Once home to extremely cheap wine, now it’s FREE!

In a strange attempt to boost wine sales and to shrink the “Wine Lake” (overproduction of wine due to recent and growing competition worldwide), 400,000 bottles of wine are being given out for free.

That sounds kind of cool and all but WAIT! they are being given out at the toll booths ALONG THE ROADS TO DRIVERS in southern France.

Has the south of France lost its collective mind? [via]
