The best part of the ‘no alcohol in the supermarket’ is that the bottle shop is always right next door and usually attached to the supermarket by an internal door. Like at this point they’re just taking the piss.
@Nezuji11 ай бұрын
It used to be that in Australia, the liquor licensing laws meant that it just wasn't worth trying to license a supermarket (the laws simply weren't set up for it). Now some states have amended the licensing laws to allow for wine to be sold within the supermarket itself (although you'll often still need to go to one of the marked "alcohol" checkouts which are staffed by a licensed person), while in other states they're still stuck with the "separate (but not really)" bottle shop. The folks taking the piss are the lawmakers, not the supermarket chains.

@@kaileymoyeah, I was wondering where she was moving from, because it's like that in my state in the US, Connecticut. We call it the package store (or packie) because the alcohol needs to be wrapped up in "packages" (or these days, bags) to leave the shop. And like in Finland apparently, the package store can't stay open past 9pm (used to be 8pm) or on Sundays. It's often connected or right next door to the grocery store, though.

Here in Missouri you are allowed to have open containers in the car, but i think you hsve to have a passenger with you and it must be theirs. But yeah, here in Missouri it is 100% legal for you to drink alcohol in the car while you're a passenger. So basically you can drive around while all your passengers are drinking. I didn't even realize we were allowed to do it until last year. All this time and years I have been thinking open containers were illegal because of me watching COPS(TV show) or Live PD from other states and I just assumed Missouri also had no open container laws. When I found out we were allowed to drink alcohol in the car I alwasy cracked open a few beers when my friend and I were driven home from work from our co worker. We car pooled to save money, so it was a lot of fun, we would switch who would drive throughout the week and the drive home from work just ended up being its own version of a afterwork party or hangout session since it was a 40min drive home.

@@Geozuki554Are you saying that bc of a derogatory/ racial slur or does it have another offensive meaning I'm unaware of? I love learning about what's offensive/ normal/ has a different meaning from one place to the next. Ex: learned that "fanny" in Scotland is different from your backside here in the US. As kids we used to think think those in England's use of a certain word that could mean a cigarette or bundle of sticks was "funny" (we were young for those that want to have a fit over it. It doesn't mean we used the word, bc we knew it was offensive & not okay). I had no clue until my 20's or so that "snogging" was even a word. It sounded so disgusting and I was surprised to discover it wasn't something awful like it sounded. Another one that gets me is when I hear ppl in the UK say that someone "fell pregnant". 🤭 It comes across to me like "Oopsie. Someone accidentally became pregnant/ it happened TO them." Then there's more simple things like saying "hospital" versus "the hospital". "Holiday" versus "vacation". Gotta love how interesting, and diverse things in this world are. 😅

Are you in NSW or Vic? I was surprised by that the first time I went down there. Here in QLD they are completely seperate from Coles and Woolies and highly restricted in where the are located. Every bottle shop has to be "run"/affiliated with a pub where the keys are dropped back to every night, and each pub can only have up to 5 bottle shops (max 1 can be a drive through) affiliated with it, which must be within 5km. That's why there are so many ALH Group (Woolies) pubs these days and Coles has some weird "joint venture" deal going to skirt the rules. That's also why there's so few independent bottlos up here.

It's how it is in Wyoming, too. _Technically_ you can sell alcohol in grocery/convenience stores, but there has to be a lockable door between the main section and the alcohol, and the alcohol has to be bought at a separate counter. Theoretically, it stops kids from going into grocery stores unassumingly and stealing alcohol, and maybe that would work, if I had literally ever been to a single liquor store in this state that IDs. I have watched preteens in middle school spirit hoodies buy alcohol.

Hyvee will do this depending on the size of the store. You have to go through a separate set of doors and they have their own clerks. Kinda like how they do summer garden shops. However most stores just have the dedicated space that's a diffrent color than the rest of the store and most items are in a color or behind glass. And the really expensive stuff is behind the customer service desk. There to even get to lookat prices you have to show ID. If you ever get the chance to come to the US. It's more than obvious. And no cashier is allowed to let a customer buy alcohol without scanning the ID. Yes we scan your legal identification because we have to be sure.
