Total Wine Pappy Offer

[Benny P]

I have a feeling I'm going to end up with a bottle of Blanton's haha. Or even worse, shut out of anything.

Hey, you're more optimistic than I am!

[JulianD]

anyone know how often TW does their 10x promotions?

[BenW]

Any word on when this drawing goes down? I’m interested to hear if anyone actually gets anything worthwhile.

[CraigE.]

FAQ site still says late February... I expect to strike out again... Maybe I'll get the opportunity to buy a bottle of Blantons in reward my loyalty, lol

Thank you. The information is helpful but Total Wine keep finding new ways to screw with this program: “we won’t tell you exactly when or what you’re buying until we decide... but we’re giving you a two week window during a pandemic to turn up to a highly trafficked store and purchase it. Enjoy!”

LOL... Pretty accurate summary of their program. Once I hit grand reserve last year, I've shifted my buying to other stores almost entirely because of the changes to this program... And have no plans of going back.

[BenW]

We’re in the back half of February now... I assume no-one has heard anything yet?

California people can login to your tw account to see if you won a bottle

I just checked my account and looks like I did end up with a Blanton's haha.

[Matt Latuchie]

I got shut out. Had about 40,000 points last year.

[Jeff P]

Got a Weller 12. Better than nothing

Hahaha, me too. Not the PVW I was expecting, but hey.

[Michaelkroe]

I got shut out. Had about 75,000 points last year.

[Curtis Chen]

Weird system. I have far fewer than 40,000-75,000 points. TW should do better.

[BenW]

Shut out as well. How do they not even have enough Blanton’s to offer everyone a bottle? This sucks. I can’t believe I’m still surprised by this.

[BLittle]

Got lucky with the Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye. Buddy got a Stagg

[JulianD]

Got a Blantons, could be a hell of a lot worse. Don't know if it's worth getting grand reserve for though...

[Jason Samansky]

I got a Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year. I think I had over 200K in points but I bought 2019 Boudreaux futures through them.

[noah y]

Got a 20 year. Pretty psyched. I had a lot more points last year than this year and was empty handed last go round. Nature of a lottery I guess...

Nice! The lotteries are state specific right? (So I’d be competing against everyone from California, right?)

[Lee Barnard]

Believe they are state specific. Got lucky with a Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye (in Delaware).

[Scott Jameson]

Got a W12 in TX. Happy to pay $35 for it as I haven't seen it available for some time.

[James Lyon]

Yeah, nothing here. I had enough points for Grand Reserve, but I don't think that it included my 2019 futures. I tried calling over the holidays, but could never get someone to answer. Next year. Hahaha.

[David B]

Got a Blanton's. Better than nothing but I don't really love it for $65.

[Scott G r u n e r]

shut out

[Bruce Rudman]

Also got a Blanton's. Good friend with 50,000 points got one too. Last year I got a RVW '12. The only thing that seemed fair was a friend who was shut out last year got a WLW this year. He's happy. The strange thing is we hear employees are "lucky" and getting better stuff than the customers.

That has to be anecdotal though... it's not like TW employees are literally picking raffle tickets at each store.

[Ken Strauss]

I got this email.

Priority Access update
Thank you for being a Grand Reserve Member and signing up for the 2020 Priority Access to Pappy Van Winkle and Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. We wanted to let you know about an update on the selection timeline.

Our team is working hard to get these Whiskeys as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, it’s taking longer than expected so we’ve had to revise our timeline for selection to late March.

Once we receive our supply, enrolled Grand Reserve members will be randomly selected to buy each Whiskey available.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Stay tuned to your email and Rewards account for updates and results. And thanks again for being a Grand Reserve member.

Blanton’s is singlehandedly the most overrated bourbon, even at $65. Great for taters. Only thing I from Blanton’s is the Gold.

I was going to pass on mine but somebody at work hasn't had it so buying it to share.

[D Zurcher]

I just picked up my bottle of Stagg-first time I have gotten a bottle through this process. Not sure how many points I had last year, but I did buy a lot of 2019 Bordeaux futures-does that count toward this?

It does

[john enea]

got a weller 12 finally this year. by the way I know a lot of employees who work there. not one has ever won a bottle in any year that they, the employees, have been eligible. to much to lose to fix it

Do the people you know what does TW do with the unclaimed bottles? When I picked mine up yesterday they had a clipboard with likely 30 pages of names/bottles on it. Maybe 60% were crossed off. I think the deadline for pickup is 3/8. I would assume employees would get a shot at them?

[john enea]

for bottles that were not claimed by the deadline, I believe they held for next years lottery. at least that is what they did the last 2 years. also heard that they might recycle them and re-raffle this year. but that info is worth what you paid for it
