My wife bought wine in Toms River and no ID was required. However, the clerk at Walgreens scans my DL for non prescription Allegra D. Go figure...
[hihi]

The feds don't want you and your wife making meth out in your garage with the pseudoephedrine. [smoke]

By law, Walgreens has to limit purchases of it, and they must keep records of your purchase for two years.
 
How about this one, go to Wegmans supermarket to buy wine, beer etc., and if you are with anyone, family member, your children, your 80 yr old parents, whoever, and they don't have proof of age, the cashier will not sell you the alcohol!

Canale's did that to me when I ran in with my 4yr old. They would not sell to me at all. So i went to another store and then they sold to me.
 
its bullshit, I got asked at Wegmans and I was a little annoyed, shit Im gonna be 48. Went to another store a different day and asked the owner and he laughed and said theres no such thing only places corporate choices. I go to smaller establisments most of the time and NEVER been asked and it's not like the know me

Yeh just like Bass Pro telling me it's illegal to sell ammo to me online
 
Wawas been scanning D.L for cigarettes for almost two years
I will let cashier see my id but I will not let then take it .
I refuse to allow them to scan my id
law says (bull sh*t) I need to show id to prove my age nothing about
scanning and storing my info
 
For liquor if some one underage caught with a bottle, they can scan it and see who bought the bottle. At least that's what I was told in college so we would scratch the bar code off. Nothing new
 
I've never seen WaWa scan a drivers license. I've seen the cashiers check the DL for age.

I wouldn't shop at a place that demands on scanning my DL. None of their business, what is their business is keeping me as a good, paying customer.

It is usually not the establishment as much as it is the over regulations from the state. NJ keeps setting rules and moving the bar very often. Businesses have no choice but to implement policies and procedures to reduce the risk of fines from the state. Remember the fines are a cost of business and the more fines means the more you pay at the register. Businesses in NJ are constantly under fire due to regulations that are constantly being changed and differ on enforcement from county to county. I run a business for a national chain and when corporate visits and asks certain questions their response to my answer is always the same. " Oh yea I forgot it is NJ." So do not blame the business, blame the state for looking for every chance to make money from businesses. Thus driving up the costs that we pay at the register. A backwards tax is exactly what it is. Dictator Christie has had them out in full force making money for the state for over four years now.
 
Not where I live. My liquor store even delivers.
