Coffee is my ultimate lifeline. Whether I’m powering through early classes, surviving late-night homework sessions, or just making it to my next club meeting, caffeine is the center of my dorm life

Over the past couple of years, I’ve been using the Keurig K-Iced Coffee Maker (currently $69, or $10 off at Walmart for Black Friday). I absolutely love it because it lets me switch between hot coffee and iced lattes depending on my mood or the weather. It’s honestly one of my favorite purchases ever for college.

I know space is gold in most dorms and not everyone has room for something like the K-Iced. That’s why I was so excited to see that the Keurig K-Mini Go Single-Serve Coffee Maker is a massive 50% off at Target for Black Friday. It’s originally $99.99, but you can grab it for just $49.99, which is such an amazing deal for a dorm-friendly coffee maker!

The K-Mini Go is perfect for small spaces — it’s less than 5 inches wide, so it fits practically anywhere. It offers 8-, 10-, or 12-ounce brews and has a “Strong” brew option for those mornings when you need that extra kick. While I personally love my K-Iced for its versatility, I can see the K-Mini Go being the ideal choice for anyone who wants something compact, simple, and affordable.

Even though I’m not snagging the K-Mini Go myself (I’m totally satisfied with my K-Iced setup), I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a budget-friendly way to upgrade their dorm experience. Coffee makers like this save you so much money and time — you won’t have to rely on pricey coffee shops or wait in long lines before class. Plus, the convenience of brewing at home means you can enjoy your coffee in your pajamas while you get ready for class.

If you’ve been thinking about getting a coffee maker for your dorm, this Black Friday deal is an awesome opportunity to buy one. No matter whether you go with the K-Mini Go or something like the K-Iced, having a Keurig in your dorm will make your life so much easier — and more caffeinated.
