Advice on champagne

I saw that BigW card promo but I thought it said it was only valid at BigW, not the others. That's great!

It does say that but somewhere here (Markis10?) said it was not true, and I've since done a transaction at DM that proves it works!

It's just a WISH eGift card with BigW branding on it. I used it at Woolies/Caltex outlet last night as well as in Woolworths.

with the secret selection at $39 I'm not sure it's much of a tip. but I guess some people like the stuff.

I've been cut off from secret selection

I've been waiting a week for a DMs order as well (one of the Xmas packs) and it just says "shipped". Maybe they've got a few pre-Xmas delays.

Probably. Mine turned up today. A week since ordering is the longest for me with DM who are usually excellent.

I'm in a similar situation - I ordered on the 3rd December and was quoted 3-7 business days for delivery.

There are some issues with the website at the moment so I can't log in to my account or reset my password (nor can the call centre). So the only way I can track my order is to phone the call centre. I did this on Friday and spoke with the most unprofessional call centre operator I've ever come across (he sounded like a backpacker). He told me my order was with the driver in Chullora and that I should receive it on Monday - given that is 900km or so from my house I very much doubted it was with the driver.

I was going to be drinking it at some pre-Christmas gatherings so I'm not very happy.

Mine came today. Totally forgot that they sent me an SMS on the 11th saying it would be delivered in 2-5 business days. I like the hologram on the label, pretty cool.

Looks like the Big W Wish card is only for Entertainment book subscribers?
Or is there a workaround for that?

It is an Ent book offer. I'm not aware of a workaround.

Mine not wrapped this year as I had a backlog of 3 cases and didn't want to give away the fresh batch

Serious first world problems here!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to AFF champagne aficionados and heathens alike

Afraid my consumption will be restricted this year. Wrote-off the m'cycle last week and went on IV antibiotics today for a raging leg infection.

Hope that gets better quickly.

We're in Munich for Christmas and dropped into the best priced champagne merchant we could find to stock up and avoid hotel prices. Taittinger was on sale for 39 euro, brought such a smile to my face thinking of the 3 boxes of secret champagne waiting at home for sub 35 AUD Merry Christmas to everyone and I hope you all enjoy a few fine glasses of champes. We're having Louis Roederer today (24th), Ruinart tomorrow and a couple of bottles of Billecart Rose to be enjoyed on NYE (if they survive that long).

(For those interested in hotels, the loyalty welcome drink at the Sofitel Munich was a glass of Perrier NV - far more welcoming than a "house wine or beer"!)

Cruiserette is demanding we crack another one also at 10:30 - but I am resisting - she'll knock off about mid aft - I'll still be soldiering on at midnight! You guys know how it goes - 'old dog for a hard road!'
