    Does anyone have suggestions or experience with purchasing liquor by the bulk. I'm hoping it'd save me from paying retail, as I'll need about 60+ bottles for a wedding in 3 weeks.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Cheapest place in the world to buy booze is a military PX. Got any friends in the military, or retired but can still get on base? Tax free baby!

    If it was beer, I'd say Costco, but I'm not sure about the hard stuff.

    Spec's warehouse downtown? You could always negotiate with a store owner/manager or something.

    Why do scenes from "Leaving Las Vegas" keep dancing around in my head?

    No sarcasm meant, this sounds like a question that Fatty can answer. I recall that the guy buys everything in bulk.

    I don't think you can get around paying retail, given all the regulation around liquor, who can be a retailer, who can be a wholesaler, and so on.
