Found an add on Craigslist for free wine bottles.

Ended up with 54 of them because the gentlemen wanted to clean out his garage. Also ended up with a free wine Rack

I'll be really impressed when you tell me the bottles were full.

Hahah... bummer that happened. Do you have a winery anywhere in the vicinity? They're not allowed to re-use the bottles after tastings (at least in Illinois) so they give 'em away for free. Luckily for me, the winery I get them from uses a lot of clear and blue glass which I like =)

Hey thanks for reminding me!
I actually know some folks that own/run a winery not far from me and they offered me some bottles a little while back.

Ended up working out of town right after that and forgot about it!
