maybe also include the volume of the bottles/cans?

A good start would be the following thread:

Excellent idea, there has already been several threads on cheap beer, it would be great to pull them all together.

if they still havent made the obvious sticky for dvds & cds there is slim chance of this happening. The moderator in the beer & wine forum would probably make one though.

Well once that new EU directive is brought in on thursday 24th that says you only have to pay excise duty on Alcohol and Cigerettes in the country of purchase it would be handy to have a sticky with websites that sell cheap alcohol and tobacco because it is going to save the Irish a fortune.

Think about it no longer do you have to wait for somebody to be going to spain for you to get 200 Benson for €20 you can just buy it online:D

Does that mean we will be able to import vodka on the cheap, are there any big web based companies that would send it out in plastic bottles?

You can already get it, and it comes in glass bottles. 1/2 the price it is here or less. Just search google.

CountryWise... "you are a man after my own heart", definitely sounds like a plan!

Tesco had a good price on it last week I believe (but missed it) & Supervalue had a good deal on most beers the weekend b4... this sticky will be handy to keep members posted & a good idea all year round! :rolleyes:
