    These abbreviations are getting out of control.

    I didn't have a good experience with the manager. The pricing was wrong and the lady running the register asked for the non smiling and non thankful manager. Did even say sorry for your inconvenience! Ugh. I am disappointed.

    I think you meant TA^2GO^2C. Now isn't this so much more simple?

    Less than 1 week for them to get Cuvee Rene upon my (and probably others) request. Way to go. $10 is hard to beat too (although we should all mob their CV supply so they buy more and get a volume discount and mark it down to $9). They also have Schells Pils mixer for $12 and Blakkr for $16 or 17. I love you TW. You're sales people are so helpful they're almost too helpful (in a good way. keep it up)

    Now I want to see Hanssen's Oud Guezue 750's for ~$17 and Ill be the happiest person on BA.

    Also, it makes sense since they're a new store, but all their beer is dated recently, most if it from Feb or early March. blakkr was 3/4, coffee bender from 2/24 and day tripper was 3/5. Go get your hoppy beery goodness

    I used to shop at Total Wines' a lot down in Florida. They became too well known and it was impossible to get any major release there. When cigar city released Marshal Zhukov, most stores only got a one case. There were so many people that knew the distributors schedule that the day it arrived there were 30 people in line to get 12 bottles. I had a much better time building relationships with the local mom and pops.

    Just saw the "Grand Opening" wrap on the Pioneer Press this morning... Did I miss something? Seems like Deja Vu... Nonetheless did they have anything special for this "Re-Grand Opening"?

    Is the Bloomington open yet? I drove by it on 494 but couldn't tell.

    Nope. What a joke. When it does open, remember why it took so long (MLBA). Its directly related to the Sunday sales debate and the MLBA is anti-consumer.

    Was everything up to this point a "soft" opening in Roseville?

    At least Total wine is here to shake the MN liquor industry up. They kinda deserve it for not changing for so many years...

    Since apparently your customers are opposed to Sunday sales I would object to their characterization as awesome. Either that or you don't much about your customers. But thanks for shilling your wares in a thread not about your store.

    I knew I should have kicked you in the shins yesterdays just because.

    What is happening here? SLL doesn't support Sunday sales? I knew there was a reason i stopped following them on Twitter. But couldn't remember.
