      Public service announcement: Stock up tomorrow because the tax hike on alcohol goes into effect on Saturday. Yeah, no longer being raped for 86%!  Saturday it’s up to 88%.  Why stop there?

        Yep. Part of the new initiatives from the religiouslature. That and those dumb signs saying this is a restaurant not a bar and this is a bar and not a restaurant and this is a Jiffy Lube not a bar and such.

          The Jiffy lube comment was great. Well done, sir. 

          And thanks for the heads up.

      I will be there. I needed to restock my wine situation anyway.

      I prefer the more premium experience of the wine store on 3rd west by Costco, or even 3rd and 3rd downtown.

      The liquor stores in Sugarhouse or, *shudder* the scary AF downtown 4th west make me feel like a criminal for even going in. Which is funny for a business that rakes in the amounts of money they do.

        I don’t know which is more sketchy: 

        The 4th west Liquor store

        Reams on 27th and State

        Maverik on 35th and 7th west

        Scary places.

          I work right by the homeless shelter downtown. I’d say that’s more sketchy.

            Valid point. I’ve always felt uncomfortable walking past there too.

      I am moving and have a nice collection of wine, much of what I have I can discount to a very nice price if any of you heathens are interested.

      I would remind eveyone that Wyoming is a short drive away and Wendover just as close.  Not that I would condone bootlegging or anything.

        Thinking of going camping in a week or two. Maybe I can make a trip to Evanston area. Is the pricing better there or in Bendover?
