Does this stupid state have any idea how much revenue they lose to others on Sundays??

Of course, not that I want to increase Steve\'s work week to 120 hours!

The only people who really lose revenue on Sundays are the stores on the NY and Mass borders....... Bring on the hours!

i think CT\'s major downfall is having liquor stores only open til 9 pm. Sunday\'s can be dealt w/. I\'d be lost if i couldn\'t go to the packy at 10:15 at night.

Stevie would know better than I do, but I feel like increasing hours has a negative affect on local businesses. All of a sudden, the owner of a small liquor store has to either choose to close at 9 p.m. anyway (which could lead to a loss of business over time... I\'m going to the store that I know will be open) or to pay extra to keep the lights on, keep the place staffed, etc. Meanwhile, the Stop and Shop that sells alcohol and is open anyway sees no change except for some extra profit from beer sales from 9 p.m. to midnight.

ZUke and I got a chance to stop in on Friday. The store really looks great. Very nice selection of liquor, wine, and beer...the berkshire beers are especially good. Really glad to see the store come together after months of planning. I\'m sure you are going to kill it Gencs

Steve, The place looked great. We were really impressed! You are going to do great there. And we are very proud of you. Congrats.

No problem. Just getting ready to break into that Lockwood Cab. Nice place you got there. I\'ll be sure to stop by again.

Hey Stevie, try to procure the following two beers for your store:

Untouchable (pale ale) by Speakeasy Brewing based in SF
Chupacabras (pale ale) by Cucupa Brewing C0 - one of the only microbrewers in Mexico.

The best two pales I have tasted ever.

(unfortunately, I doubt either has distribution on the east coast)

Both scored very high at my beer store - each given 96/100 in tasting points.
