They fluctuate a lot. If u have a typical booze u buy, I’d shop around and find where u can get it cheapest and become a regular of that store. For instance I’m a gin drinker. A pint of Bombay Sapphire is $9.99 at one store in my neighboring town, and $16.99 for the exact same bottle down the road from me. It’s crazy.

That’s nuts fluctuation for a brand every store carries

Same advice. I like bourbon and beer so my preferred store has a larger selection of both, with lots of niche and specialty options that fluctuate seasonally in my price range so you get variety.

In my experience you can divide them between the street font stores in more built up areas, “wine stores” as I call them that fill the floor space with wine and shelves with party drinks, and what I think of as package stores that are larger and have more variety and better deals for bulk purchases.
