Default Cheap 5gal. glass carboys

I just bought a new 5g glass carboy for $14.99. The place had at least another 3 dozen of 'em, and they weren't even listed as a sale price item. Compared to the LHBS price of $23.50 this is a steal. 5 gal. size might not be ideal for primary ferm. for beer, but it's great for Apfelwein, and good for secondary.

Anyways, it was at Old Time Pottery here in Wilmington, NC. http://www.oldtimepottery.com/.
In case you need it, here's the SKU# 123215.

Since I'd like to do some wines, in addition to my beer, this seems like a good deal.

Matt
