Almost free beer!

Bud Light drinkers in Tennessee and beyond are being offered a $15 rebate amid continued response to some criticism over the company's marketing strategy.

*****

A quick check on Walmart's website shows that an 18 pack of Bud Light runs $19.73, so the final price would be just under 5 bucks - and they still can't sell the shit.
Beer and bottled water are sold in the same aisle at my Walmart, so I'm in that aisle damned near every time I go to Walmart for groceries. Budweiser products in general are just sitting there while other beers are selling.

  1. It makes my old heart swell to hear people are not buying this queer beer. I feared people would forget in a week or so and be suckered by the low price. I wonder how much revenue they have lost in the last couple months. The majority has taken a stand, finally.
    On another note, I was reading the literature for a smith and wesson 380 the other day. I suddenly realzied the entire booklet was in English only. Nice.

    1. Never did care for buttwiper beer. On the otherhand, my Bodyguard .380 is in my pocket everyday, everywhere.

    2. I have the original instructions for my series 4 S&W Model 19 (pinned and recessed). It unfolds into one big sheet and I'm thinking about getting it framed.

  2. I used to drink some Platinum Bud Light prior to the mentally ill man being celebrated for pretending to be a girl for a year - not a good tasting beer but lower calories with a 6% ABV so it would give you that beer buzz after drinking an Old Rasputin Imperial Russian Stout.

    Haven't found a replacement yet but I laugh when I see all the Bud products fully stocked and virtually untouched at my local grocery stores!

    1st time I think a boycott from the right has actually had an impact!

    1. How about Dick's sporting goods? They went out of business in my hometown and many others. Target is having a hell of a time too

  3. Get woke, go broke.
    Seriously, power of voting with your wallet on display!
    Stop supporting companies that actively support causes you don't like. Simple, peaceful, legal way to express your opinion.
    Hate trannies? Don't go to target and buy budlight.
    Hate being labeled a racist bigot because you're white? Stop watching the nfl, disney, marvel, paramount, the democratic party, anything nike or calvin cline, coke, pepsi, home depot, lowes (shop at Ace!), Mondelez Intl, AnBev, ehhhhhhh... this list goes on for a while.

    1. Where I live Ace is the place. In all the times I have been in the Derby Ace only once did the ckeckout cleck fail to welcome me to the store. He was busy dealing with a Karen. And the employees will walk to the correct aisle to show you where what you need is.

  4. Free brew maybe but, without barley, it isn’t beer. Bud is made with rice.

  8. The Libs could strike back and buy Bud Light by the truck load just to show them redneck hillbillies they're evil tranphobes, but it ain't Dom Perignon Champagne or Starbucks Hazelnut Bianco Latte so let's protest something that has more "it's all about me" appeal.

  10. Because of the left wing media it appeared that the entire country had been won over to their side. The Bud and Target thing is showing everyone that that is not true.

  11. No one has mentioned this yet, so here goes.

    Who in their right mind thinks that someone that looks like Dylan Mulvaney, who is obviously a flat chested queer guy in a dress with long hair pasted behind it's head and that phony smile, thinks that is a good look and a proper representative for a company trying to sell beer to a predominantly working man customer base?

    Who thinks like that?

  12. I think the only salvation for A-B InBev is for them to bring back Bud Man malt liqor in the black cans. Market it to the the 13% with a 13% ABV ought to do it.

  13. A few weeks ago there was an article claiming Tar Gay was on the verge of bankruptcy. Should have saved it. Checked yesterday, that article cannot be found. Dang.

  14. I drank plenty of Bud and Michelob in the 70s and 80s, before 'light' beers hit the market. none since then. Coors is light enough... Switched to Miller High Life (not MGD!) after that.
    I won't drink any beer with lemon and salt.
    I won't drink Corona. Even if it's free.
    I like Bohemia and Beck's

  16. I for one will start buying it, it is cheaper than paper targets and looks great when you shoot that shit. Easy to pick up and properly dispose of the empties.

  17. Everyone has been getting more and more fed up with the constant barrage of corporate approval of the perversion. These people are in Minute Minority, yet ,somehow All of Society is impacted by this idiocy. It's patently ABSURD to pretend a man can Choose to Be a Woman and Lo and BEhold!! He Are One!!
    This whole ridiculous thing needs crushed and put away.

  19. Here is some commentary from English blogger Longrider about the fact that other firms seem to be joining in with a bizarre race to the bottom.

  20. I might buy some and paint the cans black or other color for my "friends" who spend the entire visit with a fresh can in their hands.
