Don't give up wine!!!! </p> <p>It depends on the wine. Whites definitely give me a headache over reds. Some cheap wine give me a headache, some don't. To make sure I don't get a headache, I drink a big glass of water before I go to bed and make sure I have something on my stomach. Most times, headaches are due to being dehydrated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-740835 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 21:07:05 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 740835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hmm I never really thought about it! I never buy super nice wine... usually in the $10-14 range.. but maybe that is really cheap for Canada prices?</p> <p>Sometimes when we go to SC in the summer we get $3 bottles and they are so great.. but we drink so much that we would get a hang over whether it was good or not.</p> <p>I'll have to experiment ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-740831 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 21:03:31 +0000 PrincessBaby 740831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: You rock!

What's that? </p> <p>Haha, I can't hardly remember the last time I had a glass of wine. </p> <p>My favorite was arbor mist blackberry merlot... Im such a wine snob lol. I don't recall any wine hangovers but I never got trashed on wine, I just liked an occasional glass in the evenings here and there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738870 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 08:31:51 +0000 MaisyMay 738870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never bought a bottle over $10 and neither of us has ever been hungover, but I also try to find wines that are 12% alcohol or less.

I try to avoid that one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738499 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 23:17:24 +0000 StbHisMrs 738499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: I absolutely agree with this, there are also some really bad "expensive" wines!<br /> @mrbee: I find that wines with added sulfites give me a headache, check the back label. There are natural occuring sulfites in all wine, but the added sulfites kill me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738466 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 22:15:07 +0000 travelgirl1 738466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: I soooo had planned to but being free has done a number on her sleep. She basically stopped napping for three days and woke up about six times a night for the first three days out of it so I couldn't drink as she wanted to nurse (still won't take a bottle, thus stopping me hitting the bottle). Gah. And today I realised I really, really, really could do with a big fat greedy glass of red. And a dance to some totally cheesy music, which is so not going to happen until I quit breastfeeding. Sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738439 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:53:44 +0000 Happygal 738439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes. Cheaper wine, more than one glass, gives bad headaches. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738438 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:51:51 +0000 PrincessBaby 738438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I should totally do that! He just likes to give me a hard time, lol...He calls it "flirting." I call it "harassment." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738436 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:50:13 +0000 Sapphiresun 738436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, a bottle of wine that would be in the $10.00 range for you guys is probably about $16 here, so I REALLY wouldn't trust a $10 bottle most likely.<br /> I don't seem to have an issue with cheap white wine, but poorly chosen red wine gives me migraines. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738435 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:50:11 +0000 PrincessBaby 738435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: No trader Joe's in SoFlo, but when we move to Charleston in June (shrieks!!!) there is a Trader Joe's in walking distance of our house and I can barely contain my excitement!!! Yes, I am a wino. H is asleep right now and I'm having a massive glass of Layer Cake Malbec (A SPLURGE for me at $16.99!!!)...I copied and pasted your recs!!!! Thank you so much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738429 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:44:58 +0000 yoursilverlining 738429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: do you have a trader joe's near you? They have some decent wines under $8 a bottle. One I like is French; I'm in bed now but I'll get the name for you in the morning. It's got a goat on the label ;)</p> <p>The one that we drink (everyday... haha I know you like your wine like I do!) is La Vielle Ferme. It's also a French red. About $6.99-8.99 depending on the store.</p> <p>I also like the Mondavi Private Reserves which are about $10 a bottle. </p> <p>Just over $10 ($12-$15) is the Marquis de Caseras: Spanish red. Vvvvvvery tasty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738426 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:42:30 +0000 PrincessBaby 738426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelgirl1: Wait- I thought you were going to celebrate Baby Girl's freedom (don't want to say her name in non-gold!)!?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738424 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:41:34 +0000 mrbee 738424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: I am "experimenting" right now!</p> <p>@PrincessBaby: Buy two bottles and scrape the prices off... then do a blind taste test with your DH!! Whichever one he picks, tell him that's the cheaper bottle... haha just kidding! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738422 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:39:31 +0000 PrincessBaby 738422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I'd love to find a decent $8 bottle! If you have any recommendations, please share! I'm always scared to go under $10 for taste and for getting picked on by DH:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738421 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:38:25 +0000 travelgirl1 738421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's just that I'm a lightweight more than the price... but I haven't had a drink in 15 months (am actually dying for a glass of wine right now!!!) so even $1000 champagne would probably floor me at the moment, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738420 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:37:59 +0000 yoursilverlining 738420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends. Not to be too much of a snob, but there are actually really decent wines under $10, and there are real crap, but cheap wines under $10. Just like bad (cheap) champagne, bad wine = hangover. </p> <p>Buy some good, cheap wine and experiment! ;p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738417 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:37:20 +0000 mrbee 738417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: Lately we've been buying $8 bottles. I guess I would define cheap/affordable as single-digit priced bottles of wine? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738415 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:35:32 +0000 PrincessBaby 738415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: What's your definition of cheap? DH buys $20 bottles and I think that's excessive for everyday wine! I think $10-$12 is more reasonable for "weekday wine." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738409 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:34:43 +0000 Lindsay05 738409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Im the same way after just 2 glasses now! Like can't move from the couch hungover. I guess im now a cheap drunk! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738407 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:34:07 +0000 PrincessBaby 738407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not always...Some do, yes. Actually I think it happens more now that I'm older. DH picks on me bc I buy like $10 wine, and I do sometimes get headaches with 2 glasses! But some time ago, that didnt happen! Old age + cheap wine = headache for me:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-cheap-wine-give-you-more-of-a-hangover#post-738400 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:30:42 +0000 mrbee 738400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lately we've been on a serious budget, so we've been drinking pretty "affordable" wine (under $10). I've noticed that sometimes, just 2 glasses of wine can give me a brutal hangover the next day!!</p> <p>Is it just a coincidence? Or does cheap wine give you more of a hangover? </p>
