sorta seems too good to be true...then again BB is over priced and so $40 in RZ credit is like having $25 on Amazon...but still not a bad deal!

A. It is good and it is true. Check out SD as members there have used this offer more than once, and the wine is decent.
B. BB is overpriced depending on what you're buying and when you're buying it. Almost every week Amazon is matching Best Buy's prices for new release movies because they've been beating them for over a year now. And video games; Amazon doesn't even come close.

Sorry but you're thinking of a different wine club. There is no monthly fee. You pay per bottle per shipment, which you control how many bottles and how ofter then shipments are delivered. You can choose either a 4, 6, 8, or 12 bottle plan (red, white, or both) shipped at 4, 6, or 12 times a year. If you join to receive the 1st 6 bottles for $42 and the $40 RZ coupons you have more than enough time to cancel before receiving another shipment, providing you chose to not have them shipped every month.

Second shipment gets you an additional 3000 points ($60 BB dollars). I changed it to a 3 bottle plan for my second shipment. I figure even at $15 / bottle which is what they claim is the high end of average costs I will come out ahead by $15 on the second shipment... and 3 bottles of wine!

Will not ship to Texas. Boo hoo! Excellent deal though!

Valid in the following states only:

AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FL,
GA, HI, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, MA,
MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, MS, MT, NC, ND, NE,
NH, NJ, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI,
SC, TN, VA, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY

So to clarify (sorry I'm a bit slow today):
- $41.95 gets me $40 worth of BB credit + 6 bottles of wine
- Additional $45 (for the 2nd shipment) gets me $60 worth of BB credit + 3 bottles of wine?

So basically, even if the wine is complete utter crap, I can get $100 worth of BB credit for $86.95?

The way I understand it:
The second shipment is not a clarified price. $45 is a guess. They may throw on a shipping charge and / or the wine prices may be different, but yes- you get the jest of it.

How do you change your bottle plan? Call them?

After you sign up the option is on the main webpage. It will say Wine Preference, Bottle Plan, and Frequency. Click on Update to the right of each to change them.

I looked at that, but I couldn't change the bottle plan. I guess I'll have to call them.

Kev

Try again -- the option wasn't available immediately.

Wine.. Best Buy.. Am I failing to see the connection?

Check back, they put up a tracking number for my shipment. I received it a couple of days ago.

I received my first shipment and my wife said the wine was hot. It was delivered via UPS and it's been 100 degrees. I called and they said it's shipped to the state line in a refrigerated truck and then given to UPS. Makes no sense to me.

My second shipment of 3 bottles shipped for a grand total of $70.49!! I will cancel after this one. If it weren't for RZ points, I would never do this.

Kev

I just signed up and my trial has shipped. For those who don't know - its 2,000 points for the first shipment (enrollment), 3,000 for the second shipment, and if you do a third shipment, you get a 6-piece wine tote bag.

The terms say "Must be an active wine club member for at least 21 days to receive enrollment bonus points."

My question - if I change the frequency to 4 times a year and the number of bottles to three, will I still get the 2nd and 3rd shipment bonuses?

Also - how do you change what wines you are sent for the 2nd and 3rd shipments? Do they always just pick them for you?

Seems like a good deal, I'm in. Green for OP!

Hope I can use RZ points to buy gift cards, that's about all I buy from Best Buy anymore...

you can always just use the $40 to buy Amazon GCs at Best Buy

Insane delivery time! Ordered Monday, attempted delivery Wednesday! Unfortunately delivery requires signature and I wasn't home.

Agreed re Pinot Noir-it's really good!

radiation said:   When I go to "My Account" under recent history, in the "Help" column it says "Contact Support". Is this just if I need help with the order or are they asking me to contact support? (Does everyone have this under this column?) I ask because I joined Monday evening and don't have anything under Status, Ship Date or Track. Thanks for any info.

The contact support link is there for anyone having issues corncerning their orders. It's there for me and I have already received my first shipment.

My question again is how exactly the 2nd/3rd shipments work. Do I just wait for them to pick them and send them? I've changed my shipments to once a month, but only three, not six. Will I still get the rewards?

And FYI - you can use rewards towards buying a gift card. I do that all the time. I've been using the Bet Buy Rewards for a long long time. Its the only credit cards I use and has become my entertainment fund! That said, I've found recently that I get twice the amount back via my Amazon/Chase rewards for restaurants, gas, and groceries (0.5% vs 1%), even with silver status. But I also prefer going to Best Buy than Amazon for gear, so its a toss up between the two cards now.

FYI - calling them is a really nice experience. They are quick and easy. She told me the remainder of my points would post either tomorrow or next Friday. Apparently the 180 points thing is normal.
