I just saw two rock glasses and a jack Daniels 750 ml deal for 19.75. The jack Daniel 750 ml just by itself cost more than that.

Because the supplier sold it to them for $10.

Sure but someone down the line is taking a hit in some way.

I'd feel better if you said this was a bad joke.

How old are you? Was this your first time in a liquor store? Go check it out again in December and you'll see a hundred different promo boxes.

They are paying you a quarter in free glassware to advertise by drinking from their branded glasses.

Not if you buy another bottle because the glass in your cabinet reminded you.

I didn't even consider that they were promo boxes. It wasn't obvious. And yes. I've been in many liquor stores for years. I've never ever seen these boxes until I started going to a different one locally.

Sadly, I've fallen prey to this type of marketing before.

Pretty sure there are laws that those promo boxes can't cost more than the bottle by itself.
