    Finally had some downtime at work, so I got my potential sender spreadsheet updated. Currently at 7 possible senders. No new additions to my target's box since my last post...I've been swamped with pre-Thanksgiving prep (my wife and I are hosting for the first time ever :grimacing:).

    Looks like I've got all of my target's stouts ready to go (still waiting on one more to hit Texas any day now). After this weekend I'll start building a second box of other/style wants!

    Hint: my target's BA name has more letters than mine.

    takes my potential senders down to five.

    My box will be going out to my target on Monday. It's 100% large format bottles so far (22oz/750ml), but I'm gonna try to sneak some little guys in there as well.

    I have no idea who is sending to me. I still have 12 possibles on my list.

    At 200oz of stouts for my Target and 5 wants acquired. I'm heading to NC for the holiday so I'm hoping to pick up more goodies that I can't get here in Atlanta.
