Don't worry about money, I'll just package them up and ship them to you...my treat. Just PM me your address.

Also, I ask that you powder coat one in my honor and keep it around.
How's about, you buy that 6pack and I'll buy you 2 more 6packs, you drink them all and send me 2 dozen empties. If you're good with that, PM me with your PayPal details and I'll send you some cash
What do you reckon shipping would be?

Oh, can you make sure to wash them out real well please

Thanks for the help Matt

Sounds fine to me. I have no idea what shipping would cost, so I'll look into that, and get back to you.

I'll need you to PM me your shipping address.

Is it my imagination or do CF members have a heart of gold, down deep, of course?

Hey buddy, yeah, been a horrible weekend with all of the ice storms that came through.

It looks like shipping will be about $25 after I buy the right size box, and some cardboard tubes to protect the bottles. If you don't want the tubes, and feel it'll be fine with standard packing then $20 to ship.

My Paypal address is Tamaca1@aol.com

I'm just glad I could help, and you know I would have done all this for you for no charge right?

Thanks mate! May as well go for the cardboard tubes, keep them looking nice $45 total sound good to you?

Thanks for the offer, but you've done more than anyone else already! I don't mind the cost Matt, just make sure to enjoy a cold one for me on Christmas Day while I'm at work

How 'bout you send me $20, I'll buy a case of Bud Light in aluminmum bottles, empty them and sent you the bottles?

You don't even have to pay me for the shipping

I forgot all about this Matt. Are you still "gathering" the components? Do you want me to send the money? If not mate, I'll annoy Poppa Bud and take him up on his offer

Nah don't bother anyone else, I'm almost done drinking all these bottles. I can't get them when I'm out with my friends because the bottles you get at bars all have dings in them so I bought a couple cases and am drinking them here at home.

Soon as I'm done I'm gonna wrap them, box them, and ship them.

Wayne,
check this site out -

http://www.ebottles.com/showbottles.asp?familyid=1418

Cheers,
Brett.

p.s. if they wont ship to you directly have them ship them here and i will forward them on to you if you like.

how are you for your Aussie fix - i just picked up 2 cases of Bundy ginger beer, 6 cherry ripes, 4 bottles of 333's mustard pickles and a new jar of 'puts a rose in every cheek'! Life is good again.

How the hell did you find that site Brett? They'd be alright too.

Hmmm... My Aussie fix is not too bad. Dry country here so no booze anyway (although rumours abound about moonshine ) but luckily, Bundy with ANYTHING is Satan's urine so I don't miss it anyway Now, VB is another story...
Just finished off my last packet of Smith's Salt and Vinegar crinkle cut chips All out of Chicken In A Biscuit too
Haven't had any Cherry Ripe's for ages but a friend's due back in a week or so who's bringing some goodies. I never thought about the 333 pickles though, I LOVE that stuff! Mind you, you can't get any ham here to have with it and even the freshest bread is like week old stuff at home
Luckily, I buy my Vegemite by the Kg jar (several of them at a time) and that normally lasts me from vacation to vacation

M8 ask Matt if he can throw in a can of salt and vinegar pringles with those cans - they are pretty much the same taste as the Aussie S & V chips. Bit of a bugger the old S N's not going for the old oink oink,eh.

How about Aussie tv shows - do you have any way of getting them? If
not, I can show you how to get them, but not over the forum - you'll have to pm me for that one.......nudge nudge wink wink.

cheers,
Brett.

Nah, can get the Pringles here ok, I just like the really crunchy crinkle cut chips. Can go to Bahrain which is (depending on the time of day) an hour's drive away and get pork there and "smuggle" it back. Mate of mine did that and was caught when they inspected his car at customs. Had all the pork confiscated, got a huge fine and a nice Arabic stamp in his passport that says "PORK SMUGGLER". It's also in their computer system too and now whenever he comes through customs, they go over his car with a fine tooth comb!

We get loads of US tv shows here and everyone's favourite - Sky News
But no Oz tv shows - hmm... curious now, pm sent
