Liquor store that only sells to 30+, I went in today to get a drink for the beach and the man at…read morethe register immediately started to interrogate me about my age before I could even get out my id. I gave it to him and he immediately insisted it was fake. When I told him it wasn't, and to scan it he pretended to scan it, then insisted it was fake and didn't scan (mind you I scan my id to get wine at target like once a month and there's no problem). This is blatant age discrimination and I highly recommend that if you are 21-29 to not even bother buying alcohol here just go to Smart & Final.
