No argument here.  It was a dozen orders of 10 wings at $10.49 each.  So, 120 wings.

My local Chinese place does 30 lemon pepper wings for $15 and those things are better than anyone else's.  Outback has a price break on 20 pieces, but you can't order that online.  Frankly, I'm not particularly impressed with Outbacks food or their pricing, but I'll have two dozen drunk people in my house tomorrow that will be choking on this and clearance ham from Aldi. (Man, did I neglect to upload a pic of my shopping cart full of hams....)

Anyway, this cost me an astounding 84 Coke points, which is eight twelve packs plus a couple caps.  I get the twelve packs for $3.50 each, and collect caps out of the recycling bin at work.  So I'm out all of ~$28 and I also got to drink those 80 sodas.

I never have understood why Chinese joints have the best chicken wings... or at least they do here.  I tend to avoid outback myself for the reasons you mentioned, but hey, free stuff is free stuff. 

You know, off topic, but you may want to cut out the sodas.  My doctor asked me to do it for my health and it was a pain in the butt cutting it out, but now I'm on pretty much water only and I've been amazed how much it has helped.  Less headaches, more energy, no more weight gain.  I can still drink pop on occasion when I get the urge, but honestly I rarely want one anymore.

I drink approximately a gallon of water a day, thanks.

Pictured, clearance "hey honey, there's six left, do you want me.... Some guy just took them all" ham from Aldi.

Nah, and ham and crackers aside I wasn't impressed by their OMG SO LOW prices either.



Always enjoy your posts, Ed.
