Holiday Bourbon Exchange

Holiday Bourbon Exchange!
Everyone is welcome!
Hey bourbon-drinking friends (which is most of you), let's create some positivity and fill our cabinets which have been depleted leading up to the holidays.
Anyone interested in a holiday bourbon bottle exchange?!?! I know it is early but I think we could all use some bourbon and fun!! Who doesn't need a distraction from 2020. It doesn't matter where you live, you are welcome to join. You only have to buy *ONE* bottle of bourbon valued at $45 or more and send it to ONE secret bourbon lover. Afterwards, you will receive anywhere from 6 to 36 bourbon bottles in return!! It all depends how many bourbon drinkers join.
Let me know if you are interested and I will send you the information! Please don't ask to participate if you're not going to follow through with sending one bourbon bottle....we'll have lots of sad bourbon drinkers if that's the case!
TIS THE SEASON! Comment below if you're in & I'll send you the details via fb messenger - if they are confusing at all, please let me know! I think we can all use a little fun during this crazy time.
It’s literally just *ONE* bottle. You can order online and have it delivered directly to save on time/effort (which is what I did). I can't wait to see what comes our way!

Been going around my group of friends the past few weeks. Anyone involved in this ponzi scheme? PM me for details.

I've seen the same thing but with books. Same exact wording. How do you receive 6-36 bottles if everyone is sending to one other person?

I've seen it a bunch, not interested in a pyramid scheme if I am not at the top.

How do you get 6-36 bottles in return for 1 bottle?

Can I skip the bourbon part and just send $45 to someone to receive $270-$1620 in return?

Guess my friends are a buncha drunks
From what I can tell, you send the person one step above you's name and address to the people you get to join. They send that person a bottle, then send your name and address to those who they get involved, and so on and so on.
Basically-

Yea the only way it would make sense is if it was like raffle style, but that’s not what it says, says you will receive at least 6. This is too dumb

Yep. Here's an article on how the book version works.

If you notice, shite hasn't been quite right since the OT brought Honkus home.
I'm starting to think he's something like a Mummy Curse. Maybe we need to put him back where we found him.

It’s not a “scam”, it works in theory as long as everyone holds up their end of the bargain (they won’t)
But it would also have to go on in perpetuity, there will always be a group of people at the end who send a bottle out and get nothing back
In this version there’s the added layer of it being illegal to ship liquor through the mail and across state lines

If that Nigerian Prince held up his end, it wouldn’t be a scam either.

Is Madoff a bourbon drinker?

Sounds fun but alcohol mail delivery is expressly illegal in my stupid state.
