Walmart shelves in Springhill, Mansfield, cleared in EBT glitch

and just when I became a fan of Yuengling, I learn they dont sell it West of the Mississippi

Georgia just made it "legal" a few years ago....

You can do whatever you want to your wife, just keep it behind closed doors.

Shouldn't you be moonshining in the woods?

I don't like whiskey.

That's good stuff.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Yeah my new state doesn't sell beer or any other alcohol in the grocery stores and all the package stores in town close before I'm ready to head to the store and get some beer, so I haven't actually had any beer here except at my in laws place, they usually have a couple beers in the fridge when I go over.

There are no liquor sales in grocery stores in my state.

:blink:

The only place to buy beer/wine/liquor here in MA is the package store.

Umm...what the heck is a package store?

okay i'm not the only one who didn't know...

 

[snickerd3]

I figured it was maybe a liquor store, which appears to be the case.

 

[engineergurl]

package store = ABC store = liquor store

depending on the state they carry different things...

 

[snickerd3]

package stores around here are the fedex/kinkos stores, or the box and go sort of places.

 

[mudpuppy]

Package store sounds rather dirty. Like, "hey, baby, wanna buy my package?"

You left out red dot store.

Um, our liquor stores have drive thrus. Does that count?

 

[snickerd3]

some of ours do too!

We have one of those "mega" liquor stores that claim to have almost anything available. It even has a "bomb-shelter" where there is an entire room dedicated to bombers...

 

[MA_PE]

Sorry, I forgot the term was unique to the New England area. Yes the "packie" is what we call the beer/liquor store.

A quick google search providfede this background

Pretty much the only liquor store on the north side of town:

In picture #5 of the above link, on the top right part of the floor plan is the cooler area. The double doors on it lead to the bomber room.

I have been going to this store for over 2 years and I have yet to venture to the left half of the store (never been left of the "Champange" circle)...

Yup, basically. Or a UPS Store.

Some of our stores are called package liquor...Mingle's Package Liquor Store or Goofy's Tavern and Package Liquor. I think of it more as a place to buy liquor that also has a bar attached.

it just became legal to buy beer in Georgia on sunday last year!

unless of course you had a military ID and then you could buy it on Base /Post but dont let your friends know that cause they will often times beg you to buy booze for them on Sundays... #premium
