I'm on the hunt for a lower serial number........

Absolut just released their latest limited edition collectors bottle and I was lucky enough to get hold of one.

I'm now on a hunt for a serial # lower then 100K so I would appreciate help in locating one.

On your next trip to the liqour store would you please keep an eye open and let me know if you can help?

It looks like this.

I'll check my 2 local stores Mon.
Just curious, if I find one are you just interested in the bottle (empty) for a collection?
Not sure if I could ship a full one.
Happy to check!

If you absolutely have to drink the vodka John I'll settle for an empty bottle but I of course prefer a sealed unopened bottle.

This Vodka is so good it comes with my personal guarantee.

Drink a bottle in less than an hour and if you're not drunk I'll refund your purchase price, (alcoholics not eligble ).

Your memory serves you wrong as that bottle wasn't even invented in 2010.
