| What? No one here took basic algebra. The basic formula that I point out above can easily be calculated with any palm pilot right there in the wine shop. There are a couple of calculations that can get the QPR number even further out than two spaces but you must a tape measure with you. You determine the circumference of the base of the bottle and the length of the cork. Those two numbers added together are squared and then divided by the price. Once you get that number you subtract y (y=average $ for the same wine group) and you have your QPR.
If you are interested in doing this you might want to consider getting a key chain like this one. I've also heard of bolo ties that have tapes built into the medallion but I can't fine one here on the web. | | | |

| QPR is too complicated!
How about CAG?
Cheap and Good!
