OT - PSA - Drizly.com

Full disclosure (for Desertscrub). This is TOTALLY an advertisement. Not because I have any financial interest in the company, but because I've used them twice and the service is outstanding. Any of you fellow PLs ever find yourself three sheets to the wind, writing some bullshit on TUSCL, you run out of beer or liquor or whatever, and you're either too drunk or too lazy to go to the liquor store? I've been seeing TV commercials and getting the online ads for a service called Drizly. I'm skeptical by nature, so I've been ignoring them for a long time. Finally last week I said WTF and gave it a try. First of all, the prices are similar to what you'd find at the store if you went there in person. There's beer, wine or hard liquor, name your poison. They add a $5 delivery charge and tips are, of course, encouraged. My first order (a bottle of Grey Goose) arrived in 13 minutes flat. For fuck's sake, I wasn't even ready and had to put some pants on in a hurry to answer the door. Tonight I was about to walk across my very busy street to the liquor store, but rather than risk my life with 18-wheelers flying past, I ordered again. It took a little longer - 15 minutes exactly this time, from the order confirmation until the guy texted me that he's at the door. I'm not sure if this is available or legal in every state, but shit man this is a good service and reasonably priced. Both times I added a minimal tip online and then handed the guy an extra five bucks when he arrived faster than I expected. I could be wrong, but my guess is that it's not like Uber Eats or Door Dash. I think the liquor stores sign up with Drizly and then they send their own people with the delivery. Like a stock boy... they get an order and tell him to quit stocking the shelves and drive this bottle down the street. Makes perfect sense. [view link]
