The wine industry is a good example. I love it when they do those blind tests with $6 wine and $200 wine and more often then not, the wine snobs go with the $6 wine.
I belong to a wine club called Splash that ships me 15 bottles of wine a month for about $89 (includes shipping). That's $6 a bottle. But the wines are not normally what you would find at the store so they have that "exotic" flair to them. People who come visit me think I'm a really sophisticated connoisseur but I don't know jack about these wines. I just know that for $6 a bottle, it tastes pretty good and I don't mind pouring my guests a second or third glass - it's cheap enough!
“ships me 15 bottles of wine a month”
Good gosh, I hope you have some help drinking all that my friend. I see why you picked your screen name. lol
I go with the 3 dollar wine........................
Aldi grocery sells a house brand wine called Winking Owl for $2.99 a bottle. Saw a local restaurant chef buying a whole cartload of it and asked him if that was the house wine.
He winked and said, “might be”.
