Last week it was shocktop and michelob pale alewith a rebate
This week the girl at the liquor store pointed me towards
Bass Pale Ale/Stella Artois/Hooegarden/ Becks rebate.
$2 on a 6 pack, or $4 on a 12 pack.
I picked up the Bass Pale Ale and a 6 pack of SN Torpedo.
Bass was 12.99 for 12 pk, -$4 mail in rebate.

Limit $8 per address, so i may go back and get another.

Offer good to residents of :
CT/DC/MA/MD/NH/NJ/NY/RI/VT.

Now, that's a good deal.

12.99 x 2= 25.98- 8.00= $17.98+2.40 bottle deposit Total= 20.38

A case of new bottles costs about $13.50. So....

20.38-13.50= 6.88

I am getting a case of Bass for about $6.88

I like my calculations!

I will have to see if that rebate works for Michigan. It doesn't look like it though.

Bass is not the best for bottling homebrew

No bottle deposit in NJ either.

Why so? I assumed all non-twist offs were the same.

It has to do with the thin glass used around the neck of the bottle. A quick search will verify

I am in St. Clair Shores. The $13.00 was the ballpark price in the Northern Brewer catalog. I have not checked Cap N Cork.

What is the going rate locally, do you know?
