4/9/12: Retail Deals: Total Wine

Okay, so this may only appeal to some, but it's a good cause so here you go:

For every case of featured wine you buy at Total Wine between April 1st and April 30th, they will donate $4.00 to Autism Speaks.

Now, a case (12 bottles) sounds like it could be really expensive, right?

How does 12 bottles for $86.28 sound of some delicious Petals Moscato? (other varieties to choose from) Pretty good right?

Not only are you supporting Autism Speaks when feeding your (Moscato) wine obsession, you are also saving 10% on your wine for buying in bulk! And you are good on wine for a very long time...

I would suggest buying in cases, not only if you love wine, but if you are organizing a huge party, like a wedding, graduation party, birthday, reunion....

Alcohol can add up, but if you have a "signature drink" at your event, then you won't need to spend as much.
