Weller's SR

[samboh]

May I ask a pricing question in this forum?

[starhopper]

What's the question?

[smokinjoe]

Business, or pleasure?

I find it at around 18 here

$18 in Houston. Anyone know the price at Costco for 1.75 L?

That depends entirely on which Costco you go to. Some don't sell WSR. Some are not allowed to sell ANY liquor. We have traveled all over the country but have never seen WSR at a Costco, including those in Louisville and Lexington.

THANK YOU.

1.75L is $31.50 at Spec's here in Houston. This price works for me. 

Thanks to all.

It's been kinda weird around where I live the last few months or so. OWA and Weller 12 have been showing up on the shelves at a few places occasionally, but no Weller SR. Usually it's the opposite. When it was available, prices were all over the place. Anywhere from $18.99 to $29.99  for a 750. One store had Weller SR and OWA  both priced at $23.99.  (Of course I bought a couple OWA's. )  I bought a bottle of Weller SR when I was on vacation down south this past spring for $21.99, just because there hasn't been any around home for a while. Farther down the road, I could have bought a handle for $23.99. On a more positive note, on the way back home, I stopped at a small store that had one bottle of Weller 12 left. Same price I paid for the Weller SR earlier in our trip. $21.99. Ya' just never know.

Cheers! Joe

Weller SR (750ml) sells for $12.99 at the closest store to me, and five miles away sells for $15.99 - and 7 miles away it's $18.99 - so go figure!

FWIW, I was somewhat in your neck of the woods when I found the handle for $23.99.

The cheapest I've found the 1.75ml was $26.99 - bought it of course!

$26.99 for 1.75mL? At that cost per volume, you'd be shelling out ~$11,500 for a 750mL. Obviously you meant liters, not milliliters, but saw it and wondered how much a bottle at that price per volume would cost.

WLSR has been readily available near me, $12.99 to $15.99.  OWA and WL12, not so much.

Ooops - you're right...got my liters and milliliters mixed up! I think I had a little too much ETL tonite after getting home from work!

Odd. Thanks, Joe.
