Need to buy Liquor in Bulk - suggestions?
I'm getting married in Septmeber, and need to provide the liquor to stock the bar? Coming from Chicago, normally I would go to Costco and buy it there, as the bottles are large and the price good. However, they don;'t sell liquor at Costco in Charlotte. Any other recommednations other than ABC Liquor?
Thanks

Thanks...beer and wine are sold at Costco and Sam's; however, I need the hard liquor variety...vodka, gin, scotch, whiskey, etc.

Sorry, I guess you meant the harder stuff. It's all alcohol to me. LOL
Maybe you could try to work out a deal with the owners for a bulk rate or try to shop on-line.

Southern Spirits just across the border in SC seems to sell a lot  I see their banners everywhere and it might be cheaper than the ABC. Have no experience, mind you....but it could be an option. They are on Lancaster Hwy just south of Ballantyne. Fill up on gas while you are down there. Lots cheaper than NC. |

Totally agree... SC is cheaper and it won't hurt to ask if they'll give you a bulk deal.
The one I go to is in Fort Mill off of Main St.

Frugal McDougals at the Carowinds exit in SC. You will likely have to sign a consent or waiver form stating you are not reselling the liquor. But you should be able to get bulk there under these conditions.
