That's a great deal. I would definitely stock up.

No Costco in my area, but even if there was, they wouldn't be able to sell alcohol. :(

That's a great deal! I have 2 Costcos within 10 miles of me and neither sell liquor! :fl

Doesn't 18 alone almost cost that by itself?

Re: Glenlivet At Costco
 
That has to be a mis-price, I would believe $149.77

Actually, I found it to be a bit more. Mid $50s

Wow! I just found out last night that because of MA state laws Costco has to give the public access to their liquor stores. So even though I'm not a member I can still take advantage of the great prices in their liquor store. I might have to go see if they have this deal at my local Costco.

Let me know if you do, Mike -- I may be down for this deal!

Not surprised... :r :r

Re: Glenlivet At Costco
 
That's ridiculously cheap. I don't like the 12 year at all, but I'd still buy that because I'd still be getting the 15 and 18 at what amounts to half off. Time to go to Costco...

Box split? :r

I'm not sure when or if I'll be able to make it out there. I'm told the nearest Costco owned liquor store is in Waltham. Not too far from me, but I don't exactly find myself there everyday.

No. I'm told because of MA state law Costco is forced to open their liquor store to everyone.

That sucks. I heard that is true with their pharmacy as well. I pay to shop there, hate seeing people walk in for free :bx

As far as I can tell, Costco only advertises food & wine online - no liquor

$49.77 each or $49.77 for all 3 bottles? That is a steal.

True but I can drink them in the car on the way back!!

Wow, Peter, that's an amazing deal. Thank you for pointing it out!

I'm just now sliding down from the top of the Scotch slope so I'd love to add a few different bottles to my surprisingly growing collection! So far, every time I sit down with a glass of scotch, I do a sampling of each bottle I have and grab the one I'm digging at the time. My palate is VERY immature and I have a lot of growing to do to appreciate the nuances in this libation but I am enjoying the road of discovery just as I have with cigars.

Besides being a great deal, what an opportunity for a vertical tasting.

Should try these a couple of times as a blind tasting to see which you like best without knowing which is which.

If you do, you should post your notes.:tu

I'm going to Costco today in Calif. I'm hoping that we have it as well. Thats a steal.

Heatmiser 12-12-2008 10:12 AM

Re: Glenlivet At Costco
 
This is a great deal! The 18 year typically goes for more than $50 alone and is one of the better single malts in that price range IMO. Anyone on the fence should run and grab this ASAP. Thanks for the heads up Peter!!! :al

Yes, this is an isane deal. Get'em while supplies last!!

I just verified with My COSTCO in Michigan, this offer is not available anywhere in the Midwest...:bs

Re: Glenlivet At Costco
 
Now this is depressing when you see deals like this, and you live in a state (like Oregon) that you can only buy hard liquor through a state-controlled store.

Someone willing to work out a deal for this?

mastershogun 12-12-2008 05:53 PM

Re: Glenlivet At Costco
 
went and found nothing:fl
good deal nonetheless for those who were able to find it :tu

Boooooooooo, anyone want to ship:D

The 49.77 is a markdown price. Anytime you see .77 instead of .99 is a deleted item and either we (Costco) or the vendor is taking the hit on the product. It's cheaper to lose money on the sale then to send the remainder back. Our store just marked down almost all of the Christmas items.

The neat thing is, if you bought it at regular price and they marked it down you can go and get the difference refunded.

Re: Glenlivet At Costco
 
unbelievable, Peter. UNBELIEVABLE. I paid more than that for the 18yr Glenlivet that I have in my cabinet. dang!!

BUY MORE!!!!!!!

Oh that is sweet. I'll have to check out our local costco tomorrow.

Re: Glenlivet At Costco
 
didn't have any at either of the Costcos I stopped at today, and occasionally they will clear out something, oh well.

MTB996 12-12-2008 08:52 PM

Re: Glenlivet At Costco
 
Heck of a deal there. It's a shame shipping would be pricey, as I'm sure there would be a big GB interest in this.

I am going to have to check out Costco tomorrow to see if they have the deal up here.

Thanks for the heads up Peter!

No COSTCO in England. 18 y/o Glenlivit is one of my favorites. I'll be moving back next year. If I was there I would have taken three. until my wife saw them and put two back.
