I was in my local abc last week and they tried to give me a sob story about a bill that was introduced to privatize liquor in the state. I told the guy I hope it passes. He got all upset and told me I better get used to paying package store prices. I laughed and shook my head on my way out of the store.

I sure fricking hope so. The first time I visited a duty and sin-tax free place, I was absolutely flabbergasted. Why the frick am I paying $12 a pint for shite liquor?

Sadly, he's probably right. They're not going to complete do away with the ABC, just their retail stores. So the ABC will still distribute it to restaurants, bars, and package stores, most likely at the current price levels.

That sounds like the Hollywood ABC store. Guy there gave me the same story. Got flustered when I asked him to explain that to me. Costco has been my store of choice since.
