    I figured they'd have figured a way to tax it like they do down here. "Sin taxes" on liquor in the south are crazy high but property taxes stay low....

    The little twister in bham yesterday took out an ABC(liquor store) KFC and oil quick change
    Police stopped the looting quickly

    It looked funny whole store collapsed and liquor bottles standing on the shelves

    So it would be interesting to hear from those around the country what the base rate is on booze and beer.

    Grabbed an 18pk of Mich Ultra for 18.98 today
    2L of Smirnoff runs ~$24

    I didn't catch it all, and what kind of beer there were saying, it's said Bud and something else, I think it was like 15 bucks here and 21 and Pennsylvania for a case

    $12.85 for a 30 pack of Blue Smoothies just south of the border into Illinois. $18.05 here in my small town. Just a quick 5 minute ride to save some coin.

    I'm right on the NY/PA border.
    Most beers in PA $24-$35
    NY $12-$20 per 30 pack

    Not being much of a beer drinker any more, I don't know the prices, nor do I really care.

    If this is due solely to taxes, you'd think New Hampshire and Wyoming would be the cheapest.
    I would have guessed Louisiana.

    There used to be a chitload of bottles on the roadside until that return bill came in. Even now, I see "pickers" looking for bottle money. The good part is our roadside are not littered with cans or bottles. I hated picking up other people's trash.
