Champagne 2015 price $400
[QUOTE=JohnRoss;2370784]As of 2015, champagne is $400. I really don't think it is worth it. I still remember when a 750 ml bottle of riesling was $100.[/QUOTE]I am a "sometime" LVB and end up springing for Champagne once or twice a year max. My purpose in doing so is not to get into someone's pants as the recipient is most always someone into whose pants I've already been on multiple occasions, but rather to say "thank you" or celebrate an occasion (birthday) in a manner that has meaning for them. As it is a really big deal for the KBG's to "Ta ta don" in front of their peers and Mama.
I haven't had any occasion in 2015 to be tempted to buy Champagne, however if / when the occasion does arise, I will ask the price up front and if it truly is $400, I will refuse it. If enough of us follow this, the price will remain at the already ridiculous level of $300.
Kaina.
Good advice to the inexperienced $400 now talk about inflation.
[QUOTE=Shipshape;2371319]Couldn't agree more Mr. Johnny. 2 girls 1 hour or 1 girl for 2 hours, however you want to cut it, the AMP wins. Want to socialize with her? Bring along your own champagne, sit there and hold hands for an hour, then bang her for the next hour. LOL Buying drinkees is a time buy, how much they drink or pour out pretty much does not matter. You're buying time with the KBG. Yes, a few guys like to live the fantasy or the "chase", I get it, to each his own, but $400 for champagne! That can get to be a pretty expensive voyage.
There is this level of expected behavior that KBs and the KBGs want you to learn and attain and it all has to do with your money going into their pockets. Some "buy" into the expected behavior and achieve a certain feeling of validation. Hey whatever works as long as you know what / why / how it works and accept it, I say, go for it.
Ss.[/QUOTE]I guess times have changed. Inflation finally hits the KB but like another brother I can remember when Piesporter White Wine was a $100/ bottle. Lancers and the rest but being an old goat has it's advantages since I don't buy bottles any more. I do have a bar birthday coming up soon and I already told her will buy her 20 Neko's if she can handle it (small Beers) but I am not buying a bottle guess works out the same but as far as time I am going to make out on the small bottles.
As brother SS said you buying her time, how much you spend for that time is the value you receive for your money, and finally the money you spend for that time if it's a dollar or 5 dollars or 16 dollars as long as you can afford it and the entertainment you receive equal the value you put into the monies spent. We (who actually go to the bars) all know this by now through the school of hard knocks.
The princesses now days can't even go to work when they are drawing a salary, or clean up the table when the guys leave when the house is running short of waiters. Pretty sad. To each his own as brother SS said but you have to remember it's not the one bottle that will get you it's the 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th bottle that will really soak you and put a strain on your finances, well maybe not for some young, rich, handsome, twerps! The most important factor is this is fantasy land for adults, I say again adults and as brother SS said as long as you accept it and play you reap the benefits and rewards for your actions, no cry when the KBG breaks your heart, we have all been there so join the club.
$400/ bottle man that's an average of $1200 for the birthday, well, maybe if she one good worker Mama usually buys her one. Tax time coming up guys, you ready to pay the tax man should be getting even slower as the deadline nears. Anyway be safe and monger on.
