Introducing Light Mode! If you would like a Bar Towel social experience that isn't the traditional blue, you can now select Light Mode. Go to the User Control Panel and then Board Preferences, and select "Day Drinking" (Light Mode) from the My Board Style drop-down menu. You can always switch back to "Night Drinking" (Dark Mode). Enjoy!

If they will do it, should be two or three days.
I find the transfer time to Ottawa ranges from 2 to 6 weeks. That's assuming none of the following happen (all of which have happened):
- they don't misplace your case
- they don't freeze your case
- they don't bury your case in the middle of a Vintages release pallet that is not scheduled to be opened for a couple of weeks

That sounds fun. I've decided to just come into work late tomorrow and pick it up tomorrow morning, bright and early at 8am. I'd've been passing by there on the Gardiner at about 7 am anyway, so it's just a slight delay and a slight detour. Can't wait!
Don't count on a quick in-and-out at Queen's Quay. I had to stand at the loading dock for 40 minutes late morning Thursday before my case came out. Is this typical or just luck of the draw?

Luck of the draw I think. I've been to the dock twice. The first time I waited about 20 minutes. The second time I was immediately served as I was the only customer pickup there.
I suspect the LCBO has been getting out the invoices as they have been able to do so - I think it's one person doing it. If you got all the paperwork to me initially and the LCBO took your deposit then you're in for sure.

I filled out the garrison order survey, but haven't heard anything from the lcbo regarding a deposit. Perhaps i messed up submitting the order. Crap.
