SAVE $50: Normally $169.99, the Keurig K-Elite coffee maker is on sale at Walmart for just $119.99 as of May 7 — that’s a 29% savings.
College has a way of turning casual coffee drinkers into all-out caffeine fiends, so no matter how the coming school year shakes out, the Class of 2021 graduate in your life is sure to appreciate the gift of a really nice coffee maker.
Keurig’s K-Elite model from 2018 is still one of the fanciest machines in its lineup (not to mention a Mashable fave), and as of May 7, Walmart had it on sale for a mere $119.99 — that’s almost 30% off its suggested retail price of $169.99. Choose from three metallic-y finishes that’ll go with virtually any dorm room aesthetic: Brushed Gold, Brushed Silver, or Brushed Slate (a warmer-toned gray).

(The K-Elite is also on sale on Keurig’s website, FWIW, but Walmart has managed to beat its pricing by a solid $10.)
Like any single-serve Keurig, the K-Elite makes whipping up a quick cup of coffee a breeze — just fill it with water, pop in your favorite K-Cup pod, pick a brew strength and cup size (4, 6, 8, 10, or 12 ounces), and let the machine do its thing. But compared to some of the brand’s entry-level and mid-range models, the K-Elite kicks things up several notches with its massive 75-ounce reservoir, iced coffee setting, sub-1 minute brew time, and hot water button — perfect for tea, Easy Mac, soup, and instant oatmeal.
Plus, its inclusion of Keurig’s Quiet Brew technology means no roommates get woken up when someone’s brewing coffee before an 8 a.m. lecture.
Hit the blue button below to order one while it’s still on sale, and don’t forget to pick up some K-Cups while you’re at it. (Click here to see which blends Walmart’s got in stock.)
