I was at Costco yest (1600 Expo Parkway,Sacramento, CA) yesterday and bought 4 Johnnie Walker Blue Label for $119.99 each.
There is no limit, you can buy as many as you want.
This deal ends 06/08 i.e., tomorrow.
Regular price(146.99) - Instant Rebate at Checkout($27) = $119.99 + Tax.
Regularly, I pay $150 Cash at a liquor store for this. This is a good deal if you like Blue Label.
I might go today again and stock some more.
Cheers!

So what would recommend for an excellent single malt?
What flavor profile are you looking for? Do you like smoky, peaty? Do you prefer sherry or bourbon? What is your budget? There's a lot of good options...but it's a little easier to recommend something if you know your preferences. That said, you could start with something on the lighter side and work up to more advanced malts as you go.
Sorry that it is a $40 more expensive. But since you're going over $100, might as well do the right thing. The difference between the two is like the difference in between the Majors and Triple A. And if you want go the All Stars way, the 25 years is about $650
Dalmore King Alexander is all I buy anymore, other high quality scotches just can't hold a flame to this bottle. Binny's in Chicago has it on sale occasionally for around $150, usually $199.
WOAH- regular Glenfiddich is what the Scots export to England cos they hate them so much
While lacking in the complexity of other malts it is quite drinkable...and I think a bit underrated. You can pick up a bottle for $25 and have a nice introduction to single malts. I'd recommend it for someone just getting into whisky. Great price and it's not going to knock a first timer out like a laphroaigh or an ardbeg probably would.

I purchased a bottle of Blue, in memory of a friend; it was his favorite.
At $130 for the bottle, I expected a lot; I was sorely disappointed.
Taste is very individual, but I'd suggest buying a shot in a bar before dropping a 'C' note on this Scotch.
My bottle (in its lovely box) is just gathering dust.

But some great starters (for me) were:
Glenfiddich 12 yr
Talisker 10 yr - my favorite
Balvenie 14 yr carribean/rum cask
Bear in mind you're not supposed to get drunk on these. Cheers though!

(I got the Kirkland 17 Scotch to try and I like it a lot too; I heard it's bottled by Mcallan?)

Laphroaig - $50 for those who love strong peaty scotch
Glenlivet 18 YO $90 - is also excellent
Dont touch the blended stuff.......
Great list...I would also add Lagavulin to this list too (hands down my fave!)

If someone could recommend a better quality scotch, that's also lighter on the pocketbook, I'm all ears.

It served its purpose, but I won't drink it.
