    Downtown Haskell's has KBS in stock as well. However, they are releasing it @ 3:00 today, with a limit of 1 bottle per person. Damn meetings are keeping me from heading over. Enjoy!

    Total Wine in Maple Grove had a 1 4 pack limit on KBS. You may want to call first to see if it is still in stock.

    And they've all gone out the door.

    Seems like Wednesday is the day for much of the non-TW south metro.

    I'm staying in Burnsville Wednesday night to catch a flight Thursday morning...any places I should look for it? Blue Max is my usual go to.

    Wednesday night might be tough. I would expect it to disappear in less than two hours anywhere it lands. Less than that at places like Blue Max. Maybe it might be overlooked at places like Lunds & Byerly's or Cub.

    It seems to me...if you want to get some this year, you may be able to get it with not a ton of issue...especially 4 packs. I have seen a lot of that today. Not many places with 4 packs last year.

    Anybody know what cost is on KBS for the stores? Wondering how much they are making by selling individuals vs 4 pks

    Usually, stores don't make more by selling them in singles vs. 4pks. The reasoning for the singles vs 4pks is that at that high of a price point, singles are easier to sell. Depending on how long these bottles sit on the shelves is how the "singles" price point gets figured out. Nobody knows which bottles will be bought immediately, and which ones will sit awhile.

    $5.99-$6.49 seems legit for a normal pricing strategy.

    Stores most certainly make more by breaking up 4/6 packs, it is just a pain to do.
