Stupid question, but...

do you feel ripped off when someone gives you a cheap bottle of wine as a gift (hostess or whatever...)?

 

I know when I give a bottle of wine as a gift I'll pick up a bottle that's at least $15...I mean there are some nice wines for a lot cheaper, but I figure if I were to buy an actual gift instead of a bottle of wine I'd spend more than $15 so I try to pick a really nice wine.

 

I opened a bottle of red today, and it's an ok wine, so nosey me wanted to know what it cost...$7!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I think that's cheap.

 

Maybe I'm just thinking that way because I've drank half the botle though :P:

I know NOTHING about wine, but if I'm going to buy a bottle it will be at least 15 to 20 dollars.. just cause I don't wanna seem cheap.. heh

Ok that was hilarious! Hope by now you didnt finish the rest. That two buck chuck can be deadly! I love how folks think there is no way to determine what they paid for their lame gift. Now you know they are cheap-os!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
