in Maryland, grocery stores cannot sell alcohol at all.
but MD is not as bad as Virginia, where you have to go to state run Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) stores just to get liquor
There are even ten "moist" counties (GROSS) that prohibit the sale of distilled spirits and lack ABC stores.
i'm in chicago now, and i'm still struck when i see the massive liquor/beer selections in groceries. i'll get used to it eventually i guess.
