August is the calm before the (pumpkin spice-flavored) storm.
Once September rolls in, U.S. mornings get busier, routines get tighter, and your favorite coffee blends tend to go out of stock—fast. Whether you're gearing up for school drop-offs, office meetings, or just cooler weather vibes, now’s the perfect time to stock up on coffee.
And trust us—you don’t want to be caffeine-deprived during your first 7 a.m. Zoom of the season.
1. Take Inventory of What You Really Drink
Before you buy more, ask yourself:
-
Which flavors do I reach for most?
- Do I drink more coffee when it's cold out?
-
Am I brewing just for me—or the whole household?
Start by making a list of your favorite blends and how many K-Cups you go through weekly. Most U.S. coffee lovers average 1–2 K-Cups per day, which adds up quickly in the fall.
2. Buy Seasonal Staples in Advance
Some flavors always spike in demand once the weather cools:
-
French Roast (for early mornings and long workdays)
-
Hazelnut & Salted Caramel (comfort in a cup)
-
Pumpkin Spice & Fall Flavors (limited supply!)
Buying now means less scrambling later—and ensures you get the good stuff before it disappears.
3. Go Bulk, Save More
Fall is the season of routine, and routine = more coffee.
Stocking up on 48- or 72-count boxes now saves you:
-
Time (no emergency grocery runs)
-
Money (bulk = better price per pod)
-
Stress (nothing worse than waking up to an empty box)
We recommend:
-
Day to Day Coffee Medium Roast
-
Day to Day Coffee Light Roast
-
Flavored variety packs if you like to mix it up
4. Don’t Forget Office & Remote Setups
Back-to-office traffic is real this time of year—and remote workers are also doubling down on their home brewers. If you work from home (or manage a team), stocking up early can prevent mid-month chaos.
Popular for work setups:
-
Breakfast Blend K-Cups
-
Dark Roast + Oat Milk combos
-
Single-serve flavored packs for team variety
