Duty free drink

**The Wildcats** · 07-06-2004, 15:16

We are traveling out on 30th June from Manchester and was wondering is it cheaper to buy some drink (Vodka, Bacardi) from the duty free or to wait and buy it from a store in Kissimee. We are staying in a villa at Westridge and will be doing a bit of shopping on our first day, probably at Wall Mart or Publix

Thanks

We always get ours once we are out there $24 for a huge bottle of Vodka - I think its 1 1/2 litres. Look out for the local liquor store - Walmart and Publix don't sell it.

Where are you staying?

Publix at Poinciana Place (corner of 535 and 192) and Publix at Champions gate both have a seperate Liquor store. Walgreens also have a seperate liquor store, but the guy behind the counter there said that Walgreens were gradually pulling out of the liquor business.

didn't realise that Walmart/Publix dont sell alcohol, could I possibly be really cheeky and use this topic to ask where the nearest liquor store is to Hampton Lakes.....

I'm sure when we were at Walmart 2 years ago, we bought beer/wine, or have they stopped selling alcohol all together. This seems a bit strange for a huge supermarket not to sell alcohol!

They sell no alcohol at all at our local supermarkets in MA....
They had wine in the Walmarts in FL at Christmas.....

Walmart and Publix both sell Beer and Wine.

They have a seperate liquor store next to theeir main stores for Hard Liquor such as Vodka, Jack Daniels etc.

It is only spirits that are not sold in the main stores.
