Package of magical potion bottles?

Speaking as a player of a potion brewer, would it be possible to make magical potion bottles stackable? Or alternately sell some object that, when used, turns into ten magical potion bottles? It would save me a lot of annoying counting and clicking.

Not to mention that it's possible to accidentally buy other potions. Having played several brewers, the repetitive clicking's a real pain.

Stacking wouldn't work I think because it might interfere with having to target a single potion to brew. We have got "bundles of healing herbs" though which spawn 5 herbs into your invent when used. A similar thing for potions bottles would be great.

I remember keeping a box of potion bottles around on brewing PCs, and blank wands too, to save time. It does cost weight and space though, even if you save on rusing.

I once had an order that totaled 56 potions.  With a gnome wizard who had basically no strength, I had to make several trips just to get the bottles.  Surely a few clicks won't wear you out too much.

Well, I've played lots of brewers Nd I know that sometimes it works when your making them. By that I mean it stacks then into 10's but I think it's a wonderful idea.

I think it would be a nice addition, if you could stack bottles. A potion weighs 0.1lb, so 56 would still only weigh 5.6lb, which isn't much for such a large supply.

Hmm, i think the package of magical bottles would work nicely giving it a reduced weight seems as it would be magical. Medium crate (5 bottles) large crate (10 bottles).
