The Cellar - View Single Post - What "Blue Laws" are in effect where you live ?

Years ago (many) we lived in Dallas, and stores were closed on Sundays,
or had aisles roped off so only certain goods could be purchased.
We moved to Boston, and same thing there, only much more so.

PDX TV also covers Vancouver, WA, and we are seeing both pro/con ads
for a ballot measure to close Washington's State-operated liquor stores,
and to allow alcoholic beverages to be sold in stores.
I don't know if it would be only "liquor stores", or groceries and stop-n-robs, too.

Oregon has state-operated liquor stores too, so I'm sure the measure will come up here too.

What other types of Blue Laws are (still) in effect where you live ?
