I really enjoy their Colombian Peaks blend. Walmart in Warsaw sold it for a while. The last time I checked, they stopped carrying it.

Their supply from Mikes house must have run out!

$15 a pound is a bit steep imho.

Anybody know what the shelf life of coffee is(stored in original sealed package)?

ShopRite is now selling Eight O'Clock coffee (11.5 oz.) @3.24/bag.

Depends on your tastes. I can start tasting coffee trailing off within a few days of being opened, within about 10 days of being sealed in an airtight container, and after a few weeks sealed in original packaging. That said, I have close friends who love coffee that will keep bags they like for ages. They notice no difference.

what's the date on the bags you have? That might give you an idea. Also, from experience, the coffee will go on sale again. Count the weeks between sales... it is probably on a cycle that you can figure out.
