If you can stand to be harangued about why a proper Stella Artois serving vessel is a chalice -- not a "glass" -- then see www.stellaartois.com/1-800-my-chalice for a free glasschalice.

I was wondering Whiskey Tango Foxtrot was up with the Texas carve-out. Sure, I get that some states don't allow free alcohol giveaways or reward points (such as hotel program points) for bar purchases -- but this is glasschalice-ware, not alcohol.

The problem can't really be that it's a free item with alcohol advertising, can it? *boggle*

I spoke to a person. It sounded like it might be a system where you left a recorded message, but instead, it transfers you to a representative.

I don't recall the day I've ordered it, but if this topic has been started on December 20th, then I can suggest I've ordered it either on 20th or on 21st.

Considering the fact, that it arrived to SF Bay Area from WI, I can say for sure that you will get it next week for sure. It's regular USPS shipment.

I called to hear the "We're OUT, sorry" message.

It's nice to know that "MY" inconvenience is "THEIR" inconvenience. ;)

Well, I did not need the "Chalice" anyway. I've got a bunch of "Glasses" hanging around that will most likely work just dandy for holding some brew before popping it down my gullet.

And since I rarely (if ever) drink alcohol, the "Chalice" would only be gathering dust.

Unless a "Chalice" can hold water with lemon? ..... I wonder.... :p

It's never too late. :-) They are now offering a free "custom-engraved" chalice on the Stella website. It requires a code from specially-marked packages of Stella.

As we're both in the Metro DC area, it may help you to know that I've seen a two-pack of what appear to be the same glasses at Total Wines. IIRC, they were around $16 for a pair.

Courtesy dealnews.com: Stella Artois offers a Stella Artois Personalized Chalice for free when you enter a code. (To get a code, either purchase a qualifying product or request one by mail by sending your name, address, and age to Stella Artois Custom Engraved Chalice Code Request, P.O. Box 750198, El Paso, TX 88575-0198.) That's an $11 value and among the best freebies we've seen from Stella Artois. (We saw a standard chalice for free last month, since expired.) This offer is valid only for U.S. residents aged 21 and over. (Residents of CA and TX are excluded.) Limit one per person. Deal ends April 30 or when supplies run out.

Just FYI all, I had one shipped to Texas.

I used a TX address and Zip but choose OK for state. Sure enough USPS figured it out and I received a glass... I mean chalice.

Unfortunately, the deal ended Monday, so it probably is not a help to anyone, unless they do this promotion again.
