Increase your budget to 30-35 bucks. You should be able to buy Ketel One, Stoli or Grey Goose. Tito's which is smoother, will be a couple of bucks less.
Whatever you do...don't go for the bargain basement $10-$15 bottles. Guaranteed wicked hangover for you and/or guests the next morning. Plus, they will be wondering who bought this cheap ****.

Costco house brand Kirkland Signature vodka is made by the folks at Grey Goose and half the price of Grey Goose.
Else, I like Ketel One or Tito's. But I'm not much of a vodka drinker. My Russian friends tend to drink Stoli.

Then I can just pour the Kirkland into an empty GG bottle for looks.

I guess i'm not sure what = premium but for this non-drinker there is noticeable difference in something like kettle one vs smirnoff in a mixed drink.

I'm in VA and all liquor is sold in state owned ABC stores (no not the ABC stores that litter HNL LOL)
I don't have a problem going to the $30-35 range but if I can get something reasonable for $25 thats what I'll get
I'll check out TMs and CSU's MONOPOLOVA for sure;
Did anyone figure out for sure if the Kirkland was made by Grey Goose?
I think I'll look at Ketel One as well
at least this thread has given me a great starting point
thanks I knew I could count on the Omni drinkers to get me started ^

I need to buy a bottle (750ml) of vodka
What do you recommend under $25
This seems to be the one type of alcohol where the packaging really influences the price more than any of the other types of liquor. I know it happens but Vodka is really obnoxious about it.
So to rephrase, whats the best value for a 750 say $25 or less?

Skol!!! LMAO
Most of my bar patons like the Goose but I can't afford it. I actually like Smirnoff for my income level.
