recently the blue laws were mostly repealed here. RI still has em though. liquor stores here can now open on sunday, and stay open to the usual maximum time, 11pm. most close at 6 though. cept holidays of course. xmas, thanxgiving, memorial day, and labor day, they are closed. open on the 4th for some reason.

It doens't matter, just stock up. I'm all out of bourbon but I did find some rum and vodka because I usually keep some bottles of the stuff I don't drink very often around. So it's no problem. Organize drunkards, organize!

CT is closed every Sunday, every holiday, and by 9pm any other day. Most packies close at 8pm Mon-Thurs and stay open until 9pm Fri and Sat.
I just wish there were some actual drunkards around here who can handle themselves like adults while still acting like retards - liquor&poker

Alas, not Texas- we have until 9pm Mon-Sat...well, if you're not in a dry city. Hoping a few of those Libertarian votes might change that, in a few decades, heh.
