I remember paying 580 a case in December. That's some price hike. How much are you guys paying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(well during the liquor ban the black market price was higher, but it would be ha ha). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much are you guys paying? Here in Iloilo I'd pay 42php for SM Light normally but i don't bulk buy. During alcohol ban I'm paying 60php so a very hefty jump. Profiteering on one hand and a risk premium on the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would never condone taking part in any black market activity (and would certainly never admit doing so...) but I heard some prices here... just hearsay, mind you. A p90 bottle of Tanduay or Emerador was going for p250 (sold by a barangay official, so the rumor goes). A dump truck driver got arrested nearby for trying to smuggle in cases of rum. Some cops got arrested going into the next province with a truck full of rum. The ban has been lifted again, so prices should go back to normal. Until it gets banned again next week ha ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That must have been in 1991 though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
