The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Dang, you guys are merciless....I love it!

 

It would hit today when I am at home and can't get out.... frickn, frackn.... Hope my beer guy comes through for me so I can at least get one.

 

It only hit my store for some reason. Everywhere else in Houston should be Friday. I would have messaged you but it was gone in about an hour and didn't show up anywhere else in town.

Edit: Just checked the Southwest forum, looks like a few other places got it.

 

Hint #3 I have more wants that my target has listed

 

I can't like this post enough!

 

ISO: Anything Trillium!!!

 

Hint #1 - shipping to a state that borders water
Hint #2 - shipping to a state that does not begin with a vowel
Hint #3 - my target's state is not the name of a Monopoly property
Hint #4 - while there are two senders in this BIF who share a first name with their target, I am not one of them.
Hint #5 - my target either participated in both of the prior two rounds of the Locals, or participated in neither

 

We need to avoid posting below each other... I'm not sure which avatar is worse.

 

Yes, and I am hoping that it will be a revolutionary experience for my target.

Just found them last week. Huge selection and had the few things that my normal spot doesn't Looks like some of the stuff on the shelves has been there for a while though... (not such a big deal for the stouts etc.) Thanks for the rec!

Don't get too "wrapped up" in the clue. If you think too hard, you might go a little loony...

Actually, I think it is the BW that Kevin is talking about. Although I also think that I am getting confused too...

 

Based on the first half of this post, we're "committed" to talking about the same beer.

 

Should I get mine from the BM thread?

 

My first thought was "BM thread? that sounds dangerous" and then realized which avatar you were talking about :-)

 

For some reason I liked this, THEN checked my spreadsheet and saw there's no way I'm your target (since we border)

OOPS

 

Hint 1: Shipping South
Hint 2: You updated your wants yesterday with something I planned on sending to you regardless of if it was on your wants.
Hint 3 (new hint): Your state doesn't border any major body of water or start with a vowel

I still have my "possible sender" list at 14 people from 12 states.... way too difficult for me to update my wants because I have no clue what to pick! If I get time tonight I might look at one or two breweries in each of those states and just add a few things just to be safe, though.

 

I hope my target likes pumpkin beers. Maybe 3 different styles is too much for one box?

 

FTFY

 

HINT #3 - I can hit 16 of my targets wants from my cellar, most are not local though (what to do)?

 

Personally if I had that "problem", I'd probably send a few of them and fill the rest with local stuff, possibly more if they are also not local to the target

 

If you are asking me? Send the wants and the local wants
