Who really knows? Â Maybe the store's register is programmed to flag anything coming out of the "Liquor" department just in case something is questionable? Each item has many variables attached to it like department, taxability, food stamp eligibility, restricted hours, etc. Â It may just be easier to leave the salt programmed like the other liquor items. |
My local Von's has the "salt" in the liquor dept and spice isle. One restricted and one not, same salt? I'm going to test this one. This could be really funny, like it's not already.

In Colorado, where you can't buy any liquor on Sunday I had this experience once.
I was out of Bloody Mary mix... so I went to the local convenience store that had a liquor store attatched (you can't buy hard alcohol or anything more than 3.2 beer anyplace other than a booze shop) to get a bottle of mix. Even though the mix had 0% hooch in it, there was no way they could sell me anything for the liquor store on Sunday. That's the way the blue laws read. I'm sure that AZ is the same way. The guy that owned the conveniece store said to me that the liquor store doesn't even exist on Sunday. I ended up getting a couple bottles of V8 and some tobasco...

Angie here:
Sounds like a newbie. Â As a clerk in the situation, I run over to the shelf (I go myself because the box help is too dang slow) get the price, punch it in as a grocery item, since that's what it is, and good to go. Â There are many ways to be smarter than the computer. Â Use your brain folks. Â  |
But at the stores I shop at, they're not smarter than a 5th grader. They do ask me if I need help taking the salt to the car though. Some day I'm going to say Yes.

Back in the day, it was much the same for me at Market Basket. Ran the Liq Dept and we closed it down on Sundays, even had "fencing" to shield it from the customers...
No liquor, mix, salt, bitters (?), etc. If it had a Liq Dept sticker, we'd just ring it on Grocery (Angie style)...
