Where to Bulk Buy Alcohol for an Event?

Hi,

I’ll be having an event in September and I’m trying to find the best place to buy alcohol for this occasion.
I’m looking at getting approx;
5x jack daniels
5x johnny walker
5x vodka
3x Malibu
3x midori

I’ve already purchased the wine through a friend who helped me, as they know someone who has their own wine company… just trying to now save costs on the spirits…

Anyone have any suggestions?

    Costco?

    • will be visiting their for the first time soon, will check prices. Thanks!

  • Befriend 10 passengers on a plane and do a duty free group buy?

  • My mate sent a similar / bigger list to Dan Murphys and First Choice and told them he'd buy from whoever was cheaper…. Dan murphys said they don't discount / quote, first choice offered a slight reduction on ticket prices and ended up cheaper.

      However you could go cash rewards for Dan murphys and combine wish egift cards. 2% on spirits compounding with 5% on cards.

      Also check ebay sales for the ebay store if timing is right

      • Ill look into this. See if their is any savings.

          You're in luck, cash back increase on spirits makes it 5% cashback + 5% egift card discount (amd don't forget rewards points if you have them)

        • @MrFrugalSmith:
          The link shows the deal is expired!

        • @Puska: yes that will happen when a 'two days only' deal is posted and commented on the day before yesterday! :) missed it by ~10 hours

    Discounted Wish cards via entertainment book?

  • Dan Murphys will let you return unopened bottles of that's of interest

    • My siblings have done this in the past. They just dont really have sales…

      • But they match other sales…..right?

        • Not when its ebay sales or additional costs from codes.. only whats show on the website.

    Your list isn’t that large for bulk pricing.

    We always seem to get offers from Woolworths/bws and flybuys ie. spend $30/$40 get 2000($10) points.
    Their sale prices are close/same to dans and we don’t mind buying one at a time so we end up with each bottle $10 cheaper than dans price.

    Malibu is currently on sale for $28 bws/Woolworths same as dans price.
    Jack Daniels $46 verse dans $45
    I don’t think alcohol is excluded from the current Woolworths ebay coupons if you have already bought one (3 day delivery) you could use one for these specific 2.
    Or there’s a $15 off Woolworths coupon $150 spend and pay with 5% egift card

    All depends on what you deem a good price /possible returns/ how you need the receipt
