    Nice...did you get it at msrp or secondary price? I can get the EH Taylor easily enough...but at $119, I"m passing it by.

    Just yesterday I visited what I refer to as a secondary market fine bourbon museum collection store.  Well stocked with the Sazerac lineup and others but clearly waiting for the Derby crowd to pay the prices. 
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    Dear Lord, did you buy this food in Iceland?    That’s extremely priced.

    Just checked what that would cost here and it’s the same.  The mc crispy is $6, the fries are $4 and the drink is $1.  Add in $4 for tax and you get to $15.  

    Not Iceland, just the price of tea in China.

    Wife bought a new saddle.  This is what happens when I get tied up at work and can't make it up till late in the evening.



    I think this belongs over on the exotics thread, as does the RV your wife rented.

    Wowza.  $15 for a single meal at Mickey D’s sure did get pricey then.  Glad I don’t eat there.   

    Last time I was in Reykjavik that price would have made sense, can’t imagine what it is now then.

    No purse, but apparently she also bought matching headstall.

    Also, I have learned to not check receipts.  Being ignorant is a blessing.

    Two things about McDs.

    1.  The more chicken nuggets you order, the cheaper.  I order 40 and it is around $12.

    2. New Mexico had a basket of fries for $3.  It is like a double large.

    Haha, even with 13% tax it’s only USD 7.21, drive through can’t screw you if it’s prepaid online.  Hopefully I’ve convinced the resident Dislikowart to agree it’s a great deal and Like it this time.

    edit: removed what the Dislikowart deserves since it’s a family forum

    @JohninMSRP - MSRP. I haven’t been able to talk myself into paying the crazy secondary market prices. Too many other great flavors out there for that IMO. 

    Saz $36.99
    EHT $69.99
    McKenna $59.99

    Haha!  This is why Doordash and other courier apps won't be around long term unless they can figure out the fee structure.

    My wife ordered 3 soft serve yogurts once, she had a $50 gift card to door dash.  Delivered it was $90.  Yogurts themselves were $18.  We have tried it a few times, but always been stupid expensive and had issues with the food/delivery/etc.

    We only like to get delivery if the restaurant manages that in-house. Otherwise, both the extraneous fees and the big take irks me too greatly on all of those platforms.

    Don't complain, your tax rate is only 7%, try 13%  =)
