I just moved out of Ohio, and grocery/convenience stores are capped at 40 proof (20% abv) unless they have an actual liquor license. The "liquor" sold at CVS/Kroger is watered down, or under the proof limit to begin with (Bailey's, etc). Normal vodka is 80 or 100 proof.

yeah it was definitely not the *good* liquor but coming from a state where you cannot even buy beer at a grocery store, it was absolutely wild

I grew up in MA with Blue Laws, so when moved to IL for grad school I was legitimately shocked that I could buy actual (full proof) liquor at the normal grocery store. Now I am in PA, Land of Confusing Liquor Laws once again

I still live in puritanical New England (Rhode Island) where the liquor stores close at 6pm on Sundays but the weed drive thru is open until like 11pm 🙌
i have mostly switched to weed at this point

And the drive-thrus are mostly beer and other low-ABV malt beverages (Smirnoff, White Claw, etc.). Maybe a cheap bottle of wine?
