I know that both Knob Creek and Woodford Reserve are sold in 350 ml bottles. Not as much product, but it brings the affordability back in line with your stated $20. Also I am able to get Old Weller Antique 7/107 and WL Weller special reserve for under $20 a bottle. One other option is to go even smaller Wild Turkey Rare Breed is sold in 50 ml travel size bottles (the old airline bottles). Sometimes this can be an option if you just want to try a bourbon, or you just want a drink for yourself. My liquor store carries them, and this is far more affordable than laying out $50 for a 750 ml bottle.

I also, don't agree, with going smaller while on the hunt to stretch money.
To stretch your dollars...go big...1.75ltr. We often see various handles on sale for $11.99, here. Pick up a couple of these and your cooking, flasking, punch and mixer duty is covered for a couple of months. In that time...you can hunt down a few of the higher priced items off the sale list. It's kind of a two pronged attack.
Spec's has a sale flyer on their website EVERY weekend....they also, have a "key" program that will get you a discount. I have posted a few of the prices in a thread about Local Prices, if you are interested in reviewing some recent history.
