I just got back a few hours ago from 2 weeks in Washington and Oregon.

Beer - average 9.99 US for a case of 24, and of the brands we like.

Here it's almost 40 bucks with deposit. More - if you hit off sales or a cold beer and wine store.

Smokes (we indulge in all the vices......:o ) 3.65 US or 5.15 CDN. Here it's about 8.00 CDN

Do the math! :)

Gas 1.90 per US Gallon. Got home today and it was .90 per litre for Reg. We averaged at least 25 percent savings in fuel alone. Easily a 200 dollars savings over our trip - if not more.

I could go on..........

America The Beautiful! :)

>>lower standards

Jeremy ... I agree. But I can't lower my standards!

My favorite beer is Blatz beer in 40 ounce bottles ... I already gotta fight the winos to get in line to buy it!

And when it's sold out ... I move uphill to Red Dog and Old Milwaukee Light (to keep my girlish figure).

Microbrews

The lower standard thing was kind of a joke. Mary and I love a good microbrew. The darker the better in my opinion. I also enjoy a nice hoppy India Pale Ale. Drinking like that does get expensive though, no matter where you are.

Anybody do their own brewing? My uncle does this and makes some great stuff. I have another friend who keeps his own bees and ferments their honey to make Meade wine. Good stuff!

We've done a little brewing. It's fun, although a little space intensive. I got a nice, large, stainless steel stock pot out of the deal!

Al, Would you feel differently if it were (crawfish and shrimp) jambalaya, not stew?
