    Probably better off selling the kid. Those costs savings over the course of the year will give you a lot more purchasing power.

    Hard to know. They are now measured in BCBVBS Units instead of VR units.

    You'll need to go to the annual fundraiser Kegs for Kids to figure that out....

    With all dem variants I’ll be passing on regular to avoid sticker shock as well. Maybe even the Wheatwine

    Fingers crossed for less regular and more variants.

    I mean, I witnessed this last year and I feel in a safe enough place now to make fun of it. Time and beer heals all (mostly time).

    I hope that's not even an option at Binnys. Hand people a preset case for $300 or whatever and stop taking four fucking hours to get through that line.

    They damn near convinced people in Indiana at a Big Reds this is what they should do (even though they had an option to just pick and choose), and incentivized by offering a discount for all of it. The line took 3 times as long because they allowed you to shop for other alcohol needs while there, and they would only let X people into the store at once. What an aweful idea letting people buy other shit. Just get the BC, and GTFO.

    Take away Binny’s 20% upcharge on regular and we can talk

    You get more access to every variant at Binnys. Upcharge worth it. no question about it.

    I'm not trying to be a prick, but I swear you were one of the people last year mentioning walking into several small stores and getting multiple variants without going to Binny's.

    Am I remembering incorrectly, or are these two comments at odds?

    That is why Binnys queues you up through the beer aisles so you can shop while you wait

    Totally untrue for me last year. I waited a long time at binnys after hitting an event store jewel first, i’m maybe 40 something back and walked out with only coffee. Later found out that some local places had a ton of variants. I will be more than likely be avoiding binnys for BC this year, their prices don’t help either.

    No its probably true. I skipped LP last year based on the line. I bought it all at different places. Doesn't make my comment about availability at binnys untrue.
