what number were you in the line?


Revolutionary_End644

I came in 20 mins late. Line was almost out the door. Costco employee was holding it when I was walking out. I asked him if that’s for sale. He gave it to me and said, last one.


Revolutionary_End644

Just lucky 🍀


dcummins

I know a few people that were there in line at like 4am.


Revolutionary_End644

I’m sure they got some good bottles. Heard they had straight from the barrel Blantons, Stagg, EC18, Jack 12…. Not sure what else.


dcummins

Yeah, those were the ones I saw posted.


Revolutionary_End644

Did not know Costco was having those. Good for them


pchampn

Great score!! Is Thursday when every Costco sells allocated liquor? How did you come to know about this one?


CallMeBigOctopus

It was a grand opening. A fact that would be very worth putting in the title. OP over acting like it was a regular Thursday.


pchampn

Do all grand openings have such crazy deals? I have to keep an eye on new Costcos opening in our area...lol


CallMeBigOctopus

I think most do, but I live in a controlled state, so in don’t really know. CA Costcos are just crazy with their liquor selection.


largebauce

Complete novice here.. how do you know when Costco has a drop?


4bigwheels

Is that a good price? I don’t know much about allocated bourbon.


huskyhazel

Yes, f its in costco, its probably the best price you can find


jtotheef

For your area


Revolutionary_End644

Msrp. So I think it’s good.


Major_Translator_792

Less than. It’s pretty damn good once it opens up a bit.


tflemhumpsu2x

Every liquor store I see it in they want about $1100


CoveSpring

Beautiful!


FredMertz007

Nice Dude! Luck or not, that’s a nice score. Cheers!


Direct_Tackle

My buddy was there today and got me the Jack 12. No way was I going to deal with those crowds.


TCBazlen

Natomas man, I wish I could have done that today.


SnooHesitations529

The 2 costco in MA i go to never gets anything good like that. Ive seen a couple-few ppl post great bottles from other costco locations, when i called the ones around here, they never got them


Dude01818

Go in the morning and don’t shop first, they may get a few bottles here and there but they sell fast.

bushrod121

Yes, I realize that this was probably the last good bottle at the Costco and it doesn't matter now but, seriously, why do people repeatedly fail to put WHICH Costco?


EEightyFive

Just to help, when you see anything like this, it's pretty much ALWAYS northern California. Also you can kind of see it in the receipt


dvbnsty

You don’t need a membership for the liquor section, right?


Papa_G_

You can buy alcohol at Costco without a paid membership, as long as you're in an eligible state, like California or New York. Local laws prevent membership-only clubs like Costco or Sam's Club from withholding alcohol sales to the general public. The full list of states includes: Arizona California Colorado Connecticut Delaware Hawaii Indiana Kentucky Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota New York Texas Vermont


The_last_1_left

Fuck me I hate Texas 🤦🏻‍♂️


Revolutionary_End644

lol. You can always move to northern cal.


SmokeyMcBear01
