While browsing the aisle of wine at Marshall Field’s, I came across six bottles of Old Pulteney 12 year. All liquor was priced 10% off, so I ended up getting one bottle for about $20 after tax.

How funny–it won’t be long before I’ll be shopping for socks and picking up my favorite scotch all in one trip.

Seriously, though, I won’t count on finding any real finds there in the future. I think the total offering of single malts at the Hawthorne Mall Marshall Field’s was Old Pulteney, Glenlivet 12, and maybe a bottle of Macallan 12. The Old Pulteney was next to the Effen Vodka. It was an odd offering for Marshall Fields, but perhaps the price point was within what they think they could move in that small marketplace boutique.
