PTA poison wine.... (not serious)

[samithesausage]

It was the kids' christmas fair on friday after school. I won 4 bottles of wine on the booze tombola.

1st bottle was a lambrini with a competition which expired in 2006. (It was a dodgy colour and looked evil, ditched in a bin outside the school!)

2nd bottle was one, when looked up on a wine website said "best consume in 2010"

3rd bottle was a 2008 wine (looked this up on a website as well)

4th was a lidl perry (drinkable).

I ditched the lambrini as soon as I got outside the school. My nan said I should of complained there and then, I said it really is a fund raiser for the school, so you can't complain.

It is the general family consensus is I should complain so they put it in the news letter that they don't want poison old bottles of booze.
My other half thinks I should re-gift it (but not to him)
I think I should leave it as I don't want to cause a fuss or poison anyone (if the worst comes to the worst I'll clean the sink with it)...
What do you think?

Quick update. Opened the bottles today at lunch.
The 2010 wine society saumer was absolutley disgusting. Burnt my mouth! The cork had disintergrated as well.

The 2008 cornaro merlot rose tasted like vinegar.

Lidl perry is drinkable! (Hic) cheers!

I just finished a stint helping on xmas fair too. I'm not on the PTA but am one of the usual volunteers.

All the things we sell or give away as prizes are donations from parents. We spent a whole day sifting through the donations the day before the fair. This included checking use by dates for cakes, biscuit, sweets, wine, cosmetics, sopas, gift sets and various other foodstuffs as well as sorting "new", "clean enough to look new", "ok but needs a wash", "all in one piece", "pieces missing", "er, no" and "OMG chuck it away!".

It took a whole day. (people had been very generous). We were very careful not to miss anything. Then, on the morning of the fair, people brought in last minute things we couldn't check.

And wouldn't you know it, my son won a really grubby bear that I hadn't checked in the bear pile. Where on earth did it come from???

Anyway, I think the problem should be solved by a polite message with requests for donations - something along the lines of "please check for "use by" dates" when you donate and "please consider if you would like you child to buy/win this if they turned up to the fair with pocket money in hand". Or a better way of asking anyway, whilst still being friendly enough to still get invaluable donations.
