TIPS
• You can return un-opened bottles with your receipt
• Best Prices-Ad Prices & 2 Week Liquor Sale in June
• Look for bigger rebates on multiple bottles
NUMBER OF DRINKS IN A BOTTLE
• 1.75 Liter Bottle = 40 drinks
• Liter Bottle = 22 drinks
• 750ml Bottle = 17 drinks
FORMULA-figuring how many bottles you need
• Number of hours of open bar times the number
of people drinking equals number of drinks needed
Beautiful scenic view of golf course and river from banquet room
• Divide total number of drinks by the number
of drinks per bottle
Perfect location for:
Example-3 hours x 300 guests = 900 drinks
900/40 (#of drinks in 1.75 liter) = 23 - 1.75
bottles
900/22 (#of drinks in a liter) = 41- liter bottle
• Groom’s Dinners • Bridal Showers
• Anniversaries • Receptions
Example-4 hours x 400 guests = 1600 drinks
1600/40 (#of drinks in 1.75 liter) = 40 - 1.75
bottles
600/22 (#of drinks in a liter) = 73- liter bottle
