Are you sure it's a 5lb can? All the packages seem to be downsizing the past 6 months, milk is in 3 quart jugs, coffee in 4 lb cans, ice cream in 4 quart pails, etc.

Folgers 5lb can up here is around $14 - 16.00 a can but we can get Fred Meyers for about $6.00.
I cant tell the difference myself but I would jump on $4.77.

Last Folgers I bought about 3 weeks ago was 2lb2.5oz. It cost over $6. I would snap up 5lb for 4.77 but would make sure it is 5lb.

Not a Folgers drinker but I've never seen a 5 lb. can of coffee. If it was 5 lbs. for that price that's a good deal. I don't see a 5 lb. can listed on their site.

5 lbs of something would equal 80 ounces. I've never seen a can of coffee that weighed 80 ounces. Most of the ones I remember are around 35 ounces.
Just saying....

Not 5lb cans, I guess I knew that. Used to be 3lb.
OK, I fell for it. The new weight of Folgers looks now to be 27.8oz. The can looks to be the same as always. Fool me once....

Eight O'clock was on sale at the dollar store last week.
Try it and you might just forget you ever liked Folgers...

33.9 oz is on sale for $5.00 at Walmart and has been for a few weeks. I have been grabbing 1 or 2 everytime I go there because before that it was $7.50+ before the sale. I just took out an old empty $7.50+ can I was using for storage and it was 33.9 oz also. I am sure it is smaller then a year of so ago, but it is the same size it was a month ago and it does cost $2.50 less. I consider that a good deal.

We drink the Colombian blend exclusively. Recently found it for 6 dollars at C&R and 5 dollars at IGA. Usually it's 10.48 at IGA and 9 at C&R. Needless to say, I stocked up. We are big coffee drinkers.

Eight O'clock is the one I love. Best coffee I've found. I buy the whole beans. I get the 12oz bags. They are $4.99 each. They have buy one get one free sales about every other month, this is when I stock up. Also inside almost every bag you will find a $1 off coupon. Its printed on the inside of the bag, so you have to cut it open. I just love a good bargain.

I grew up drinking Folgers, can't stand it now. That is okay, I live where they grow some of the best coffee in the world, and it only costs about 3 dollars a pound for the good stuff.
