Restrictions on alcohol trade have raised concerns among some in society that alcohol supplies are always too low.
Now, during Ligo, is beer still being consumed more, or are shopping habits changing? A post on social media has caught attention, where the author humorously admits that the bans make him nervous because there is always a feeling at home that "there won't be enough drinks."
"These new alcohol bans make me nervous, and there is always a feeling that there won't be enough booze at home and that I can't buy it already or yet," writes the author of the post, adding an image of an impressive row of wine bottles.
He jokes that now he has to buy "a little more" than he would usually buy. When the bottles are arranged on the kitchen table, it still seems like there are too few, and he probably needs to go shopping again.
"I see that there is a lack of French wines. If these bans become even stricter, I will have to build an extension to the garage to stock up more," he jokes.
In the comments, some people admit that this topic does not particularly concern them because they do not buy or drink alcohol. One commenter writes: "How nice that at least this thing is not a problem for me. Because I don’t buy or drink. But I do have some gifted supplies."
Others, in turn, admit that they buy alcohol not for everyday use, but for guests and celebrations. "In my case, it’s like this: I don’t drink, but I buy. Because guests come over, and I need to serve something for dinner; it would be pointless to spoil a magnificent meal without a glass of good wine," notes one commenter.
The discussion also raises the question of whether there is any reason for concern at all. "What are these new bans?" asks one user. Meanwhile, others, looking at the attached collection of wines, urge to replenish it. "Oh, I see there are excellent wines there. The collection definitely needs to be replenished!" writes one commenter.
Some people view the topic quite calmly. "I have no stress — if it runs out, so what. I’ll be healthier," comments one user. However, others point out that there should still be supplies at home, especially if people often come over. "Great! But guests do come to me, I can’t think only of myself. There should be a stock," writes one commenter.
Another participant in the discussion reminds that guests themselves should also take care of their drink choices: "Guests are obliged to bring their own treats. If they didn’t bring anything, it’s their fault." To this, another commenter adds: "Well, well, this is not a school evening with baskets."
