Default Super Cheap Beer

OK - first off it's Bud, but hey they're practically paying you to drink it.
I just bought a 12 of Bud Select (because they didn't have a 12 of the Ale) for $7.99 then you buy some steaks or seafood (minimum $15 purchase) send in the receipts and UPC and they'll send you back $15 !!!!

So worst case you got some for pizza dough, or marinade, or boiling brats.

Quite right, nothing compares to that sickening feeling as the Bud flows over your taste buds.

I cleaned a toilet with Bud Ice once. That was a special day.

great idea, I will have SWMBO go and stock up for the summer, that way all of my homebrew is reserved for people that are in the know, leaving the Bud for the others and I will get a handsome refund ............

They would, literally, have to pay me to drink it. And, I'm not cheap.

Meh. Better than coors.

Kinda.

But thanks for the tip. I'll keep an eye out for it next time I'm at the store. Free beer is free beer... even if it ends up in the gut of someone else.

Check the coupon. For many of those coupons on the beer displays you don't actually have to buy the beer. If that's the case, its generally state by state as to whether or not you actually have to purchase the beer or just the seafood/meat/ice/water or whatever else the promotion is.

The SWMBO does this all the time.
