I'm heading to the LCBO now to avoid the after-work rush. lol

Just got back from the one at Galleria Mall, no line up whatsoever. If you're able to get to this one, I'd recommend it.

But I will publicly announce here and now, I'm going to be in the US for 4 days weekly starting in 2010, so anybody needing alcohol/tobacco remember to start asking since I don't really indulge in either, I can bring them over as "gifts"....

Hello friend!

I just got back from LCBO in oakville (dorval & north service) and it's really busy!! You can tell that the shelves have decreased with the number of bottles.

I just saw a woman purchase $708 worth of wine (I dunno if it was for a wedding or just stocking up?!), but ya, everyone's carts were filled with booze.

I guess ppl are really taking this seriously lol

RJ or somebody at work said s/he saw some lady get a bunch of booze for a wedding for this weekend but she was basically dying of stress since she had a community centre booked for the wedding but with the other strike going on, she lost her venue. now imagine trying to find a venue for a wedding in a couple of days?

the "pharmacy" never goes on strike.

That was my second thought (first being garbage) when I heard about the strike.
Anyone who had their wedding planned at a city park is fucked

THAT'S JUST CRAZY TALK!

Just got back from the LCBO(liberty Village). Some shelves were definitely empty, and most had less stock than normal. The stolichnaya section was completly cleaned out.

The guy at the check out said, yeah its busy now but its going to be worse come 5pm. The other problem was that they did not have enough staff to man the check out and stock the shelves at the same time.

It's funny how the general population looks down on drug addicts, and then rushes to the liquor store as soon as there's even a threat of them not getting their precious booze for a month.

Posted by Sasha on Jun-23-2009 20:53:

perfect timing. i've been tryong to cut down for the longest time now.

Posted by Abercrombie on Jun-23-2009 20:53:

Because of the monsterous amount of people, and the employees giving a rat's ass the last few hours, the shoplifters will have a field day.

^^ thanks for the tip!

Strike was avoided and they are still open for the time being. Nice little boost in sales yesterday for them I bet
