Does anyone else hate shopping at the ABC store? |
|
I feel like a lush or a criminal every time I go in there...so much booze to choose from :crazy:
I'm usually the only one in there and I feel like 1000 eyes are one me.
Is it me?

1. Don't let the Baptists get to you like that. |
|
Just flip them the bird when you go there. That's what I did when I lived in South Carolina.
Uh, no I didn't. I went to the Fort Jackson Class VI store. Cheaper than at the ABC, and better selection.

3. It's really weird. Our ABC has a great selection |
|
It's a very nice store--small but nice. Most people don't "shop" when they go in there. They know exactly what they want, get it, and get out. I like to look around. I never know what I'm in the mood for, vodka, tequila, bourbon...so I guess I look funny just browsing or something.

4. I remember the Class VI store at Pond Barracks in Germany... |
|
...we had a ration card for cigarettes and booze.
As I recall, we were only allowed 5 half-gallons of whiskey per month :crazy: Two half-gallons and 4 cartons of smokes would get ya' a German driver's license...

5. As a rule I do not drink liquor |
|
but I DO love going in to ABC stores. Perhaps it is the fact I feel like a lush criminal, but I really get more of a "kid in a candy store" feeling.
I usually end up bringing home some sort of brandy.
:hi:

6. I thought you meant some kind of TV shopping network! |
|
:rofl:
In PA, they are called "state stores" ... because they are run by the state! I don't frequent them, but a lot of people complain about the prices, hours, and limited selection. But just about "everyone" would love to have a job working for one of them!

7. We don't have them, you can buy booze pretty much anywhere here. |
|
Gas stations, drug stores, grocery stores, freestanding liquor stores, Trader Joes (their prices rock!) Costco (ditto)...
