This. And a lot of the alcohol comes from vendors, not warehouse.
And flip point of view of this story from when I was a manager for one of the aforementioned, I would have LOVED more customers coming in for ice cream. Rather than those coming in screaming and yelling drunkenly, half dressed, vomiting, using obscene language, harassing other patrons and/or fighting with me or my employees to scan the alcohol even when it was past the hour of allowed sale....or TOO EARLY IN THE MORNING to be sold. This, in a nutshell, is the picture of alcoholic destruction. To me at least.
Please frequent that Walgreens for all your weekend ice cream needs, they'll adore you for it.
