Anyways, I was searching the bottom shelves and I found this:

IMG_6223A entire BOX of Pinot Evil.  For $20.  Plus, there was this little handy graphic on the side that explained that 1 box= 4 bottles.  I was sold.  Any you know what?  The wine tasted just as good, saved me eight dollars, and stayed fresh until the last drop*.  It was like having a second faucet in the kitchen, only this one spurted wine.  I had plenty of wine for me and whatever guests came through, all for a bargain price.   What could be better?  Boxed wine:  Not just your Grandma’s Franzia.

*Disclaimer: by the end of the box I was so sick of this Pinot Evil that I will not be buying that brand for a long, long time.  Thank goodness there are other boxes out there to try!
