Alas in my state grocery stores can only sell wine and beer. Not a big deal for me personally because when I buy hard liquor it’s rum (for eggnog) or Kaluah for sipping, around the holidays mostly, and the state licensed liquor stores are fairly close by here in Portland.
Ugh, state liquor stores are the worst. I stocked up so much when I was in TN over Xmas break. The NC ABC has horrible selection.
