Topic: Wine: Liquor Store or Grocery Store? | |
---|---|
They don't sell alcohol here on Sundays but you can go to a restaurant and order it as long as you drink it there. There isn't a time frame as to when they stop selling it either. It is crazy here. Most of the kids are into harder drugs though. My daughter was walking through Walmart down the water and alcohol isle and guess what was sticking out of a case of bud a $20 somebody left for an older person to purchase it for them. She ended up with $20 extra dollars. I bet some young teenager was mad!

I don't know about all states, but here in NY you can only buy beer in a grocery store. Wine and liquor are sold in liquor stores. The government wants to pass a new law that puts wine into the grocery store, charging the store a 1/2% fee on total sales for doing so. Even if stores don't want to they will probably do so in keeping up with the market. This will put more money into the state. What is your opinion? PROS and CONS. You can also by beer in NY in beverage distributors and delicatessens not only grocery stores. I live on LI and have an excellent beer distributor right around the corner from me. |

You can buy beers and spirits at any shop that has alcohol licence in the UK. I think its pretty retarded to have to go to one store to buy beer and another to buy spirits.

Here in Vermont beer and wine can be sold in just about any store. Liquor is regulated by the state and can only be sold out of a store who applies and is accepted by the state liquor agency. It's a license that is hard to get. Usually they are run out of a closed off section of a grocery store.

Here in CO the beer bought in stores is less % alcohol. So most still buy it in the liquor stores. But they are trying to pass a law to make it the same % and add wine .. well if they do the "little guy" will be drastically hurt by it. Why not leave well enough alone! Geesh .. |

I moved from AZ to FL, and was very surprised to find out that FL does not sell hard liquor in grocery stores. Just beer and wine. Kind of a dry county.

Really doesn't matter to me wha they do, I don't drink, so it what it is to whatever decision NY states make and the matter of it all is that for those of you who do drink either you will pay the percentage or stop drinking............

The % of sales paid by the grocery stores is supposed to go to the deficit in the state.
Unfortunately they're not looking at the downside of it. Lost jobs, increase in underage access, and putting the extra money in the hands of someone who does not know how to budget New York's money. |
