Booze in the time of COVID-19
Brown Bag Liquor now offers ordering ahead, curbside pickup and more
Well, it’s safe to say the world looks a little bit different right now than it did a month ago. It’s a strange and confusing time indeed, but Brown Bag is here to help get you through it. Because the government has deemed us an “essential” business, we are open for business and fully operational at the time of writing this (April 2), and we plan to stay that way for as long as possible. But just like you and your family, we’ve had to make a few changes to our daily routine – and we’re actually really excited about them! Here’s just a few:
Get Your Booze at the Curb with Curbside Pickup at Brown Bag Liquor
We always love seeing your smiling face in our store, but if you’d rather not leave the comfort of your car, we’re happy to meet you outside. With curbside pickup, that old “No shoes, no service” rule no longer applies. So if you like to drive barefoot, today is your lucky day. But please, please still wear a shirt. That rule is definitely still in effect.
The curbside pickup process is simple and easy, and you can do it from home. Right this second, as a matter of fact. All you have to do is click here. Fill out the form with your information, then type a description of the product requested in the following box. Once your order is placed, we’ll let you know when it’s ready for pickup and contact you for payment.
A New Social Distancing Setup
We’re still the same store you know and love, but things may look a little different on the inside if you haven’t visited in a while. Social distancing is no joke, and we’re taking it very seriously. That’s why we’ve constructed “sneeze guards” at every counter, and we ask that you please remain at least six feet away from the register and other patrons of the store at all times. What is a sneeze guard, you ask? Well, you’ll just have to come in and see for yourself. And when you do come in, you might notice a heavier smell of alcohol lingering in the air. More than normal, which is a lot considering we are a liquor store. That would be the smell of rubbing alcohol, which we are constantly using to wipe down our shelves, products and everything in-between. We’ve always taken pride in the cleanliness of our store, and now our employees are working doubly as hard to ensure the store stays squeaky clean. We’re doing the best we can on our end, and we ask that you do the same. Be mindful of yourself and be mindful of others, and we’ll all get through this together.
There you have it! With a little help from Brown Bag, we can all get through this pandemic together. For more tips and weekly specials, be sure to like Brown Bag Liquor on Facebook and follow us on Instagram. Happy drinking, and stay safe and sane out there!
