8 months waiting for them to cut the price and dump their stock.

I was very surprised after waiting all year to see them drastically cut the price a day after our summer tourist season ended. From $69 to $39 for a 2019, 2020, and 2021 cask strength releases 375ml. It has had the asterisk on the full price tag for awhile now and I was hoping this day would come. About a full pallet left when I got mine.

Are you ok
- My bank account isnt.
  
  But how does your liver feel about this price cut?
How did you know they were going to drop the price?
- I was never certain, but if the items price tag has an asterisk in the upper right corner it means they are not bringing that product back. Pair the asterisk with a very large amount of product that wasn't getting much interest, and I figured one day it would happen. I also saw other costco member's posting the same product and the price slowly was reduced around the country.

  Wow, learned something new about Costco today. Thanks for sharing that!
So this is about a 2-3 month supply?
- It is nine 750ml bottles total volume, and with having around 40 other bottles in our bar before the MM additions we will probably have a bottle of this cask MM still next summer.
  
  Oh I see. Moderation. Admirable.
Why are so many open?
- The front 3 are the open ones and they are each a different year release and taste very different. We were doing a little blind tasting.
