Booze Run

[Asterix]

If anyone is doing a booze run this weekend, please let me know as I'd like to jump in.

Do people tend to go to Barcuda or Al Hamra Cellar?

[Asterix]

By choice, I'm a Cellar guy.

I get 10% off list, plus I prefer the place for an extra 10 mins up the road.

I know a chap who can deliver. Charges a flat fee of AED 200.

I can PM you the details.

I'm good thanks mate - I just wanted to grab a few bottles of wine and a case of beer. I can't justify a AED 200 surcharge just for that.

I'm hiring a car for stuff later next week, I'll do one then.

Silly that along with Sharjah, Dubai is the only other emirate that you can't buy booze in without a licence.

I just popped down to MMI in Motor City.

235 dirhams for a case of Bitburger. You can buy the same case of beers for 120 dirhams at High Spirits in AD.

We really do get ripped off on booze in Dubai.
