Does your local Costco Sell Wine and Liquor?

In the Commonwealth of Virginia; Costco stores can only sell beer & wine.
South Carolina Costco Myrtle Beach store sell beer, wine and liquor. I can only speak about the one MB.
Good liquor prices on scotch, gin & volka brands in the Costco MB store.
Costco liquor store is located outside the main store in MB, South Carolina.

Liquor is sold in state operated stores in Virginia.

Costco in Wisconsin - Beer, Wine & Liquor. What else would you expect, it's Wisconsin:rolleyes:
 
In NJ, the wine and beer are in a separate store outside the Costco. At ours (in Teterboro, NJ, and before that in Hackensack), it's operated by Western Beverages, and you don't need to be a Costco member to shop there. Totally separate entrance and you can't get from the Costco to the liquor store from inside. Also, no Kirkland-branded alcohol there that I've ever noticed.

In NY State, we've seen the liquor inside the stores. Is that right, billymach?

In NY state NO!

In NJ some yes some no. The Best location for wine and liquor around here is Edison, NJ.

South in Mt Laurel No. Wegmans next door yes. Go figure.

I just read this again. I was so sure we had seen liquor inside the Costco in NYS! But maybe that was in Massachusetts?

They have beer and wine inside the Costco in Edison? Really? I had no idea they could do that!
 
Isn't this just about whether you can buy various alcoholic products in the grocery store and/or retailers like Walmart and Walgreens or are there places where Costco would be different than grocery stores?
 
Maryland - no.
DC - yes and beer, wine and spirits sold within store.

You can purchase beer and wine in supermarket stores in VA.

Not in British Columbia. You can only buy booze at Government Liquor Stores or licensed beer and wine stores. You can't even buy booze in supermarkets right now. However, that might be slowly changing.

But to answer your original question, no, you cannot buy booze at Costco in BC.

Dito in Ontario....you can't buy booze in Costco. But I remember buying wine at a Costco in LA two years ago and the prices were as good as Trader Joe's......but nothing will compare to the Chateauneuf Du Pape I found for $6.75 on a blow out end of bin cart at the back of a Ralph's in LA that would normally have been in the $30 range. I didn't know that label but took a chance, and it was terrific.
 
It's a "No" in Pennsylvania...but our liquor selling laws now seem to be changing, albeit slowly.

They do sell beer and low alcohol wine in NY Costco. Some locations have a liquor store next door as you exit Costco in NY. Westbury, LIC for example. But they are not affiliated with Costco. Thus they don't have the Kirkland Branded liquors or wines. Like the Vodka, or the 1.75 liter of Spiced Rum!



Yes Edison Costco has a HUGE! I mean HUGE selection and aisles BRIMMING with name brands as well as the Kirkland brand of Liquors, and Wines. I love that location. Too bad I will not have the chance any more to visit. My job commute used to take me past Edition. Moving on to a new job soon.

Edison Costco is as close to a California Costco as I have seen on the East Coast.

Yes, Costco at least legally would be no different than your regular grocery store on if they can sell it.
 
No they should be the same laws. But if Costco is allow to sell liquor and you drink the stuff you have a windfall, as they have good quality stuff at rock bottom prices.

I think in Ohio they only sell wine inside the store. No beer, no liquor. We don't have separate liquor stores outside like I have seen in Florida.

We do get wine at our Avon OH Costco. And DH bought a bottle of Bailey's wannabe there recently. Not sure about beer and other liquors. We will scout our booze options more thoroughly next time we're there!

Yeah, the same Bailey's that they sell in the grocery store.

Costco by Willowbrook as alcohol. The one in Clifton has a shop next door. I am not sure how true this is but I was told the Kirkland brand vodka is either grey goose or belvedere(I forgot which one).

My spouse is a career Costco staffer. Here's the official scoop: The Kirkland brand of vodka that says on the label that it's French, is made by Grey Goose. The other Kirkland one is American vodka, and it's made by somebody else.

In Vermont our one and only Costco sells wine and beer only.

I live in VA so only beer and wine in the Costco, however the Costco in Washington DC sells liquor and my friends sware by the Kirkland brand liquor, so they make semi-annual 'liquor runs' :)
 
In Northern Arizona, yes; In Colorado, no.

I'm still not used to liquor/wine sections in every store I go to in Arizona. There are very few non-liquor specific stores in Colorado that sell alcohol
 
Our local in Milford, Connecticut does but Costco in Norwalk does not. Not sure of other Costco locations.
