Scoop up the bargains
The holidays may be long gone but many retailers are still feeling the hangover. The first quarter is often slow and many wine stores have sales in February to make room for new inventory arriving in the spring, which means…
wine sale!
Near me in New York…Astor Wine and Spirits is having a moving sale with different regions discounted by 25% every week. The last week of February the whole store (what’s left!) is on sale since they don’t want to carry wine across the street to the new location at 4th and Lafayette. Some aisles are looking distinctly picked over but it is also a great opportunity to get some values in the Burgundy aisle.
…Zachy’s, the smallish store in Scarsdale, NY that does a whopping $50 million a year in business is also having an internet sale. One week left!
In Chicago, Binny’s is not having an across-the-board sale but it is having selected sale pricing for “members”–including a huge range of great wines under $10.
Wine.com is having a “President’s Day Sale!”
…and many more stores around the country…You’ve got to move it, move it!

Caveat to the Astor Place Wine Deals…Kosher wine is NOT included in the 25% off, regardless of where it comes from. I tried to buy a kosher Bordeaux today and was informed the discount did not apply…

How odd! Maybe it will be discounted in the last week when everything is on sale.
