I was surprised when a lady kept emailing me to and oft about a coffee machine. Initially, I thought she was interested, then I thought she is out to play a prank on me.

So, I crudely told her that this coffee machine is only $30, it is not worth your time to think so much on it and spend so much time to compare coffee makers on which is the best deal. She then launch into a lengthy lecture on how we all must be prudent and spend every penny wisely...

From that moment onwards, I know that the person is real and it is probably that aunties that is so shrewd at shopping that they would spend hours just to save that few pennies.

Sometimes, I wondered if it is worth all the trouble, then again, it might be just a hobby to them. To some of us, hobby is to relaxed some place and enjoy a cuppa.

For them, it is to get the best possible deal out of everything they buy...

Here is how you count your cost, actual, variable and indirect. If you really want to find cheap coffee makers, then using these variables would get you a more accurate findings.

Now, supposed you saw a bunn coffee maker at the retail mall, it is selling at $50, you also saw one online at amazon, selling at $60, which one is cheaper?

If you would to go to the mall, you need to spend time driving there again, your time is wasted, then you need to spend money on parking and maybe even food, and that has not even factor in your petrol cost.

Moreover, over at amazon, they do free shipping from time to time, so your only cost is $60 for that bunn coffee maker.

This is to highlight that do not brand cheap coffee makers just by the published rate, look at all factors before deciding on the ones that are really cheaper...
