I live in Montreal, Canada, so I tried to refrain from suggesting any wines in particular, as the grocery store selections vary greatly from province to province, country to country. For instance I have never seen the infamous 2 buck chuck that I keep hearing about. These are simply guidelines to help people pick whatever wine is on the grocery store shelves near them. But please, keep the suggestions coming, they are very helpful and hilarious. Cheers!

This is the wine they sell at Trader Joe's. It's great when I was in college and had no money and wanted to get wasted. If I'm gonna go for something cheap I usually pick yellowtail.

Grocery store wines, "yummy on a budget", otherwise I usually buy from Four Seasons, which is not a bad price either (12 bottles each season for just $119.00, this is less than $10 per bottle)!!! Shop around it is out there...CLR My husband and I found a wine called 2 buck chuck in the grocery store and was not too bad, some better than others!!!

Corks suck. If you're REALLY unemployed try Thunderbird and strawberry Faygo. This combo tastes better than any in the article... Sacreligiously yours....(sp?)
