| Coronavirus outbreak prompts new restrictions on alcohol sales in WA bottle shops |
| 2020-03-25 |
| Alcohol sales have been restricted across Western Australia to prevent panic buying and stop excess drinking during the coronavirus outbreak, with limitations on how much bottle shops can sell to patrons introduced. Under the new restrictions which came into force this morning, daily limits restrict people to purchasing the following: three bottles of wine one carton of beer, cider or pre-mix spirits one litre of spirits one litre of fortified wine But people will be able to purchase across two of those categories under the rules, which will come into force at 10:00am. That means people would still be able to buy a carton of beer and three bottles of wine per day, for example. A litre of spirits and a carton of beer would also be permissible. |

| #2 Meanwhile, in Texas... they still have drive thru liquor stores, and now allow restaurants to deliver beer (draft beer too!) and booze, right to your door. |
