$11 gallons of wine sounds like a headache in a bottle

Its not some quirky DIY cognac (well, brandy) kit? Its just $11 wine?

It was a magical day when I saw gallon glass jars of pickles in the grocery store for around $9.

  1. Buy gallon jar
  2. Distribute the pickles to pickle lovers (mostly trans women)
  3. Use empty glass jar to ferment things in

That's way funnier and somehow based than it has any right to be

Yeah it rules. My friends love the finished product too.

[โ€“] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago

well hell yeah, ten dollar bottles and one dollar gallons of wine.

As someone who was once in the same situation. The one gallon jugs that you buy for $10 are designed to fit a rubber plug on the mouth and all the mouths are the same size. The $11 jugs that you buy which are filled with wine don't have a consistent mouth size, so you might need to buy different sized rubber plugs for each. It's not a huge problem, but it is a slight inconvenience.

Buy them, drink the wine, and give her the empty bottles as a birthday or xmas gift

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago

This should be the maximum price of wine tbh

I love the gallon jug wine. I lived on that stuff from 2019 to 2023.

It's from the Earth. It's natural.

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (3 children)

You can turn the extra wine into vinegar. it does this naturally if you leave it open for a few weeks. This depends on the alcohol content, and you can buy starter bacteria for the process to speed it up.

Or drink cheap wine

Or you could distill the wine into brandy!

[โ€“] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

I did this with a one gallon jar of pickles so I could turn it into a squirrel feeder. It was significantly cheaper than just buying an empty jar of the same size.
