Bottle shops open good friday: A blessing or a curse?




It's that time of year again: Good Friday. A day of reflection, repentance, and—for many—a chance to stock up on their favorite alcoholic beverages.

Yes, you read that right. Bottle shops are open on Good Friday in many parts of Australia. And it's not just your local milk bar taking advantage of a loophole; major chains like Dan Murphy's and BWS are getting in on the action too.

So what's the big deal? Why are bottle shops allowed to open on a day when most other businesses are closed?

The answer, it seems, is simply that there's a lot of demand for it. According to a recent survey, over 40% of Australians drink alcohol on Good Friday.

And while some people might find it a bit sacrilegious to be buying booze on a holy day, others see it as a perfectly acceptable way to celebrate the occasion. After all, Jesus himself was known to enjoy a glass of wine with his friends.

So what do you think? Is it a blessing or a curse that bottle shops are open on Good Friday? Let us know in the comments below.

Personally, I think it's a great thing. I mean, who doesn't love a cold beer on a warm spring day? And if you're planning on getting together with friends and family for a barbecue or a picnic, it's always nice to have a few drinks on hand.


Of course, it's important to drink responsibly. But if you're going to drink, I say go for it. Just don't forget to designate a driver.


Cheers!
