TIP for those who find Blackstone’s Merlot to be drinkable:
Safeway has a deal NOW (maybe not next week) where Blackstone is Buy one then get the 2nd for $0.10, plus the store I visited let me combine that with the 10% off when you buy six bottles. Basically you pay the retail price of $13 each for three, get the other three for $0.10 each, then you get another 10% off the whole lot.
The price is then about $6/bottle which is quite a steal.
But you have to pick a stupid-looking cashier because I think officially they are not supposed to let you double up those specials. Yet, last night I was able to get the above deal at Bay Area Safeways.
