All kidding aside I find the PA alcohol laws just ridiculous.
If I'm planning a party and want a few bottles of wine, a quarter keg of something simple, and a few six packs of something more interesting I have to go to three different stores--and at the last store I can only buy 192 ounces per purchase[1].
All of this insanity because of historical inertia and conclusions drawn from correlation confused for causation. How shocking that the Delaware Total Wine[2] parking lots are regularly packed with PA license plates.
[1] For those who haven't encountered this it's quite a sight. If I go to a bottle shop to buy two 12 packs I have to buy one 12 pack, walk it outside the door to the store, put it down, come back in, and buy the second 12 pack. However, if I go to a distributor I cannot buy a single 12 pack but I can buy 100 cases (24 packs) as easily 1 case.
[2] Total Wine sells beer, liquor, wine, and related supplies in a store the size of a supermarket.
