I'm about to head over to Spec's near downtown Houston. Any can't miss stuff they have that's hard-to-find and/or seasonal? I'm in for Xmas and saw plenty of FBD'ers posting from there of late.

TIA and Merry Christmas!

I can tell you that it made me appreciate the selection I don't get in Lake Charles. And the guys at my local store have the Want, they just can't compete. In Stock up $200-$400 dollars everytime I'm there.

I behaved myself - just a bottle of Bulleit Rye ($21.99 on sale) and a few sixers of Karbach varieties.

My first time at the flagship store. Quite impressed. Tons of staff offering help in the aisles and at registers. Longest wait was for a parking spot and the place was a madhouse but no wait to check out. Lots of free samples (wine and tequila).
