Freinds do this regularly and sometimes have been caught and it's down to a game of bluff. The request maybe $20 a bottle of wine. Friends have just said, sorry for the misunderstanding you can keep it. The come back drops to $10. They usually get it through for $5 a bottle and they always take in 6 bottles. They tell me it usually comes down to how many are involved in checking the bags. The more involved the more the they have to pay per bottle. They work out on a $10 bottle costing them a max of $20 which is still cheap compared to the woeful wine sold in some places at $55 + a bottle. After a few weeks I hang out for a wine and I will shell out for a bottle but I try to get by. There is only so much beer, spirits and cocktails one can drink.
