Pot Luck? Ya...

Order arrived today. Make a long story short, picked up a 50g tin of VA #27 from Mcclelland. Flipped the can, and ya has a year stamped on the bottom from 2001!!! Guess I got lucky and picked a tin no one smokes or was hidden in the back...Very tempted to crack it open.

Anyone else ever get lucky like this???

I've been clearing out my B&M one tin at a time of their aged tins. I have picked up a couple from '01!

i've managed to snag some as late as '97s in the past. never that lucky while ordering online, though.
had to inform the guys at "outlaw" to stop putting the price tags on the bottom of the tins - they kept eyeballin me tearing the stickers off the bottom. it took a couple years, but it has finally sunk in, last time i was there i didn't see any stickers over the tin stampings.
