I was not planning to spend any money on wine this month (outside my groupon to one wine store).
But a co-worker just got another position and he bought me a gift of my favorite bottle of Italian white. Only one store in NYC carries it, so I rarely get it. Plus, it is $38 plus tax, so $41-$42 per 0.75 liter bottle after tax.
So here is where the temptation comes in -- he talked to the owner and it turns out that the small winemaker who produced it has died and they were unable to get in touch with the widow. So this may be the last 3 bottles in NYc. My first instinct is to go there and buy them.
It is unplanned, but since I may never be able to get it again...
Got an unexpected gift and now temptation to go outside the budget.
