In 4 1/2 years of this I've somehow accumulated one thing I never wanted.
So Many Vouchers for $100 off of wine.
does anyone else find themselves with an abundance of vouchers from all your pipe purchases?

I always received these from P&C after placing an order. I tried giving them away, but no takers, so now I just run them through my shredder.

I used one once. TN allows it to be shipped (some states do not). The catch was someone 21 years old had to be home to sign for it. I knew I had a few weeks window I was going to be home so I figured I would give it a try. Got the chance to try some things I had been interested in but could not find locally. Not worth the hassle of scheduling to be home just for that though.

We did it for a few years. Did get some reall good wine, at prices that where better than at the store. But they still weren’t cheap.
Regarding the someone to sigh over 21. It could be sent to a UPS store and you could pick it up there.
Or we could also have it dropped off at the Walgreen’s down the block and get it there.
Still had to be 21 to pick it up.

I've never seen wine vouchers come with any of my orders, though I don't really order from P&C. Do any other online retailers offer these?

I've only gotten them with P&C and they only ever make it to my trash can.

Happens all the time with amazon purchases. But it's a con over here. You're joining a club and get ship over a really expensive wine of the month every month to your house.
Tesco do 25% off when you buy 6 bottles or more. That's good enough for me.

Those things are usually from Naked Wines. I tried it once a couple years ago, and the wines are horrible. Tastes like it's fortified with anti freeze, no matter what varietal it is. It's the only way they can sell the vile stuff. My step daughter Gave us a case for Christmas, and it's still horrible. That surprised me, because she's pretty knowledgeable about wine. I'm saving it for when a friend of mine comes for dinner, great guy, but he can't tell the difference between wine and battery acid.

They go in the trash with the rest of the packing materials.

Hard to beat the Bevmo ads and total wines when they do their specials.
I visited California's wine country....Napa, Sonoma, Humboldt county's etcc...
I enjoyed the time there but shook off the "club" offers available to me as they gave the sales pitch....the price point was far past the point of diminishing returns for my palate....total ripoff in my eyes.

Like others above, trash can action. Three buck Chuck from Trader Joe's is good to go for me.
