The other day I wanted to buy a nice bottle of wine for a nice Valentine's Evening dinner with my wife. "Well," I said to myself, "We are doing pretty well financially these days, all things considered.... So let's splurge a little!" And what better way to splurge than to buy a bottle of Dom Pérignon?
So, I got to my local wine shop (or I should say the nearest wine shop that would carry Dom Pérignon), and there it was! $160 a bottle.
But, hey, it wouldn't be a splurge if it wasn't expensive, right?
I couldn't do it. I really tried, but my hand instead grabbed a more price friendly Perrier-Jouët.
Damn my thrifty genes!
