How did the price compare to Dan's 'Bait Price'?

Oh sorry - I thought you meant an independent local liquor store.

Nah, just a Dans near work that happened to have stock.

Malvern had 10 botts in Store - not any longer - $39.56 after CR / Wish - great price IMHO. I have to drive to get them but such is life.

 

[coriander]

$39.56 after CR / Wish.

Just looked at CR site - under guidelines for DM it says "Rewards may not be payable if you pay by gift card or if you purchase a gift card"
Confirming you bought Egift cards at Woolies through CR then used cards at DM, again through CR?

Yes always use Wish and have always received the rebates - but I buy them at RACV or Groupon.

He's just saying you smell

 

[tuapekastar]

Hoping to be there but no certain starter at this stage.

 

[samh004]

I shall be bringing this along. Perhaps past its prime so I hope it still has enough to give.

Appears to be a very big bottle - is it a magnum?

No sorry, just got a little up close and personal with my iPhone

He is very generous...

Hey Sam, you should get Rowly to come...

Hey Sam, you should get Rowly to come...

He flies back to HKG on the 14th (ZQN-AKL on NZ in Y, AKL-SYD on EK in F, SYD-HKG on CX in J). Doubt he'd manage to get back down to MEL a week later to drink Champagne but I shall mention it to him.
