So it would appear that Jalisco is impossing a prohibition of sorts. The little corner stores are allowed to be open but apparently can't sell any alcohol. I'm assuming Walmart and Soriana won't be able to sell either. Cutting off the flow of tequila is going to get very nasty...........I'm glad Colima is not too far away.

I learned this trick a long time ago in Puerto Vallarta. When a tropical storm or pandemic is on the way, buy in a couple cases of rum and sit it out!

Maybe this will stop bunches of guys after work, beering it up outside the modelorama in Ch. Vista every afternoon and evening. Pissing against the garage wall is one of their isolation sports.

CBob - Any thoughts or ideas on where to send a letter of protest to stop this prohibition of liquor sales. I believe the "powers that be" will regret this decision if it is not rescinded. Just my thoughts.....Barbara

I'm hearing this may only be the municipality of Chapala. Joco apparently still sells liquor.

Can anyone from Joco confirm or deny this?

According to the latest truth or rumor, liquor stores are banned, but liquor sales in groceries are not...at least as yet. The "dry law" has not yet been invoked.

So...if you can drink whatever is offered at Walmart or your favorite tienda, have at it.  Superlake seems to be confused as of yesterday, however.

I think I'll hang onto the unopened bottles of booze that I have. Ya never know. They may be increasing in value. Including that aged bottle of red wine vinegar. Shocked

Alcoholics are going to have a very rough time with no access to booze. They could go into withdrawal or even die with no alcohol circulating in their system.

Coolers and shelves open in Walmart this AM plus mountains of Corona/Modelo just inside of the entrance, not blocked off. I didn't try to buy any but saw several people with bottles in their carts.
