My self imposed spending limit was $20 for it but I'd probably fork over the extra $4 for the PS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcpfratn Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I think I'd have to try a PS WSR given the price of entry. Is it a single barrel? I've yet to see one.

I’ve only ever seen one in my area since most stores choose OWA as a PS if they can get it. Of course OWA PS bottles don’t last long even with purchase limits, but the PS WSR barrel hung around for several weeks a few years ago when one of my favorite stores got one. Of course WSR is available most of the time in my area anyway, while OWA only comes around in any quantity in the fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the talk the last few days I'd never heard of a PS WSR either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnbowljoe Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 A store I used to frequent has done a number of ps Weller SR’s over the last ten years or twelve years. All were decent, and a couple were great. One time they bought three barrels that they had blended together and bottled in 1.75’s. Their latest one was towards the end of last year. I passed because their price was way too high IMHO. Biba! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_Loblaw Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Passed on Buffalo Trace at $19.99. Great price and I will likely pick some up in the near future for some summer drinking. I am just trying not to stock pile anything at the moment, will buy when I am ready to open and drink. That said, I think there is a case discount so there is a good chance I will just be a hypocrite on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kemosabe Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I passed on 2 bottles of High West MWND @ $99 each. Saw them somewhere in New Mexico. I have a couple in the bunker already that I grabbed years ago when the price was lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guss West Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 FOMO NOMO. Unprecedented pass on the best package store in my territory. Went by it twice without stopping. Can't lie, it stung a little. The wallet was happy, though. I woke up a couple weeks ago to the realization that I probably don't need to buy another bottle in my lifetime. Ouch. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry in WashDC Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 While store-hopping and picking up JB BIB, JB Distillers Cut, and OGD BIB (all at $20-21, and I do mean "ALL" - as the trunk was empty), I saw a nice shelving of Baker's "ON SALE" at $66, down from $71. Since Virginia ABC sells it at $60 and always has it, as do I, I did pass. I like that store so I said nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vosgar Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Passed on a 6 bottle package consisting of one each of all the VW's for the low, low price of $7499.99. Same store had RHF for $149.99, which I reminded the clerk I had bought from them for $100 less just a few years ago. Just got the "deer in the headlights" look 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryT Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Passed on WTKS in the new bottle. Sad to see the old bottle gone Also had to pass on OGD114, although if I were passing through DFW by car rather than plane, I might have stocked up ($23.69 cash price, or $21.90 for a case!) Also was surprised to see Baby Saz at the same store for sub-$26 cash price (less than Ritt BIB). Need to remember to travel with larger luggage next time 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
