| I asked at a liquor store, here in WA before and they said their computer system didn't allow it. I think if they update their computer system, the profit from the gift cards would make up for the new system. |

| I don't know. In Ontario the liquor store sells them. Maybe it's just the laws in your state? |

| The Liquor stores here in Washington State are owned fully by the state. My guess is the State has no interest in designing, marketing, and setting up a system for gift cards. Since it's the only way to buy Alcohol in the state they have no competition. If they had to compete with a different business they might do something like that. You could always try sending a letter to the Liquor Control Board and they might listen to you. But more than likely not. It's not enough gain to worry about it. |
