Boozing at Home
I consider this the "DUH!" headline of the week.......
Retail alcohol sales soar during coronavirus pandemic
No sit-down restaurants.
No bars.
Very few places offering curbside drinks.
What can be expected?
Beer sales climbed more than 20 percent between March 8 and April 19, coinciding with governors' stay-at-home orders, according to data compiled by the Connecticut-based analytics firm Bump Williams Consulting.
During that same time, wine sales jumped nearly 30 percent, spirits sales rose nearly 40 percent and hard seltzer sales skyrocketed some 330 percent, according to the firm.

Liquor stores with drive-through windows are absolutely killing it right now.
People may do all they can to avoid the #StupidCorona -- but those who want/like to drink are gonna drink.
Grace & Peace & Love to you all -
Matt
