Only open booze containers are illegal.

They call them package stores around here too..

except they're all ABC stores.  The government controls all of the liquor sales, by having all of the liquor stores.  There are no independent stores that are allowed to sell liquor here.

Grocery stores are allowed to sell beer and wine though.

everything else is just borrowed.

Fuck it, we'll do it live.

in finland stores only sell beer and kiddie wine but not real wine. liquor stores are all the same and can sell any booze.

We have both ABC liquor stores (Jax liquors) and all the independents.    Brody's liquors does have a window where you can pick up and pay for your booze.   Its like picking up drycleaning lol.    Its called a package store because people buy so much booze from them, they often come in boxes.
:P   Internets are super serious.

Well, even artsey-fartsey people drink.  They've gotta get their hooch somewhere.

What pisses me off is the asinine laws controlling what hours you can buy alcohol on Sunday, if they even let you buy on Sunday.  Or better yet, dry counties.  That just means you're gonna waste gas driving to the next county just for a bottle of whiskey.
