2012 - Deals on Drinks and other stuff

[KUZN EDY]

Similar thread helped me out a few years ago so i thought i would bring one back for this year. If you see a good deal on beer, camping stuff, food, chairs or anything that would be helpfull for stagecoach, post it here.

Stater Bros has 36 pack of bud/bud light for $20.99 and you get a 24 pack of 16oz water for $.01. So far thats the best deal on beer ive seen (.58c per beer) and free water to boot! good through 4/10

Big five has 10x10 eazy ups for $75. Not a smoking hot deal but probably the cheapest around.

Good website to use before heading out... http://gasbuddy.com/ (with a 60gal fuel tank and 7mpg, every nickle counts!)

If anyone sees deals on pineapples the week before, please advise.

Thanks, good luck!

Great post man. i will also keep my eyes open for great deals and post back here

i would check out costco....usually the best prices on alcohol. and you dont need to be a member to buy alcohol there! its against the law i guess to charge membership to buy booze!

i wanna say like 36 packs of bud, bud light, coors, etc...are like $19.99

[socalcountrygrl]

Bring on the Budlight!!

Great idea! I get most of my fruit SUPER cheap from the OC Marketplace (Farmer's Market section). Not sure if that's very helpful though! I'll let ya know if I see any at normal stores!

Except i can NEVER get out of costco for under $400! That place is a money pit for shoppers with Attention Deficit like myself. Go in for beer and... Oh look 2500 red cups, wow 2 liter bottle of jagermeister, 60 red bulls only $99, I probably need 100 batteries and 50 sponges, sure could use 20lbs of cheese, and Yes that sausage did taste good miss 90yr old lady in a hair net I think I will thow that in my basket too.... Damn I hate that place!

hahahaha, well true. maybe put on some blinders? lol.

the nice thing for me is that I dont have a membership....so, i cant buy anything else but the alcohol...and I dont need a membership...living on my own, i just dont have use for the 20lbs of cheese lol.

btw, ive heard that the kirkland vodka...is made by grey goose...justtt saying.

[JNPatton]

I've heard that about the liquor too... Their tequila is supposedly Cuervo 1800

[KUZN EDY]

Yep, those distilleries produce and bottle for Kirkland but its not excactly the same product. They distill and filter it less times so its cheaper to make but still taste pretty good to me for half the price. (that will be another $100 in booze for your costco cart.. along with mixers, limes, juice, etc... they gotcha again!)

[jlrapp8]

Pretty much costco brand liquor is pretty much the same as the best of that brand of liquor. so vodka-grey goose, tequila - cuervo 1800. so kirkland brand is much better deal and pretty much same taste. now sams club is different there crap is nasty

What TYPE makes all the difference. The material used is what makes an EZ-Up quality or easily breakable. Yo uvery well could have gotte a great deal still! Some of those things aren't rated to hold up in moderately strong winds (like at SC...or Lake Isabella)

[keebzie]

I'm definitely making a costco run before stage now! Had no idea about the vodka and tequila!

lake isabella HA we broke 2 in like a couple hours! makes me wonder if they are even worth the cash although i know shade is like gold at SC

[angiemarie123]

Maybe I will be making the lemon drops with the Kirkland vodka this year instead of the cheap albertsons brand. Less hangovers!!!

Yeah, do it!

[Raquellita]

Yup, and one of them was mine. I think if we tied them down they might have survived the wind.
I will tie down the one I'm bringing to SC too. ;)

They have ones rated for higher winds, but Lake Isabella was just RIDICULOUS. I've never been in winds that strong! The drunkies never shoulda put it up, lol.

[Chevgirl357]

I do think we'll need another EZ-Up or two for our entire group. I'll look into it and talk to Nick and see if we can afford it :)

i'll talk to Kathy about it as well. i read that the "dome" ez up is better for winds?? anyone know if it makes a big difference?

[jlrapp8]
