I've just grabbed a pint glass with an online order from here

$2.95 is not a bad price

Ok .. just had a call from this mob who don't have the glass I ordered in stock so he's sending me out two 560ml Guiness ones along with my order. Which I thought was good service as opposed to just sending out my order minus a glass

I've worked in a few bottleshops in my time and I can tell you that most of them have a small collection of glassware that breweries give them for promos. If you're a good customer and a nice person most good bottle-o staff will be happy to give you a nice glass.

Often a customer will say to me "If I buy a hundred bucks worth of good beer will that qualify for a freebie glass?" or something like that and my response is always "Shit yeah it will."

And if you don't have a good relationship with your local independent bottle shop, sharpen up your game.
