Made our bi annual trip to Sam's yesterday. Man, I wished they would of built one in Minot. Almost need to borrow money from you, Ahab when we only go there twice a year. They had baby back ribs for 2.88 a lb., whole chicken wings (hate the cut up ones you get here) for 2.48 a lb. beef brisket for 3.18 a lb., plus all the other stuff. Then hit the liquor dept. and its north of $700 to go there. As far as the Octoberfest, its 29.00 for 28 bottles and 2 of those cases are for my cousin, so I will need more.
