I can't pass up the opportunity for a comment. My grandmother (who passed at age 104) drank one of those 7 oz Miller "nips" every night with dinner. We would buy her a case whenever she ran low. A case of nips however was always more expensive than if we had bought her the same Miller beer in 12 oz bottles. We were never able to convince her to drink just a glass and then to throw the rest of the beer away. So to keep her happy, we continued to buy her the case of nips until she passed. But maybe I can convince quiltsheddy that sometimes those pony size bottles cost more.
