    Went to Binnys Hermosa at about 9:30. No one there -- even thought they were closed by the look of the parking lot. Limit 1x 4pk OR 1x 750. Mr. Binny said they got more in than they did last year.

    Half-hour ago Willowbrook Binny's had about 1 case of 4 packs left. Your choice: 1 four pack; or one bomber and a single 12oz. $26 for the 4 pack. $22 + 4 for the bomber single combo. Looked like six or so bombers left.

    Thanks! Had to work and was worried it would be gone by time I got out. One 4 pack and case of bombers left

    Some places like the smaller whole foods might be getting thier beers later in the week. DePaul buyer said Tuesday if people are looking not to hunt for things. LP Binny's sold out basically when they opened. My guess its the same for most big stores.

    I picked some up at the St. Charles Binnys back around 2PM. There was still quite a bit at the service desk. Limit of one four pack or 2 singles and 1 bomber.

    I'm not sure, but this is going to keep popping up this week. As was mentioned above, some WF will still get it in, and Jewel is putting theirs on sale on Monday (they're only getting 4-packs, no 750's). Jewel was a gold mine for me last year.

    I got 3 4-packs and 2 750's so I think I'm done. I may swing by Jewel for another 4-pack on Monday, but it depends on how my day goes.

    Mets suck. :stuck_out_tongue:

    But like @croush said Jewel/Whole Foods will be your best bet. Whereabouts in Chicagoland are you?

    Jewel was so great last year - I was offered a whole case at one store ... :grimacing:

    NW Indiana will be getting their allocations this week. Depending on the store, it could be any day this week.
