There’s a locked liquor cabinet at my local store. It’s at the back with the wines and cheeses.

Trying to find someone to open it for you is such a mission. And because it only boasts lower end spirits, you feel like such an fiend chasing down a store member who can radio the person with the key, who takes five mins to arrive, just for a bottle of low-mid tier whiskey.

There’s $10 sake in there. On the unlocked shelf next to it you could grab a $60 merlot.

Might be a liability thing?

Much harder to get alcohol poisoning from wine.

  No, it’s not. The decision on what they lock up is based solely on what’s most frequently stolen. Do you think store employees love having to come unlock the cabinet each time, and then feeling like you’re judging them for feeling judged by them for buying a bottle of low-mid tier whiskey?

    Maybe stop stealing then, you degenerate.

I forgot people have a propensity to steal cheaper things more than expensive things.
