Liquor stores and the 4th of July

His point was that he didn't want to see the law changed to permit sales on election day or holidays. He's happy with the status quo, and why shouldn't he be?  After all, have any of us ever seen a liquor story with a 'Going out of Business' sign?

The only one I have ever seen was a "For Sale Sign" And i'm sure it was at a inflated price. lol

Too bad they don't sell real beer or wine.

Exactly.

Of course independence wasn't exactly religion based.  But its the thought that counts.

I thought the election day closing was repealed by a referendum vote a few years ago?  It only narrowly passed, as I recall.

I believe that's correct.

Wikipedia says you're right, that you can now buy liquor on election days.

(This is a handy reference, BTW. I use it frequently to figure out whether I can buy beer on Sundays when I'm out of state for a weekend, or whether I have to buy Saturday and lug it around an extra day).

The Texas rule, you can buy beer 'til midnight on Friday night, but 1am on Saturday night, is one of the most confounding to me.

Thanks for that. I'm soon moving to Oregon to help my father out, and could not remember the times there. Although they do charge a deposit on the bottles glass and plastic to get you to recycle them.
