Rant then Rave: Buying Alcohol
Posted: May 20 08, 8:09 pm
So I asked my husband to pick up some beer from the grocery on his way home. He's there roughly at 6:00, but they won't sell him beer because of the primary. His receipt said 6:01, but he didn't really argue the matter. Polls close at 6:00, sales should re-open then too.
So as my husband is putting the kids to bed, I decide to walk to the store before the game. I only take my keys (which has their discount card) and my card to pay. It wasn't until I head to the register that I think, I might need ID. But I've been shopping here for years, so I don't worry too much about it. I get to the register and the lady asks me, "I hope you have ID with you." I laugh and say no. So after a little hassle with someone in charge at the service desk, I'm allowed to buy the beer. Less than two years from turning 40 and I'm being questioned about buying alcohol! Sweet!
