Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

[Steady]

My membership of the old site seems to have been deleted so I guess my chances of being invited to the new site are slim.

Dislike......

Got some spare time on your hands tomorrow night do you fella?

Yeah, I am free until 7pm

How does one score an invite?

It was offered through the TWE cellar door website that has been discussed in this thread recently. Cost $20 and includes tasting of Grange 2011 and several other high end reds, in amongst 80 wines up for tasting.

Not sure if tickets are still available.

New Secret Selection at DM's appears to be the 2012 Brand's Laira Coonawarra August Tide Dry Red Blend. $15 reduced from $30 besides the 94 point Halliday score I've seen some mixed opinons.

Indeed it is. Received an email about this around 4 hrs ago. Delivery only though.

How did you manage that?

I think I have access to TWE - who knows.

I am seeing a bunch of things at varying prices. Some are okay, some are just retail?

Dan's are cheaper on a lot of items....

Yes they are, but there are still the occasional deal/bargain that makes it worthwhile, like the excellent Baileys Durif 2013 @ $18 in 6-packs, free freight (RRP $27), less 10% in a recent offer.

They just informed me of a once-only offer (until March 31) for me to invite family/friends to join, others may have received the same offer.

If anyone is happy to invite ME as their friend (or family, whatever), can you please let me know?

I'm flat out with my friends and subscribers...

Another subscriber received the same email, must be a few around.

Hope so! Anyone?

I wonder if they have differing price levels. I logged in (thanks to RB), and at first I could see John Riddoch available at $150, $120 and $110 (or maybe $100). RWT was also available at $135, $125 etc.
Come back half an hour later, and flip back to the same page, and the multiple offers for the same wine are gone - just the higher prices are available. I wonder if there was some backend process that put me into the right "category" that happened to run whilst I was away from my machine.

 

[blackcat20]

There are single bottles and six pack prices

I had similar - when I first logged on St Peters was $50 then I looked back an hour later and it was $55

What are the John Riddoch prices you see for singles and six packs?

I've not seen that, maybe a clue for new members to jump in if you see a low price.

I did just take a call from Wine Market, after a bunch of lesser stuff, we finally got around to John Riddoch 2012 @ $110 in 6-packs, he seemed willing to go slightly lower to get a sale too, but I couldn't think of anyone willing to split a 6-pack so declined.

Just on my way home from the TWE wine tasting ... Some nice wines! Standout was St Henri 2012 - $75 a bottle in a six pack. Bought some Chalambar at $15 and Grey label Shiraz at $20.

Good prices, but St Henri was $61 delivered with a discount code from Wine Market last October.
