  1. totally off topic, but i have just discovered that there is a market for empty liquor bottles. this boggles my mind. my wife was going to throw something out that she had emptied that apparently sells for $20-$25. the booze itself was like $35 when we bought it. it is some sort of limited edition bottle.

     

    As the owner of a distillery, I am always watching for antique whisky bottles.

     

    this isn't an antique! This was bought at the liquor store last year! i have two bottles of absolute brooklyn limited edition (they still have vodka in them though), apparently, when empty, those sell for good money. people turn stuff into lamps and stuff i guess. i have no idea. my wife just polished off some really good scotch i bought her..small batch, $100 a bottle (Aberlour a’bunadh), and apparently the empties sell for like $10. it is a pretty bottle, sure.

     

    I know, shipping this will be a PITA, but I'll survive

     

    Check out the prices for empty Crystal Head Vodka bottles. I used to work at a casino that carried this stuff and I would always check out the trash cans filled with empty liquor bottles to see if any were thrown out, but never found any.

     

     

    I just sold 4 emtpy 750ml and 1 empty 50ml Crystal Head bottles on ebay for $100. Was expecting maybe $40, I think I even had the BIN for like 90 beforehand. People use them for lots of craft stuff on pinterest.
