Meh fancy wine notes: “Zinfandel based blend is a juicy, jam-laden bomb. Explosive flavors of red raspberries, ripe blackberries and red plums are oh-so carefully balanced by a touch of sweet oak and rounded tannins”
Mad Ape Den fancy wine notes: “This Bordeaux style blend offers ripe fruit with a luxurious texture. The Merlot base creates the foundation for its medium body that lends itself nicely to a multitude of food pairings. The Cabernet Sauvignon brings the richness of such dark fruits as blackberries and blueberries. Dive deeper into the unending layers of this wine and you’ll find the Petit Verdot offers you the velvet soft tannins you’re looking for. Beyond that, you’ll notice the Petite Sirah, though only a small percentage of this wine, is the powerhouse that gives this blend its gorgeous garnet color and long-lasting finish.”

@Pufferfishy the meh wine was a pretty decent buy for $10 a bottle. I didn’t get the mad ape den because the folks here identified it as some not so great grocery outlet wine, so I can’t vouch for it.
@mjonczak I don’t know what was going on 3 hours ago when you posted, but I haven’t been able to connect to Woot, I’m getting server errors. Wine woot, and regular woot, too. Both from my desktop, and my phone (tried both via browser, and the app).
("@" removed on purpose, since I am just stating things for general reference, and not just to user mjonczak)
Yeah. Poor Woot. Busted. Dang.
The gist of that announcement just stated that wine dot woot will breathe its final breath on 12/31/2017. No word yet on whether the forums will remain (but I’m betting against it). WineDavid (whose specific ID there, or here, I do not remember, it’s EARLY, and I’m still drinking coffee) is setting up an alternative of sorts.
@Snapster made a post about this in some thread or other, here on Meh, when it was first announce.
I have even made a temporary account to buy wine (I do NOT like having to link to my Amazon account, but have made the concession for a single month, because Peter Wellington forced me to do so).
Woot (far as I can tell) has been down for a few hours. Still looks down, even now.
I shall designate the cost of a bottle of wine as W.
The cost of the fancy 2-pack packaging as P.
The cost of shipping the 2-pack as S.
The cost of shipping the case as C.
Then we have
2(W) + P + S = 39
12(W) + C = 105
We have two equations, and four equations, which means we can not solve it exactly. But we can still make some interesting observations. And yes, there is no profit margin explicitly in the equations.
I will guess that P = 4.
I will guess that the cost of shipping the two pack is 14.
That clearly does not work, as we get
W = 10.50 from the first equation, which only works if the cost of shipping the case is 0.
I’ll ballpark the cost of each bottle of wine as $5 and see where that gets me.
2(5) + 4 + S = 39
S=25 means the cost of shipping the 2-pack, which seems steep.
12(5) + C = 105
C= 55 seems like too much to ship a case of wine.
But now we are getting closer to numbers that make sense. I’ll try each bottle being $7.
2(7) + 4 + S = 39
Shipping is then 21.
12(7) + C = 105
Then shipping the case comes out to $21. That doesn’t make sense.
If I were to try $6 for the price of a bottle, the shipping cost is $23, which is high to me. Maybe I’ll increase packaging cost to $6, then:
2(6) + 6 + S = 39
So shipping ends up being $21
12(6) + C = 105
So the cost of shipping the case is $33
Sounds like it is ballpark reasonable.
So, perhaps:
$6 per bottle for the wine.
An extra $6 for the packaging for the two pack.
@ShotgunX ??? I feel fine…and hopefully after drinking the bottle of Meh wine I purchased, I will feel like 200 fidget spinners and 10 pounds of candy corn is a good purchase.
I come to Meh for a three dollar bottle of wine that’s turned to vinegar. If I want an $8 bottle of wine that’s masquerading as a $34 bottle of wine selling as a two for the price of one deal, I can go to Big Lots.
@sammydog01 Right? Every time you read these descriptions it sounds like a delicious party in your mouth - and it always ends up tasting like crappy wine.

Booze it up!
Meh-rathon is over… is it safe to come out?
Are you wine in meh?
If only my first wine had been delivered so I could decide if this was worth ordering again.
@bleedmichigan same here…
@brianne011 @bleedmichigan got mine yesterday but haven’t opened a bottle yet, will try it tonight
@raymondhthomas anything?
Oh Jesus fucking Christ.
@ShotgunX I always wondered what his middle name was…
Have any humans actually been able to “rat” these offerings so we might know how terrible they actually are?
…as I recall the Mad Ape Den blend was quite “meh”…
@Pufferfishy The Meh wine was actually better than I expected. Since I don’t particularly care for wine, I guess that’s a compliment.
@Pufferfishy the meh wine was a pretty decent buy for $10 a bottle. I didn’t get the mad ape den because the folks here identified it as some not so great grocery outlet wine, so I can’t vouch for it.
Woot does the wine thing, shouldn’t Meh do something different, like, I don’t know, water maybe? Water seems more appropriate for Meh, IMO.
@Kerig3 but woot is getting out of the wine game.
@Kerig3 at least cheap strong beer
@Kerig3 wine.woot is dead in just a few more weeks… I actually hope Meh will find a way to fill that gap in at least some minor form…
@Kerig3 woot may do the wine thing but it’s because they used to be run by the meh staff. Clearly someone at this company really likes wine.
@Lazarpandar Yep, doesn’t surprise me that Meh is run by winos! j/k
I didn’t know that wine.woot is ending. I only follow them from afar since they rarily sell anything that interests me anywore.
Personally, I wish Meh would sell coffee blends. That would interest me more than wine.
@Kerig3 I would buy coffee too! They should do that RIGHT NOW! NOW NOW NOW!
@jml326 link to an announcement please
@datruandi I believe you may be the proverbial “last to know” (and here’s a link to the announcement):

