Any of you willing to help me out?

Here is a strange request.
I love'd Ida Red apples when I was a boy growing up in upstate New York. I've looked at a few places online but I refuse to pay $3 an apple. Would any of you be willing to go down to the local grocery store and grab me a bag of Ida Reds then throw them in a box and drop them at FedEx. I'll cover your costs, give you my FedEx account number, and send you a bottle of our yummy Texas made wine from my winery.
Thanks in advance.

 

Just went apple picking last week with the kids, but did not see Ida Reds. If I see any in the supermarket here in NNJ I will pick them up and let you know. Good luck.

 

I was looking for Apples yesterday and didn't see Ida ...I can't recall seeing those in a while . If see them I'll fedex you a bag ...

 

They were at Maskers when I went picking 3 weeks ago.
I don't know if they ship, but check on-line for Och's or Maskers & see if they will.
I wont be heading up that way again this year. Sorry.

Though come Spring, I'll be going up for fresh Maple Syrup

 

I'll look for some for you. Will let you know.

 

I will be passing by a grocery store tomorrow that will probably have them. If the store does have them how many apples do you want?

 

Grab me a bag or if they're not in bags say 15 or 20.
Let me know if you have any success. THANKS!

 

Unfortunately the store didn't have them. I will let you know if I find them anywhere else.

 

Ok thanks

Still looking just in case anyone is willing to help.

Thanks in advance.

 

I haven't seen an Ida Red around here for at least 10 years. Everything is Macintosh and Galas and Macoons and Empires and Golden Delicious. Next time I hit the farm stand, I'm going to ask about Ida's. Interesting.

 

You can maybe buy a tree and grow your own?

Malus domestica 'Idared' Idared Apple from Grandpa's Orchard

 

Amazing how hard it is to find some

 

A local orchard told me that they have them, so I will pick some up this weekend. They are $2.29 per pound.

 

Boy I'd sure appreciate it. A lot of guys here have tried to help out but came up empty. (thanks) Grab a bag or 2 or if they sell them single if you could pick 20 or 30 I'd sure be grateful.
If you get them drop me a PM and I'll send you my FedEx account number and get your address so I can send you some cash.

 

I just picked up 20 Ida Red apples for you. I am going to PM you my phone number so we can figure out the shipping.

 

Class act right here!

 

Ya gotta love f chat!
I nominate this for thread of the month!

 

How much does an average Ida Red apple weigh?...Alex

 

Just checked FedEx..... they are 2 days away.
WOO HOO!

 

One of my aunts lives on an apple orchard up near Syracuse...they used to make and sell apple cider. Next time I talk to her I'll see if she grows and Idareds (I'm not really familiar with apples) and I'll see what I can do!

 

THIS is what I'm talking about! Thanks Kevin and thanks to all of you who tried to help me out.
Now all I have to do is be really nice to the Mrs and I'll get one of the greatest apple pies on the planet.
