    Scored a bottle of Weller 12 today... Behind the counter, out of sight.

    Me: Got any of the good stuff? Blantons?
    Him: For you, Weller 12.
    Me: I can't afford to pay you $199 for it.
    Him: What do you want to pay?
    Me: Last time I bought Weller 12 I paid $33.
    Him: <laughs>
    Him: What do you want to pay?
    Me: What you need to get?
    Him: Let's scan it and see....
    Scan: $89.99+tax
    Him: How about $60 cash? I remember you brought your friends with you last time.
    Me: I think you took most of my cash for the Buffalo Trace... Let's see... <count to $57>
    Him: $57 is ok..
    Me: Pleasure doing business with you. See you next Friday. Save me something good.

    Still no Blantons anywhere.

    Look! Just because we're bereaved, that doesn't make us saps!

    Well, it ain't cheap to ship anything overnight. Presumably they pack it in dry ice...so I'm sure there is a "hazmat" fee with it. Plus it's Blue Bell, so they may have to pay actual "hazmat" fees to cover the Listeria.

    Yea, so you're guy got any more Weller 12? Maybe you can PM me and let me know? I'm gonna be in N. Texas for mother's day to see my mom (in Dallas) and the wife's mom (south of Ft. Worth)...I'm down for at least one and maybe two bottles at $90 + Tax. I'd rather pay tax in Texas than Chicago...

    A good friend was married last year. At the reception afterwards, I made milkshakes with that combo for the attendees.

    It was well-received.

    Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon 93 Proof? Looked on the PA website and one of the state stores near me supposedly has 31 bottles.

    I’m thinking the wife and I may well take a bourbon tour at the end of the summer/early fall this year. In hopes I can score a few things from the source.
    Meh, when you mix it with some RC Cola it all tastes the same.
    Think for yourself. Question authority.
