It still boggles my mind that you guys can buy booze in grocery stores. Up here in Canada, it's either so restricted it's either a government store (so one per town) or in Alberta's case, a licensed liquor store.

Minnesota's basically just as prudish. Some grocery stores carry beer and wine, but liquor is only at licensed liquor stores. No alcohol sales at all on Sundays, or after 2 AM on weekdays/Saturdays, either (they obviously start up again at 8 AM for daytime shoppers).
