Pa. Liquor Control Board Offering Curbside Pickup At Certain Stores Starting April 20

HARRISBURG (KDKA) - The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board is offering curbside pickup at several Fine Wine & Good Spirits locations beginning on Monday.

Of those locations, several Allegheny County locations will be offering the service.

A full list of locations can be found on their website.

"It's been inconvenient because I live right across the street and it was easy to buy liquor from here," said Helen Jenny, a customer. "If you can pick up food from a restaurant why not liquor?"

"I think I would probably engage in a curbside pickup myself, yeah that sounds great," Masa Uzicanin said.

This is also happening after the PLCB announced they saw a 261% increase in online sales in just 15 days after they closed physical stores on April 1.

Those wanting to order from Fine Wine & Good Spirits are limited to one order, six bottles, and must pay with a debit or credit card over the phone.

For some, the shutdowns and stay-at-home orders mean it's a perfect time to have a drink.

"This is a time when having access to alcohol is probably a good thing," said Joel Welling. "I think it's the right thing for them to do."

PLCB says all sales are final.

Orders can be placed and picked up between 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on Monday-Saturday.
