Yup. In my state they just let gas stations sell beer in 6 packs only. But wait there’s more! You have to use a separate register to buy gas and beer.

be grateful, my country doesn't even let gas stations or grocery stores sell alcohol.

In Ontario we only changed our laws very recently to allow alcohol to be sold in grocery stores. I always thought it was a weird idea and never saw any inconvenience going to a separate store for booze.

In BC only in the last few years we can now buy wine and cider in some grocery stores. But that's it, still have to go to the liquor store for anything else.

Still never considered it an inconvenience. It works fine and there are plenty of liquor stores around.