@Shrdlu Annnd, they’re back. Your link to the announcement as well.
2 for $34 or 12 for $100?! Wtf?!
@coleslaw9 Economies of scale. Not rocket science.
@Pufferfishy its more than 2x moar tho
@username Could be shipping costs… but I’m no mehxpert
@Lazarpandar on second look looks like packaging, but still
@coleslaw9 Let us do some math! I like math

@bdb OR, you know, the 2-pack is just a rip-off.
I got the one with Irk on it maybe a year ago. Not good. Not even meh.
And on the label Irk doesn’t look like Irk.
Of course something I can’t order in Oklahoma.
I really liked the meh/irk one, mad ape den I wasn’t a fan of.
Since I missed the Irk one a long time ago, ill get a 2 pack, don’t need more than the 7 ape dens on the way.
/giphy floppy-grand-templar
@dzieciom I want to have my floppy do this. Must investigate.
@bdb http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/gadgets/a19616/modified-floppy-disk-and-drive-uses-sd-cards/
Interesting stuff.
@RiotDemon wow, thank you.
I want to buy this, but not for $17/bottle
@JazzyJosh then buy it for $8.33 a bottle!
If visibly intoxicated upon delivery, you will not be allowed to receive the wine
Like the FedEx guy is gonna check to see if you’re drunk, All he wants is for you to sign for it go he can get moving
@AiraCobra If visibly intoxicated after delivery, it’s totally cool, apparently.
how much alcomohol does Mad Ape have?
also make em both screw tops for environment sake and $9 a pop, and i will buy couple bottles per month
/giphy skunk water
@0Wise1
/giphy drain plonk
I’m allergic
Yeah if I “dab at it” after five or six I’ll green out and be face down.
/giphy meh wine
/giphy not kosher
My state says no.
@NMA Mine, too. I hope the recent reports of progress being made in overhauling Indiana’s antiquated alcohol laws are true.
What’s timeline for delivery? I have 5 white elephant gift exchanges in December, and this may be the way to do all my shopping in one go.
@creativecstasy Dec 11-15. I know this because the ad says so.
Really annoying to have this so soon after the last offering.
I’m going for it. I can’t resist the Meh labeled wine, even if it’s overpriced!
@bramby2 Please get better.
@ShotgunX ??? I feel fine…and hopefully after drinking the bottle of Meh wine I purchased, I will feel like 200 fidget spinners and 10 pounds of candy corn is a good purchase.
@bramby2 Oh, oops! Must have misclicked. The reply was intended for the post below yours.
Well, I hope they get better.
I think my bottled urine would taste better than this…Minus the pulp of course.
Stupid Kentucky is stupid.
I come to Meh for a three dollar bottle of wine that’s turned to vinegar. If I want an $8 bottle of wine that’s masquerading as a $34 bottle of wine selling as a two for the price of one deal, I can go to Big Lots.
Shipping may be delayed if temperature is below 35 degrees ok see you in April wine!
Well so much for this deal. Still in a “bad” state.
Enjoying Meh and the great Map Ape Den!
So since this is 2-for-Tuesday, does that mean you get (2) Two packs (four in total), and (2) cases of 12 (24 in total)?
Sorry Meh, this is too expensive. $37 for 2 bottles of so-so wine? Nope.
@RedHot but $100 for 12 bottle of so so wine? That’s a fantastic deal, and going to be used for christmas gifts.
“Juicy, jam-laden bomb” sounds so good and so unlike my experiences with red wines.
@sammydog01 Right? Every time you read these descriptions it sounds like a delicious party in your mouth - and it always ends up tasting like crappy wine.
This years meh wine is truly meh.
I am dissapoint.
Full disclosure since I’m a loyal meh buyer:
I am not a wine expert but this years just seems a little off. I really liked last years though.
@Dengue but these are a 2010 and a 2014
I’m in for a dozen…
Happy Holidays!

I cannot turn down a good deal on old grapes…

Now, if my mad ape had gotten here yet, and I’d seen if I like it yet, I might be convinced. Do this again once I’ve gotten to try it.
