I just use a piece of thin wire formed into a loop; (that cork came
out pretty easy so I'll try that one someday too). If you form a loop
and get the cork into the loop it comes right out. I just get the
cork into the loop, wrap the other ends around a doorknob and pull the
bottle off the cork.

Won't the napkin suck up most of the wine? And how much are you going
to pour out while the bottle's on its side and you're getting the
napkin into the bottle? This seems really impractical.

I figure corks aren't all that expensive but if I really wanted to retrieve
it I'd just smack the bottle with a hammer. You put the bottle in a garbage
can or something like that so you don't have glass all over the place. Wash
off cork. Good to go.

I do that for the bottle, not the cork...

I swore that this wouldnt work, and that you'd rip apart the bag when
pulling it out, but it does work slick!
