They even do kegs... if that's the kind of party you're having. (And if that's the kind of party you're having, please extend an invitation to me.) Apparently the Selden Beverage Center is one location of the "Big Beverage Centers" chain, which I did not know existed until I visited their website. Good to know-- I'll be frequenting their other locations if they're as good as this one!

He then proceeded to tell me he is unsure if I stole one or not. I told him he can check his cameras and my pockets. Bold accusation, bad customer service. Will never come here again.

Best and funniest things just happened on the eve of my birthday. Give me a long Irene minute and…read moreyou can laugh at me. I pop into my favorite liquor store on the way home from Stop & Shop. (It's the place on Portion Rd across from the Farmingville Fire Dept. Near Cancos Tiles and Dunkin Donuts. You'll need to visit.) The owner makes me laugh when he explains why the door alarm is so loud. (If he's fallen asleep it will 100% wake him.) After admitting I purchased pre-made eggnog he was quick to find an appropriate bottle of cognac. (He was visibly horrified. Note that he carries a pre-made version on site. But one should really mix their own at home.) It might very well be a bottle of brandy in the kitchen. Something I nodded to while dreaming of tomorrow. There's a beef braciole I'm eager to try in the kitchen. My request for a Chianti was met with a solemn look. "But that's too dry. You never drink anything like that." He knows me well. I explain there will likely be some hard cheeses prior to the meal. (Which, yes, I already bought.) If my growing Buddha belly is correct, there will be a damning accompanying side of pasta (And bread. WITH BUTTER.). Shh. With a finger to his temple he briskly walks around the counter. And there he pauses, gently gesturing to a bottle of Anno Domini Cabernet Sauvignon. "This will be perfect. And I'm selling it at a reasonable price." Mind you, we never discuss price points when I visit. The joint is appropriately named "Best Price Wine & Liquors" for good cause. Unless I specify, "This is a gift, let's spend more." purchases are reasonable for daily (shut up, don't judge me) consumption. (No Mom, I'm not drinking that often. But if I win the Mega Millions all bets are off.) I'm sold and say, "Great! Can't wait to try it." As we're about to ring me up I mention how odd a mid-week birthday is. But that I had decided a nice glass - or two - of red wine was necessary to properly celebrate officially aging. Screech! All things stop. "It's your birthday tomorrow?!" I nod. "This is on me. Please accept it." Well hello sir! That is quite honestly the best surprise birthday gift to date. It was just so unexpected. There's no need for me to scrounge for a coupon to maybe get a free appetizer. This was easy. I'm stunned by the experience and can't quite express how happy the exchange has made me. Right, so I drive home. I unload the seventeen bags of rocks purchased at Stop & Shop. (Things like seltzer, ginger ale, and so on.) I'm finally ready to relax when I remember the eggnog. I mix some over ice and plop myself onto a stool. Yeah, that stool is older than I am and made of leather. As I sit one of the corners explodes under my weight. I'm still holding the rather large (shut up) glass of eggnog and determined to not spill. Onto the computer. Onto the carpet. Onto the keyboard. Oh, and heck my phone. With the grace of someone other than me, I do not spill. Anywhere. Somehow I didn't end up on the floor. Nor did I bruise my elbow on nearby furniture. Or break some random bone. Or miraculously knock the bottle of wine over. Wooot! [edit] What I failed to mention in this story is how many damn calories eggnog contains. I couldn't believe it when I read the label. So perhaps this was a warning. Am I listening? Uh, no. LOCAL LONG ISLAND TIP: Wine tastings are every Friday from 4pm to 7pm. Holler if you're ever interested in joining me. I have a new favorite thing to do at that time. :)

On the West Coast it's so different, there are big box stores, but everything is sold in grocery stores and they know anything about good, better best choices. I wanted to bring some wine, spirits, bubbly but didn't know what the menu would be, so I asked for help. The staff were so friendly, engaging, helpful and made great recommendations, I would have been lost without them. They gave me options for all possible scenarios, fish, beef, pork, chicken, pasta. They suggested dry, sweet, bold, before dinner, during dinner and for desert some delish smooth, silky perfectly aged whisky to enjoy outside under the stars with a firepit, glowing as bright as the smiles on everyone face. I am so very grateful for the assistance and attention the staff showed me. They helped make my reunion very special and I am sure the next time I am home and need help I will know exactly where to go! Great experience, really nice staff, very reasonable prices and personal attention to my needs makes this a stand out business. Thanks so much for your help, I truly appreciate you!

That didn't occur last week when I shopped here. According to the clerk, they cannot adjust an item that they have on sale in their system even if their sale price is greater than the advertised price of of competitor. What can I say, you either match your competitors price or you don't. Simple right? A simple "override" accomplishes the price match.

Also every time i've been there, they've had 3 for $10 deals on some of the wines, which is hard to pass up. Be sure to check their website as well if you want to find some coupons.
