That Trader Joes two buck chuck was very good.
We were visiting relatives in Mission Viejo and went in one. At the back of the store there was a major commotion going on so we went to see. The employees were bringing cases out of the back stock room as fast as they could and the customers were waiting like hawks to grab them.
We bought 6 assorted bottles laughing all the way home. We were very surprised at how could it was. Should have bought more, but we probably would have lost an arm or something in the fracas.

I'm a complete wine novice. What does the bin number signify on Penfold's wine?  I have a bottle of Penfolds Cab/Shiraz blend, bin 389. It was recommended to me by a local wine shop that specializes in Australian wines when I was trying to find something close to the Metala wine I had on Navigator.

Had to look it up at work the next day to make sure I wasn't crazy. And I am not. But however you drink it - ENJOY!
CUBEAGE
That is priceless!!!!!!
Oh my god..

I agree, Heineken is big here in Hawaii. I'm not quite sure why ... but it is. I personally don't care for Heineken that much myself ... but to each their own. :)
