    Liquor and beer are controlled by the Commonwealth here in PA. We've still got a bunch of "dry" counties as well.

    Sigh.

    All I can get at the 7-11 here is a slurpee.


    Hey Blue, I've had a wine called "Pink Truck" before, it wasn't too bad. I like to try wines that have interesting names. Have a had few that were nasty, but for the most part, not too bad! I did have one called "Fire Hydrant Red" before, and that was just really nasty!! It was like vinegar, lol.

    That's correct! And no state tax on anything either. How bizarre is that??
    I love it!!! If I buy something for $2.99 - it's $2.99 - period! It's so annoying when I make a purchase out of state and have to wait till they ring up that one item to see what it's actually costing me.

    I'd re-label it Chateau Parc du Traileur, just to be snobby Peanut Noir made me laugh right out loud!

    I looked at this thread because the Wal-Mart nearest to me just started selling beer a couple of months ago. They don't offer wine, though. I think the corporation is trying to convert this one to a "Super" where they carry a full line of groceries. The food items they do sell (snack foods, boxed, canned and frozen) are usually cheaper than the supermarket, bottled water usually is and a gallon of milk always is.

    We can't buy any alcohol ecept in licensed stores. When I lived in Oregon for a short time, it always seemed weird that you could get it in the grocery store.

    I am a strong supporter of BC wines, and my FAVOURITE winery of all time is See Ya' Later Ranch http://www.sylranch.com

    I love what it stands for. When I went there in the summer I bought 3 whites and they were all fantastic. Their 2007 Reisling is the best I've had, and I normally prefer dry whites.

    Burrowing Owl is the best for Merlot. http://www.bovwine.ca They are trying to preserve land for the burrowing owls in the area, which I also greatly admire.
