So walked into a liquor store that is next door to a doggy daycare we used to take our dogs to (when we lived in that neighborhood). They have ALL (and I really mean all) the allocated and hard to find whiskies. Want Eagle Double Rare (and have $15K burning a hole in your pocket)? They got it. Pappy's? Heaven Hill 18? Blanton's? Stagg? Weller? Rock Hill Farms? Elmer? They had it all. Could have wiped out my entire wishlist at once.
The store has everything market priced (so way above MSRP), but the guys there seem to really know whiskey and the market. Since they want to make sales, and not have a museum, I was happy to hear that they'd be willing to flex on price (especially if buying more than one bottle) and sell things for a bit below market.
I got the CFO to support me buying a few ones I've been looking for. Basically bought 2 bottles and got the 3rd one free with the discounts they gave. So all above MSRP, but below the secondary pricing by enough to make it a fair deal. After today, I'm going to take a break from adding to the collection for a few months. Need to save money for truck mods
10 year wedding anniversary is next year... Which one should I save for that occasion?
