Oh definitely agreed, the system here definitely isn't broken at all; I just don't see it as a big deal is all. If there's beer in the fridge at the convenience store, just seems like another option to me. I'm just of the opinion that is businesses want to do that, they should be allowed to. There's all kinds of daily items already sold at convenience stores for inflated prices that you would only buy out of convenience anyways; adding alcohol to that inventory is just another option for the consumer.
