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!

I got in a little bit of an argument over the phone with the clerk about how cruel it is to post product on their inventory that is actually not available to consumers. He said it goes up because everything they receive goes into their inventory, it's not considered a special order and they can't flag the product as a hold for someone without leaving a trace online. I told him it should be fair game if it's on the site - he disagreed.
Could I get an employee to weigh in on this? I can't remember who it is who works there.
And...To the one that placed the order in Sudbury, if you didn't want the whole case, but had to for minimum purchase ordering, I'd take several bottles.
If that person could bring in a case, why can't you? Did you ask if you could do this as well? It would be difficult for them to say no after you know that they've just done it for someone else
somebody once posted the email of someone in charge of stock at the LCBO, does anyone have or remember the email address. i would love to know if more of these will be hitting Ontario.
