    Went to the Jewel at Clark & Division. They had one case, and then when they opened it it only had 10 bottles. Geeze. Luckily I was one of the first 10 people, but felt bad for those that got into a short line and still didn't get any.

    Pretty sure I saw some Jewel employees egging cars and tripping old ladies too. On second thought, that might have been Whole Foods.

    So you guys are really giving people working the graveyard shift at Jewel making $12/hr shit for not knowing about 1 of about 10,000 inventory items they carry?

    No, more aimed at the corporation as a whole, not the little guys. I’ve been around craft a long time, and of course I know nothing, just trying to find the humor in all of this. Much apologies and forgiveness

    Damn, I just bought 2. I'm pretty sure I was the first one there. I didn't ask about limits or amounts. The guy helping me really had no idea about it and just ask me how many I wanted, but I couldn't justify more than 2 at this point. Glad you were able to grab some.

    Naper Blvd had roughly 2 1/2 cases (employee sales?), limit 1. About 35 people in line at open, so a few people weren't going to be happy.

    Jewel in Wheaton at Danada got five cases and did limit two with about 45-50 people in line. The first 30 people got two and the other 15-20 didn't get any.

    Just ran out in River forest. Everyone made a bee line to Jewel after the WF variants debacle. Looks like they had 3 cases. Heard they started selling at 8.

    Sounds like Bucktown Walgreens received ~15 cases... They still had more than half that 15 mins ago.
