This Week In Booze: If You Build It

Amtrak is offering a $100 per person alcohol credit to Guest Rewards Program members who take a "GrandeLuxe" trip between November and January.
What the hey-ho is GrandLuxe, you ask?
Oh... just fully-restored, vintage (c 1940s-1950s), deluxe sleeper cars with cushy beds, picture windows, wood paneling, private showers and individual toi-tois. And $100 in FREE BOOZE. You will eat "exquisite meals in an elegant dining car, served by uniformed waiters." There's also free wine with dinner, in addition to the $100 in FREE BOOZE.
Before you and the rest of your ironic bowling team start making plans to get all Crazy Train and spend your $100 free booze credit on 180 PBRs each, be warned: GrandeLuxe starts at $789 per person for a 2-day trip. And, judging from their website, they don't want you, baby.
GrandeLuxe is clearly and shamelessly aiming for a well-heeled and elastic waist-banded AARP kind of clientele. Plus, you'll have to travel through a lot of tunnels and over many bridges.
