I don't see what's stopping you from walking into any supermarket and buying it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muddycoffee Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Adamd, are you stuck in the 1970s or something? All Supermarkets open on Sundays nowadays and some convenience stores are open 24hours and have stocks of wines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My local Co-op opens at 8am on Sundays but they are not allowed to sell any alcohol before 10am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years ago they had curtains which they legally had to cover the booze up with at certain times on a sunday, but they don't have to do that any longer.

cgksheff Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 No longer restricted by national legislation. It is controlled by the license granted to each individual store. It isn't even common within a specific chain and stores can get it changed with new applications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muddycoffee Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Thanks for that cgk, It makes more sense that each retailer has a license, which can be revoked by the local authority if it becomes a nuisance to the local community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
