Need to top up your COVID alcohol supplies for Lockdown 2.0?
Almost $1 per can, plus you can use cashback and/or the PBOTTLE code if you buy anything else to hit the $50. It's not a bad drop, and the cans make it convenient for trips to the… oh wait… backyard bbq, or hiding from kids in the closet. haha
Haha I thought it must have been a pre-mix. Apparently not. They're 2.6 standard drinks RIP.
Marketing gurus were trying/are still trying to create a convenience category. Working well.
Nothing classier than cracking open a tinny of Sauvignon Blanc on a night out.
My partner doesn’t drink so I find these cans and mini bottles great so I don’t have to open a whole 750ml bottle. I pour it into a glass to drink. There’s some decent wines being sold in cans these days. I would also imagine these are great for picnics etc.
More and more manufacturers are using cans, particularly with beer. Public perception has certainly shifted.
Who says "Who buys wine in a can…" …
(I'm old enough to remember people who were equally sniffy when cork-corks got replaced by plastic-corks, and when 'foil+cork (de n'importe quel type)' got replaced by twist-tops).
The thing that makes this a non-starter is that it works out to $4 a litre… when Aldi has perfectly buvable 12.5% box red @ $10 for 4l.
I yearn for a world free of wine-w~ankers (lol), but thus far COVID19 has failed to deliver.
Some people pine for the fjords: I pine for 2006, paying 60 centime/l for 13.5% alc/vol drinkable red, in a weekly run to refill a 20l plastic bidon at a vigneron on the road between Fontenay le Comte and La Châtaigneraie. The pump looked like a petrol bowser. Mrs Jessup would be horrified.
(Don't listen to me - I'm a wine philistine by choice. I drink solely to move the brain-needle).
in a weekly run to refill a 20l plastic bidon
Is this a cry for help? That's a scary amount of wine.
Was $384! Nah.
TIL wine comes in cans… Reminded me of Always Sunny: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGpKQVPhamI
Looks like a very good price. Dan Murphys sells them for $5.99 each or 24 for $130

One of the funniest show! Gotta pay the troll toll to get the boy's soul..
Beat me to it!
Thanks, bought 2 at $95.06. Bargain.
These are great for travel, no heavy glass bottles to worry about.
It should be $90.06 with the coupon code PBOTTLE
What!, it said code was applied… cheats.
Maths isn’t my strong point. Buuuuut…
If 48x 250ml = 12L that’s as much wine as around 17 standard 700ml bottles.
Spending $49 on even the cheapest crap you’d need to find bottles for $2.88 each to be more of a bargain than this. Gossips is around $4 these days and I think the cheapest at Aldi is more than $3
So I conclude it’s a good deal. I don’t drink sav blanc, but I ordered a case.
Yep, I saw under $3 for a bottle, no glass so good for travelling/ camping. Bought 2.
Too much wine today, just realised wine bottles are 750ml, not 700.
So you get as much wine as 16 normal bottles or $3.06 each.
and if your in NSW that should also get you $4.80 back for the cans. + $1.50 shopback.. Ordered a case.. :-)
where/how do you get $4.8 for the cans?
recycle and save
You are right, your maths aren't that great ;)
Standard wine bottles are 750 ml.
redo your calculations.
Just a word to the wise, Sav Blanc is a variety best drunk pretty young - so you're looking at up to 18-24mths as being it's 'best before' date. Likely perfectly fine after this but it'll possibly have lost part of its original characteristics. Being canned would possibly assist this a smidge as zero light or air can hit them but you never know how these have been stored. :-)
Wondering if wine changes taste in cans.
Everything else does, why wouldn't wine.
Thanks OP
They sell this in bottles for ~$10 so its not amazing, but its not terrible either.
Bargain! Wine in cans is great. Perfect for picnics or keeping in the car. Thanks Op, grabbed one.
keeping in the car
Open in case of emergency?
Saw this, looks like goon in cans
Can't inflate this though.
^this. Cans don't have a nice soft pillow for sleeping in the park or a toy for the kids!
Don't swing as well on the hill's hoist either.
OOS :(
Back in stock?
Thanks OP - just ordered. I just some of these at BWS clear out about $2 a can and are pretty good - at $1 great!
EDIT: cheaper thanks to this post if your a new customer - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/549280
It would feel weird drinking out of a can, but it's a good price!
Thanks, just as I start Dry July :(
If only we could get fizzy wine in a can, that'd be awesome.
You can, just not on this deal
https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/cub-bundle-sonder-wine-sparklin…
Plus a bottle of 12yr to wash it down. You're welcome
This is worthy of a deal in itself. Boozebud has the wine at $110 for a carton, Black Douglas is about $50
There is a rose one as well.
https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/cub-brookvale-union-ginger-beer…
This one is probably better
@Tiggrrrrr: No 2 separate deals. One is alcoholic gingerbeer + gingerbeer and rum RTD cartons and the other is a carton of sparking rose cans plus a bottle of scotch
Bought 10. Perfect for returning to the office, now I no longer need to pour my goon into a thermos every morning. Nobody would even guess because they can't come within 1.5m ;)
bought 2 thanks OP!
How uncooth drinking wine from a can…….
OP, isn't it just over $1/can? (…which I suppose could be described as…. 'almost $1/can'; I suppose.)
Based on the photo, i thought it was a deal for 48 tennis balls per can…
Coming up as $59 for me?
Update, good for drinking, cooking, and gish fashion in isolation…
