At first I was like that's stupid then I started to think how much does the average shop selling alcohol order let alone pubs/bars/restraunts

The world sure likes alcohol but a ** Pk of beer there would be uproar I think if this was England

Makes me think about alcoholics who go to the liquor store intending to buy two ore three airline bottles so they don't drink too much then end up buying a fifth because it's cheaper. Of course, they end up drinking the whole fifth in a night. Somehow, we go from controlling our drinking to being economical with our finances. As a boozehound, I start tallying up how much a huge pack of beer will "save" me! Ah, the insanity of alcoholism!

It's a bit, something for people to laugh about. I didn't take it very seriously. They sell beer in kegs, so this is hardly the worst offender as far as booze sold in bulk goes.

Yeah completely. Unless you were throwing one huge party nobody has any use for this. Marketing gimmick.

Not sure how a drunk on a bicycle would get that home. There's probably also a lot of cars that would not fit into.

And feeling damned proud of yourself for being such a smart shopper, too!
