@@MajorXero :) I cant buy anymore as well. I'm waiting for a black friday sale before I go out to find some stuff. The local liquor store has all the expensive bourbons because no one can afford them anyway. He told me I could buy the Staggs and Wellers at the top with a discount (but needs more motiviation) which have been their all year round so no hurry while inflation takes my dollars.
