Costco is currently clearing out their stock of 40 year old single malt scotch whisky at $199.97. It was for $399.99. It seems the price is valid at all stores (at least in Illinois). Also, it's not on sale in all states, as one of the members pointed out, it's not on sale in Delaware. I would strongly suggest to call ahead and ask for Item # 746526 for inventory and also the price. Originally was selling for $699.99.
Also, please do not compare this with blue label or any other blended scotch whisky, this is single malt, which tends to be little expensive and smoother (at least for me). I have always loved Costco brand Kirkland's single malt offerings and I am pretty sure won't be disappointed with this. Also, the price might say $399.99, but ring up as $199.97 as price change might have happened recently.

But you're right about being "past your bedtime". Thank you. It's past mine too. I'm picking up fights about whisky on the internet and I'm not even drunk. Gotta take my medicine and go to sleep.
I found very funny..
Coming back to the topic.. so its a 40y old.. how can we know for sure? With so many scams out there, its so easy for someone in the value chain to lie and add a few years and sell for more..
The only way Costco would have verified is by having one of their inhouse tasters.. taste it and certify.. That is not enough for me to shell out 4 times what I normally pay for a bottle. Lagavulin 16 at $55.. better value in my opinion.
The reason they are "clearing them out" ?.. no one buying at that ridiculous price thats why.
Has anyone tried this? opinions? I might still pick up a bottle at $199.

I saw someone mentioned earlier Wayne, NJ. If anyone checks the price there please report. I will be driving past it this afternoon, but it is a bit of a detour. Even though speyside is not my favorite it would be tough to pass up a sub-200 40 yr.
