This is commonplace in Japan when I'm there, and it's incredibly convenient.
It might also destroy the current industry, where there are not multiple sources of income to offset low prices. Right now, prices are only available cheaply through large chains, with the buying power to lower the cost from suppliers, and work in volume. This might end up closing a lot of corner liquor stores.
