A small treat
I did something I haven’t done in a few years… I bought wine. I am, and have been, on a pretty tight budget for a while that has not allowed room for purchasing wine. While I have been a viewer (or maybe that should be lurker) of Wine Library TV ever since the first mention on Diggnation, I have not been in a position to enjoy the juice that Gary Vaynerchuk has been talking about on the show.
Once upon a time, I was the wine buyer for the small chain of pharmacies. I used to enjoy buying nearly all the specialty merchandise then; wine, beer, cigars, candles, and anything else that would be fun and move in the stores. Since that time I haven’t been in a position to do much in the way of purchasing these things that I enjoyed so much.
On to the purchase… I was at the grocery store and noticed a small case stack of Coppola Classico. They were packaged two bottles for only ten bones. In the past I have bought this for about $9 a bottle so I figured I wasn’t living too large grabbing a couple of bottles for $5 a piece. I haven’t yet popped the cork but plan to do so soon. I remember it as a decent table wine. Hopefully my memory serves me correctly. Funny how something like an extra ten dollars could make such a difference to me.
* Can’t wait until I am debt free so I can free up some cash to try some good wines on a regular basis. * Darn you Cali Lewis and Dave Ramsey!!! ![]()
Haha, it’s worth it, though!
Hope that day comes soon for you!

I also wish I had more money laying about for wine. I just wish there was a good way to keep a bottle for a couple of days without going bad that wasn’t as much as the wine. One of my favorite brands is Bogle, they’ve been consistently good.
Wine Library TV is fun to watch so much high energy.
