Wine Shopping: Photo of the Day #24

It took longer than I would've liked to buy two bottles of wine at the Systembologet. With the state having a monopoly on the sale of beverages with an alcohol content higher than 3.5%, prices ain't cheap. With the dollar week versus the kroner, prices for alcohol are almost twice as much in Sweden as in the States. Consequently, we tend to think through our wine purchases more deliberately. We miss the discount bin at Binny's, where you can always get a good bottle of wine for under $5!
