I fail to see why bringing home 3 1.75 litre bottles of liquor home from Costco

could be such an indicting offence! Konb Creek (9 year aged) for $17.77 is a bargain at twice the price. So you have to buy that. Then you need the requisite Scotch (Johnny Red) for HER parents (read: dad). Then the ladies always like bloody mary's .. so Tito's Vodka (sublime)for $16.00 is another steal. All told, $69.00 + tax for 5.25 litres of premium booze.

Of course we needed wine for the Xmas dinner, then the Bailey's (for the effin' women!). Personally, I enjoy a slight tipple of Drambuie as a nightcap.

So I had me boot stuffed with nothing but liquor, is that such a big deal?

A case of the Sam Adams "Holiday Specials" were at an irresistible price of $22.00, so I bought 3. I'm thinking of New Year's as well, so I think I should get credit for planning ahead.

Then when I thought of New Year's I automatically thought, "Champagne". This wasn't on sale so I only bought 2 bottles.

I then noticed that they had limes at a great price. http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/rubchin.gif what goes with limes?

So, I bought a 1.75 litre bottle of Tanqueray and some tonic water (meh)

but what makes it a holiday special?

[Chief Arrowhead]

Boston Lager ( the basic)
Chocolate Bock
Old Fezziwig Ale
White Christmas
Winter Lager
Holiday Porter

None of them all that special for theEnglish palate, I reckon, but kind of fun to buy them all at one time,
