A well-stocked break room is essential for keeping LEOs fueled, hydrated and ready for the next call. Having easy access to healthy snacks, coffee, water and disposable essentials can make a big difference in morale and efficiency.
Buying in bulk and setting up subscription orders can help agencies save money and ensure these essentials are always available. Public safety agencies and departments can sign up for a free Amazon business account to save even more with quantity discounts, free shipping and recurring deliveries. And anyone with an Amazon Prime subscription can enjoy subscribe-and-save deals and member discounts like 10% off hundreds of groceries. Try a week of Amazon Prime for just $1.99 and stock your own pantry with grab-and-go options to stay fueled during your shift.
From coffee pods to hydration options, snacks and paper goods, here are some key products to keep your station break room well-stocked and running smoothly.
Caffeinate: Brew savings daily
A steady supply of coffee is a must for any break room. Stocking up on K-cups or ground coffee in bulk ensures crews have the caffeine they need to stay alert. Subscription options can help cut costs and prevent last-minute supply runs.
If your break room has a Keurig coffee maker, odds are you probably burn through K-cups. Subscribing for regular K-cup delivery will save you 5% or 15% if buying 5 or more items. Save even more (and save the planet!) by purchasing reusable K-cups and ground coffee.

Snack on savings
Long shifts demand convenient, energy-boosting snacks. Nut bars, trail mix and other grab-and-go options keep first responders fueled without the crash. Subscription discounts make it easy to keep the break room stocked. Fitness enthusiast favorite KIND bars, for example, are specially priced at 5% off for subscriptions (5% off if buying 5 or more packs). Additionally, you can take an additional 25% off coupon on your first subscription, for huge savings on these snacks.

Hydrate without the hassle
Hydration should not be overlooked in a break room — it’s a good idea to over supply water for incoming crews. A great option here is the Pure Life 8oz water bottle 24 pack, priced under $5 with 5% off as a subscription product on Amazon.
Stock up on:
No mess, no stress paper goods
Paper plates and cutlery are another break room essential. For this, I look for an all-in-one option, such as the Gezond 350-piece compostable paper plate and cutlery set. This set covers all the bases for multiple people and is environmentally friendly, with a discount for a subscription purchase.
Stock up on:
Fed and hydrated crews are productive crews! Don’t skimp on keeping that break room well stocked and accommodating to incoming and outgoing personnel. It’s essential for first responders to have a place to be able to unwind and take a moment for themselves. Keep them taken care of by having essential purchases ready to go.
