    I would love to win Keurig Special Edition Brewing System because I want to experience a good coffee moment. Keurig is a very popular in demand product which I am dreaming of. I just wish to have one in my kitchen, due to tight budget I have to prioritize my children’s needs. This would be a great gift for me. Goodluck all ❤️ReplyCancel

  • Sandra VanHoey

    This may be the wrong question for a keurig which I would love to have by the way. My daughter has one and it makes super coffee. The GC I would love to get my granddaughter a birthday presentReplyCancel

  • Lisa Brown

    It is easy to use and I am the only one who drinks coffee, so single serve brewers are best for this household. We could use the Verizon FiOS in this house; looks like good rates and a way to keep everyone entertained.ReplyCancel

So we go to the park, on hikes, swimming, and I usually sign her up for some sort of class. I think we’re doing gymnastics this year!ReplyCancel
