Reply to comment by ThatWasTheJawn in Dear PLCB, it's now cost-effectiove for me to drive out of state to buy alcohol. Why aren't you passing your volume buying discounts to Pennsylvanians? by pm_your_masterpiece

Did something change? Admittedly it was 20+ years ago but a coworker went over the bridge, shopped in Jersey and went right back over the bridge. Useful to mention the guy was from France and was hosting a christening party for his baby son. Lots of wine. Some beer. He was pulled over. Potential fine was going to be $25 per bottle of wine and $10 per beer. Got a lawyer and got off. Which is why if I ever purchase in DE or NJ I make sure to stop and eat or do some other shopping and don't just go right back over the bridge after getting the booze.

The article doesn't say if the bill made it past the governor's veto: "But even this minor victory could be short-lived. The bill still needs Senate approval and might have to survive Gov. Tom Wolf's veto pen. Neither is assured."

Anyone know if it passes? It was a conservative bill and wolf was a democrat so he may have vetoed.
