deprived life, won't you?

I just posted on my blog today asking if anyone had advice on these or the Keurig. You definitely have me leaning towards the Tassimo now. I plan to buy one but I'll hold off now just in case I'm a lucky winner!

I am the mom to three girls under the age of five. They are so full of life and energy and let's face it, mischief that I need my wits about me to keep up. But I also want a good cup of coffee. And made quickly and on demand when they decide naps are for the weak.

I've had a Tassimo latte before and it was perfect. Hot, tasty and fast. Exactly what I need.

DH and I have been considering buying one of these for a while. I have tried it at a friends party and loved all the specialty coffees it can me. Would love one of my own :)

Wow, I could list the reasons why I want a Tassimo machine and take up the equivalent of a whole novel but the one true reason is that I just love a quality cup of coffee. I'm not a big fan of waiting in line at a coffee house for a cup that costs more than my outfit so when I first tried a Tassimo coffee I was in heaven. It just doesn't get much better than having a deluxe freshly perked coffee, brewed in under a minute right from my own kitchen at a great price. I would love to win one of my own so thank you for the chance.

Had to come back and say THANK YOU! One happy girl here:) Now my guests will have coffee that tastes like coffee! (but mostly I will drink coffee until my hands shake) Can't wait!
