husband bought wrong kind of coffee again
Quote from Pinkrosebud1972 on January 30, 2020, 1:45 amUgh, just got back from target. Was supposed to pick up the expensive cold brew our usual place has, the one in the blue bag. Instead, he grabbed the instant granules. Said he thought it was the same. It’s literally coffee dust. Cost $18. Now the kids are asking for snacks and I just want to sit down for five minutes before I have to start dinner. It’s only 4:30. Has anyone else dealt with this kind of thing?

Quote from Elizabeth1965 on February 2, 2020, 12:58 am@Pinkrosebud1972 Oh no, instant granules! That's a rough substitute for cold brew. My husband did something similar with tea last week, grabbed decaf by mistake. So frustrating!

Quote from Kim1999 on February 4, 2020, 4:46 amSeriously @Pinkrosebud1972, the blue bag cold brew is the best! Instant coffee just doesn't hit the same. Hope he can run back out for the right stuff.

Quote from Jules1989 on February 8, 2020, 6:45 am@Pinkrosebud1972 That's the worst when you're craving a specific coffee and get instant. At least it was a well-intentioned mistake, I guess? Still, bummer!

Quote from Serenegarnet on February 9, 2020, 8:43 pm@Pinkrosebud1972 Oh gosh, instant granules! My husband once bought decaf thinking it was regular. I had to just power through it with extra creamer.

Quote from Pineflight on February 10, 2020, 9:20 pm@Pinkrosebud1972 I get it, the blue bag cold brew is legit. Instant coffee is just… not the same at all. Hope you can get the good stuff soon!

Quote from Dustspire on February 11, 2020, 5:40 pm@Pinkrosebud1972 Instant coffee when you wanted that fancy cold brew? Total bummer. I’d be so disappointed too, especially after a Target run.

Quote from LuckySong on February 12, 2020, 3:03 pm@Post4 I know exactly what you mean about the blue bag cold brew! It's the best. Instant coffee is just so... grainy. I usually end up adding a ton of creamer and sugar to try and make it work.
