Never heard of mischief night! Heard of h@ll night, but like MOG, it's not around here. What about the places with a drive through liquor store? What's up with that? LOL Sounds a bit on the dangerous side to me!!

OMG, I have never seent hem before I moved to MD. I live 2 minutes form one!! I can count at least 5 with in 30 miles of me!!!!

I always though, why would you have a drive thru so a drunk can drive through it? No, you can drive someone who iS drunk to the store but then the driver has to be 21! Ay.
They are great for when you have a little one in a car seat and you can drive through and get your cigarettes w/ having to go into the gas station luggind a carrier around.
Oh, and I don't smoke in the car...it kinda seemed like I was saying that.

LOL

They used to have them here, but they were all gone before I was old enough to drink. Only they only sold beer since liquor by the drink only came about here a few years ago. We also used to have drive thru package stores, where you could buy beer by the six pack, 12 pack, case or even kegs, you drove in and placed your order right from your car!

I went to drive thru daiqui places in New Orleans! You could get really big daiquiris like 48 ounces I think it was. Yum

Re: Are you Yankee or Dixie?

That does sound convienent to have a "brew thru" but also sounds rather dangerous. Maybe that's the old foggie in me? The idea of getting a daquiri sounds pretty tempting, though, but I"ve never had a low-carb one! I much prefer Guinness to any other drink.

Re: Are you Yankee or Dixie?

OMG that is too funny!!!

I always wondered, I have never seen a drive thru in states where they sell liquor in the grocery stores. Do they sell liquor in your grocery stores?

Re: Are you Yankee or Dixie?

Not in Kansas...only 3.2 beer. In Missouri, they sell everything! It was quite a shock to me when I moved to Kansas from Missouri. I was used to one-stop shopping!

Re: Are you Yankee or Dixie?

Here we can buy beer and wine at the grocery and convenience stores. But you have to get liquor at County run liquor stores called ABC stores (ABC stands for Alcohol Board of Control) You can buy beer and wine 7 days a week but liquor only mon-saturday...stupid really, people just stock up on Saturday or they get just as drunk on beer on sunday if they run out of liquor! But, you can get a mixed drink in bar on Sunday after 12 noon, you just can't buy a whole bottle. All very silly really.

You can buy most kinds of alcohol in any store in England. Well grocery stores anyway.
