(I was originally going to order two 12-packs, but since it's cheaper to do 4 six-packs...)
He's also going to order a bunch of other stuff he misses from the east coast, so the order's going to be gargantuan.
One thing--the shipping on such a huge order is so ridiculously cheap that I'm almost wondering if they're going to stop the order and make us pay more for shipping. (Parcel Post is cheap but not that cheap...) If that happens, I might be posting back to ask if your friend can at least bring me one six-pack for me to taste...
Nice! Let's hope it works, and if it doesn't, let me know and I'll go to Moxie's.

(Also, slightly OT, but I'm sorta on the subject anyway--I never did get in touch with Moxie's on Main, but we've found Cheerwine at hometownfavorites.com for awesome prices--AND they ship USPS Parcel Post, which means we can get practically a pallet of stuff shipped for $50 instead of the $150 UPS Ground wants! But thanks for the offer to look...)
...I'm not afraid to bring this part over here...

I need to go to Moxie's anyway, since they have this one lemonade-soda concotion that I LOVE (I can't remember the name of it, but when I see it, I'll remember it).
And no, I haven't tried the Dublin Dr. Pepper. I'll have to remember to search that one out.
