It is why liquor is typically more expensive in Iowa vs. border states. The state of Iowa has to make their cut, so we pay more.
I always make a stop there whenever I'm in town. Big fan of the pallets of 6 packs they have of random beers they always have. Granted some of them might be pushing expiration, can't go wrong with a sixer for $3.99.Seeing the lengths that folks are going to for this really makes me appreciate weekly specials at East Ames Hy-Vee. There’s not as much on sale at once, and some weeks are better than others, but the savings are comparable and don’t require camping out in advance.
