    Just seeing if anyone has seen any. Preferably not for **** pricing. Trying to help a friend that is looking for a case, half a case at a minimal. Will drive withing 45-50 miles of the city if anyone can help with some guidance.

    also, if you're willing to drive that far, watch the indiana thread too, as NWI is your best bet for low prices though the supply is a lot lower.

    Well, just be sure to start a new thread next week then! :stuck_out_tongue:

    Fwiw, there's a report button here for a reason. If you see duplicate threads that just clutter the forum up, report them and the mods will take action (if appropriate).

    Since you were so kind to explain the Report function, I've reported you as your avatar looks like it was drawn with MSpaint. :wink:

    It's only going for that much in the city. Out in the burbs its $21.99 a 4-pack. Find your way out to buffalo grove/Schaumburg/Arlington heights area and it wasn't too hard to find a week and a half ago.

    I was in NWI this past weekend and I actually found a place selling 4 packs for $16.99. I am all stocked up so I didn't grab any, but they were down to about half a case. It was also the only store of about 5 I stopped at that had it in stock.

    Saturday morning Lively liquors in Elk Grove Village put a case in the walk in cooler. Don't know how much it cost. They probably still have some. Despite being a "craft beer HQ" I've only ever seen anyone buy Miller Lite.

    Dominicks on Chicago/Damen had a case worth in a cooler on the back wall late last night. No price listed, but they also had Madame Rose for $19.99, so it can't be too bad.
