I got the email, too, but didn't like the price. It's ok to justify a trip to FL to get Jumbie a little cheaper rather than order it online, right? [smilie=cheeky-grin.gif]

I have never had this nectar. At that price after all of the hype I might be dissapointed.

Nah, I don't think so. :D The last time I saw it in a liquor store it was $25.99 so it's not that much more online.

Funny, got the same email but didn't want to post it until after I ordered, lol. :lol: Since a trip to FL is out of the question (airfare alone would make it a pretty hefty purchase), plus who wants the hassle of hauling it back in this day and age of travel/baggage restrictions, I went ahead and ordered some. They only had 43 bottles in stock when I ordered mine...sure hope they fill orders in the order in which they were received, and not by random. :-? Seems like it's not often in stock anywhere so I went ahead and splurged. Maybe I paid too much...oh well. I know folks who pay more than that for a bottle of wine..this *should* last longer.

then the price went up since I got it... :-?

*edit*
Wait...you're including shipping in that price, right? Definitely not worth it for one bottle, but shipping for 3 seems on par for what we were shipping wine for a few years ago.

Yeah that was the total price, I didn't word that correctly. And it looks to be just a couple of bucks for each additional bottle.

I can't quite do it for over fifty bucks during the winter when we're slow at work. Darn I'll call the stores to see.

It has to go Fed Ex/UPS etc. I'm curious as to how they will package it. When we shipped wine we had special styrofoam type inserts for our boxes to insure against breakage. They weren't cheap, nor were the boxes. So under 20 bucks to ship 3 bottles across the country seems fair to me, considering what I've paid to have other stuff shipped that didn't need special packaging or to be signed for. I'm pretty sure it cost fairly close to that over 5 years ago when I'd ship wine.

I wonder if I can order it. (I think it's illegal for me to order liquor online while living in Massachusetts).
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Not illegal for you to order it.....it's illegal for them to ship it.....however if you have a friend/relative that lives in NH, you can have it delivered there and pick it up from said friend/relative, but you run the risk of having to fight them for it! [smilie=cheeky-grin.gif]

Hmmmm, I have some friends in Manchester, maybe I can bribe them with a bottle or two if they give me the rest. 8) 8)

We've ordered and shipped wine at the Key West wine shop and had no problems. It's illegal to order/ship wine from outside the Commonwealth of VA.

We had to sign for it but it came right on time in a plain box. :lol: :lol:

Buy some Cherry Nyquil instead, it will taste basically the same, have the same effect and it's cheaper.
Seriously, I've tried it on more than one occasion and found it to be too sticky sweet for my taste.
But clearly I'm in the minority here :P

Now VANILLA rum on the other hand
