However, I bought a case like this last year from Costco on sale for under $20.
Two of the beers were, IMHO, undrinkable...the Summer Bliss and Mango IPA. And I'm pretty open minded about beer.
Much better deal is this weekend at Pavillions/Vons....Stone (various) 12 packs for $11.99 with a $10 paypal rebate when you buy two. Under $18 all in with 9.5% CA tax and CRV for 24 cans is about as good as it gets these days.
OP, do you have any item numbers that you can give users to try to check their local stores with? That would be a good help. Or images of the items showing the in store price maybe?

There's no link to a deal here at all, all this does is dump you on the main Costco home page.
In case you're wondering why it's getting downvoted...
Very likely there is no online link to the items for the OP to add, as it's in store only as the OP said. So users will have to go to their local store to check. The OP is being nice and giving users this heads up so that they can check their local stores
(Also we don't expire a recent thread just because it's YMMV and/or in store only, even if the user has no links available, since those are ones you have to go to the store to check anyway.)

I didn't downvote, and only clicked the expire thing because there didn't seem to be any other good option for "hey can you take a look at this and review it?" (and it worked! you did! ) But I'm guessing the downvoters had the same confusion I did, so it wasn't just me. I do see the B&M now but it didn't occur to me immediately that was shorthand for "in store only". Maybe just say "In-store only" at the top of the post to make it more clear for us deal-amateurs who aren't immediately going to recognize the shorthand way of saying it?

My wife loved the Mango IPA. New Belgium has great beer in general. Your deal isn't anywhere near 9.97 plus tax for 24 cans!

Understood For future, if you need to do more than report something that is actually expired and want to talk to a mod, you can 'mod alert' the thread. In Classic view, there's a button that says Mod Alert at the bottom of the OP. In Redesign view (which you're likely on) instead it's a little flag icon that says Report at the bottom of the post. That will let you ask or tell the mods stuff such as spam, reposts, questions or issues with a thread or user etc.
I'll add the in-store to the OP's post but at least now you know what B&M is (stands for Brick and Mortar, aka a physical store)

Thanks, did not know that's what that was for, now I do, lesson learned
Speaking of lessons, is there a class or page or something, Slickdealing 101: Everything you ever wanted to know about how to use the Slickdeals site without being an a--
or something along those lines? I remember looking for something like that when i first arrived but couldn't find anything, mostly folks would just suggest searching the forums if i have a specific question. Of course, it's entirely possible there is something exactly like that right in a very obvious place, and I just didn't find it because I have the attention span of a toddler....

All is good, we were all new here at one point and had to learn too.
It has a couple pretty basic videos to help introduce users to the site but also if you click the FAQ button it has more info on various features of the site. Though unfortunately how and when to mod alert something is apparently missing from that FAQ lol. (I'll suggest it gets added lol)
Whenever you're not sure of something, you can always mod alert the OP's post if it pertains to that OP's deal, or a post in the thread if it's about some comment in the thread etc. If it's not thread or post related, you can still mod alert a post but say it's not about that post but something else that you wanted to ask about, if you need a fast answer.
Or if it's not urgent, then at the bottom of every forum on here there is a list of the moderators that handle that forum (moderators names are in green) and you can click on one of the moderator names there and then message them but they may not see your PM right away especially if they're not on shift. You can also email the site via the Contact Form link at the bottom of the page too, if it's a more general question or you're having technical issues etc.
