        Russia and I guess some other ex soc-block countries. 1st of September is the day of celebrating children opening their school season. Moralists restricted regular sale, probably thinking some drinking parents would meet them sober for once, but nodded along on the sale of on-the-table alcohol, a loophole that allows regular bars, restaurants and lookalikes to sell unscrewed bottles, sometimes providing you with a cap so you screw it closed yourself, just like it happens in my area. The other offender is being overprepped for the ban, and that’s what led to my morning demise since I did buy more than I used to consume due to said regulation.

        Does alco mean alcohol? Some states/counties in the US restrict sales based on day and time?
