I was wondering who maimed the only six-pack down at Front Street... it was so sad, like observing the progress oft a three-legged dog (a creature which hops...)

See, it's a pain in the ass when people do that. Isn't it?
No, I'm glad people freely use LCBO policy. But buying just one bottle makes me feel bad for those poor sods working in the stores. :wink:

If the LCBO offered singles displays of products that come in six-packs there wouldn't be a problem.

Uhh yeah....I was joking. I shulda put a smily face or something, sorry! :)

I'm probably one of the only LCBO emloyees who encourage it!
If you`re reading this, there`s a 15% chance you`ve got a significant drinking problem. Get it fixed, get recovered!

Central Toronto is now listing. Sweet. Methinks a lunchtime trip is in order.

That is a great store location - I mean the area seems a bit rough around the edges but this keeps away the yuppies so there is often more store stock. I recommend people check here.

Same with Brimley in Scarborough, good residual stock availability.

Sorry lagerale, I grabbed the last one from Keele. It is a pretty good store.

Wilson and Dufferin store didn't have it out when I looked last Friday night, but lcbo.com shows they do now. Don't know what that means.

No store in the selected city has inventory for that item. Please go to the previous page to select another city.

I must give credit to the uneducated LCBO clerk this afternoon.

He had no idea what Rogue Dead Guy Ale was, never heard of it, didn't know it was a beer, though I should go to the beer store to buy it.

He did check the system , and did go into the stock room to dig out the case so I thanked him for taking the time to actually investigate.

Shouldn't they know something about the products? I'm sorry but to say you have no idea? I'm not just talking about the world of beers but this wasn't some 16 year old at Walmart who didn't know where the Huggies were located.

I'm grateful for his extended customer service and that made up for his lack of knowledge but I just thing the clerks should know these things
