Are you drinking more alcohol the last couple of weeks?

One of the reasons for asking is that alcohol sales are up by a substantial amount. Just curious if people are stockpiling, drinking more or both.

Stockpiling here. But that was before the governor designated liquor stores essential. I have at least a 6 weeks supply.

People stock piling alcohol >70%/140 proof for it’s sterilizing properties?

I said about the same since I haven't had a drink in over 27 years and don't really plan on ever having another one. Now carry on.

Sedative properties would be my guess.

Per the governor, yes. And he did have a legit argument for it.

I don't really drink to often, I guess my habit is my snuff but I have slowed that down quite a bit. Just want to make sure we can pay bills and eat, til I find another job.
Everything will work out and everyone will be back doing there thing soon, just have to deal with this bump in the road in our lives for a bit.

Try MagnaFlame, Its made with real cinnamon and you'll never drink Fireball again. I don't care for it myself.
Went to Spec's yesterday and as you enter the store they have bottles of alcohol/liquor that is available for making hand sanitizer, only had three bottles left.
We restocked the bar and we are good to for awhile but being that she is working from home until further notice, I might to have restock the bar by Wednesday.

Bisset. He's a good fellow. I'm sure he's hammered right now. Hopefully he is still working and doesn't have to resort to fireball, he liked the good stuff.

I voted #3, I gave alcohol up back in the late 80's, gave up cokes and tea 1999. Just couldn't ever get a taste for beer or whisky.

Dumb question. They always ask about alcohol on those forms when you make a visit to a new doctor. I lie.
