    Qantas wine $50 points club voucher - No promo code Box!

    Hey all, I can see I have a $50 QF wine club voucher. I’ve been attempting to use it at part payment of a $282 case. I’ve tried entering the code into the ‘promo code’ box but to no avail, I’ve got right to the end of the process but I can’t find a box to enter the voucher code into. Any ideas?

    Qantas wine enhanced cartons

    Just received a delivery from Qantas Wines, and noticed the carton it was packed in was a lot poorer than previous shipments I've received. Previously the cartons have been pretty sturdy and I haven't had any problems. This one was really flimsy and totally unsuited for a dozen bottles...

    New markets to buy and sell whisky

    New markets are popping up in Australia to purchase whisky at true market value rather than what stores dictate to you for rare and hard to find spirits, whisky in particular.

    Shipping wine/alcohol - how to do this more cheaply

    I don't do this very often, but today I had to send 1 bottle of wine (a bottle of Wendouree for those that frequent this thread: Wendouree allocations and general discussion) from NSW to Tasmania.

    Virgin Wines $89 for 14 bottles + 2 Stemless Glasses + 2000 bonus points

    I received this mailer last week from Virgin Wines (somewhat out of the blue given I do very little business aside from the FF account I have with them): As a single graduate student, the prospect of picking up 14 bottles of wine seemed a bit excessive. However, I justified it by saying I'll...
