    Which one? I find DC liquor store prices to be pretty outrageous, almost as bad as Manhattan - I see $25 bottles marked up to $35 at some places.

    The only time I've really gotten a good deal on any alcohol recently not including ABC is when the goofballs at Giant think they have to clear the shelves of Goose Island Bourbon County Stout because they think it's seasonal and going to go bad. So they'll sell the $15 bottle for like $5 in March

    That beer will age for years, you could sell it at $25 or 30 in November. I guess they just want to have more shelf space to move 4 loko.

    Good points. Grocery stores are one of the toughest businesses. They have very tight margins. I think tax or rent incentive might be better ways to lure stores into underserved areas.

    their prices seem rippy offy on most stuff but your'e right, they do have good deals on single malt - i only buy one bottle a year maybe I will buy it there, though driving over there sucks, will probably end up paying more in parking lol.
