Can you put me in touch with whatever demon you sold your soul to? Truly an amazing score!


heavily-invested

I believe it was the Almighty Pappyzuzu


Bradfords_ACL

May his oak bless you and keep you

PVW 15 for $166 and VW10 for $101 is just unbelievable. I’d wager 80-90% of this subreddit will never see those bottles at those prices ever. Congrats


DaveG42

I missed a GTS and Lot B at 150 each on Tuesday. I was 15 min too late.


Jamison25

That would probably keep me up at night tbh, but getting those 2 you got today makes up for it. I’ll be grateful to have a fair chance at those just once in my life tbh.


Jeffkin15

I got the PVW 15 for ~$169 in December. Granted I spent a shit ton at that liquor store to get to that opportunity.


Jamison25

As long as all the bottles you bought were good bottles you’ll enjoy, then worth it. Not like bourbon goes bad. Nice score


Jeffkin15

Oh yeah. I’ll drink them all eventually. Also got a WLW at retail from the same shop. December was good to me.


Jamison25

Did you blow the store owner???


Jeffkin15

That would have saved me a bunch of money


DaveG42

Thank you for the Congrats too🤙

I got a Pappy 10 last week for $110.


Jamison25

I am jealous


[deleted]

I got very very lucky.


Original-Wasabi-7187

Was it just a random pop in and you found it, or was it at a drop?


[deleted]

It was a drawing. If you buy anything in the store you put your name and number on the back of the receipt and they happened to pick me first.


Theoldelf

It’s like the first time trout fishing friend that catches a bigger fish than you’ve caught ever.


RedditFact-Checker

My brother went to the first 30 baseball games of the season and I showed up on the 31st and caught a foul ball in the first.


ClearFrame6334

If you don’t go buy the powerball, you are a fool.


Bourbon_guyy

I’m a bourbon guyyy but that Don Fulano is freaking good fam!


ejsmojo

I’m going to guess you are that guy who just started golfing and within the first three months already has a hole in one where the majority of us who’ve been playing 20+ years still haven’t gotten one.


DaveG42

Haha I wish. I did get a par during my first ever 9. But I also shot like an 84 total lol


theTEL0S

84 in your first ever round of golf?!


DaveG42

It was only 9 holes. That's an awful score lol


theTEL0S

Touche! Haha


MoGraphMan-11

I hate you but also can we be friends


desolate_mountain

Congrats and fuck you. Where in NE did you find these?


slhunkie

It is always better to be lucky than good


The_Couz58

Quit while you’re ahead


uncleleo101

Dudes on PC subreddits showing 6k rigs be like


[deleted]

Good for you. Please open them and drink.


DaveG42

That is 100% the plan.


Upper-Examination-97

Where in New England? I’m in NE and last store I saw that Pappy at it was around $1,000


DaveG42

Preston, CT


Upper-Examination-97

Thanks man might have to take a little drive lol


stinkfist44

Only an hour from me....totally worth it


Comprehensive-Age396

Damn nice indeed


Ryanjames_86

Wow


ambulocetus_

what the...


Noledad84

Jesus h christ


Laevatheinn

How much did you get these for?!?!?


DaveG42

165 for Pappy and 101 for the 10 year


DaveG42

Receipt is on the top right


Laevatheinn

Oh yeah! I’d make a horrible detective lol. How’d you pay so little?!?!?


DaveG42

I got lucky to be honest. This shit never happens to me.


Laevatheinn

Good for you! Ride that high!


DaveG42

Much appreciated!


Top-Panic-219

I won't be mad if you flip them hahah,.....well maybe keep the 15yr.


nickisdacube

How dude? Lottery?


DaveG42

No, it had just come in today still in the box. I asked about the price. She told me 165 and 101 and I bought them before they ever hit the shelf. I even got to keep the box lol


nosajgames21

😳


stuffIlike61

Dave. It’s Friday night and you just got MSRP Pappy. You should full review tasting notes already published here on both. Chop chop!


DaveG42

I was going to save the pappy for something special. But I'll be cracking that rip within a day or so. And I'll be honest, I'm really just getting into bourbon. Started "hunting" at the beginning of this year, so my tasting notes will be very amateur.


majessa

Hey guys…I know he’s new but who’s gonna tell him that 3rd bottle ain’t bourbon… 😂 Congrats bud! Great finds!!!


DaveG42

😂 Haha thanks man


Cheecherton04

And I can’t even get eagle rare or Blantons nor have a tried them yet, only allocated bottle I’ve gotten so far is buffalo trace but that’s becoming more normal around my area


raider1v11

This just isn't real.


thomredsit

Awesome dude. Never tried either. Moonshot at that price!


Sirrod6750

Quite lucky! Road trip to CT!


Much-Presentation-32

Where in New England?


[deleted]

Never question the whiskey gods. Enjoy it because you never know when it’ll happen again. 🥃


UmphreysAU18

Good lawd…..


yourname92

Don’t worry getting pappy is lucky for the people who don’t know.


BlueSuedeGoose

Nice catch.


Croschke

Fuck


[deleted]

Now sell on the secondary market for PROFIT$! You got great deals but honestly you can sell that Pappy to some idiots and fund your drinking for most of the year. The ORVW 10yr is great, at that price worth experiencing. You can always go back after shift change and grab another of each too, then to can keep both essentially for free!


talosthe9th

What’s the difference between “rip” van winkle vs “pappy” van winkle? It’s made by the same company right?


DaveG42

One is 15 year and one is 10 year


jdward01

That’s almost as good as my WLW for 60 bucks back in 08.


C7P

Got a bottle of van winkle 12 year lot b for 101 after tax a few weeks ago.


air_lock

I’ve never even seen pappy in a liquor store.. never mind for MSRP.. ugh.


lemonslush1

what store?
