It would imply that I need to buy a case though :-( When is Oddbins (at least the one in Beckenham) improving their selection on wines? I am used to a better choice but have been disappointed the last few visits over the last 3 months. Cheers, Volker Hello Rod,

When is Oddbins (at least the one in Beckenham) improving their selection on wines? I am used to a better choice but have been disappointed the last few visits over the last 3 months.

If you buy a mixed case of twelve bottles it will still cost you £16.36, whereas at Oddbins the price drops by 20% to £14.39. So it's not as clear cut as you suggest. As you might guess, I work for Oddbins. Our prices, when you buy by the case, are pretty much in line with industry averages.
