Turning into printers these things, have you seen the cost of capsules?

You seem a little hyped. Maybe too much coffee? I compare this to grounding my own coffee which works out about 2-3p a cup. The flavour is miles better and its cheaper. As for Costa, I wouldn't know how their interpretation of coffee taste like as I've never been to one. I do hear that Costa give their floor shavings to Aldi, maybe that's why you get them so cheap. So as for letting other people make their minds up, I don't mind that. But it doesn't stop me from sharing my experience and view.

These products suffer from the 'Printer Cartridge Cost Syndrome'. Even if they gave these away free, it would still be expensive.

Compared to what? Going to costa and paying £3 or using instant for 10p a cup? it's decent coffee in the pods and the ones we use (copies from Aldi) are £1.79 for 10 capsules... 18p a cup is pretty good to me. But hey you enjoy your floor sweepings, you're obviously happy with them, in the meantime why not let others decide for themselves. :-) chin chin
Also better price and has a built in brita filter unlike the vivy

Probably worth putting 'Tassimo Vivy TAS1252GB' in the title or at least 'Tassimo'

Yep like Ink the coffee pods are ridiculous prices compared to actually just grinding your own and making a proper cup of coffee!

A reasonable analogy, as the pods are not cheap, but re printing depends what type of printer you have. Take my Epson Office BX305FW Plus (or similar which take same T1295 inkjet carts). The genuine Epson inkjets are truly horrendous price around 30+ quid for CMYK set. A year ago I tried some cheapies - I mean 'cheapies'! 14 'high capacity' carts for just over 8 quid, 3 sets 4 plus 2 extra black. I haven't looked back since (I print lots). Print quality is as good as orig provided you follow instructions, shake well before replacement etc. What's even better 14 now just £6.89 on a fav online site. All sealed in nice box. Many dismiss them because printer can come up with error code, simple, switch off, switch on and away you go! I have never spent so little on inkjet cartridges for years (and I mean years!).
