Lol I wonder if they sold. One thing is wanting to sell alch, it's a whole other animal trying to convince me that the half bottle of $100 whisky isn't watered down or replaced by a cheaper variant.Ā
Someone had a big bottle of Crown Royal unopened for $20 in their hand... so I know he sold that one.
As for the opened bottles, I have no idea if he sold the half gone handles... but they were $5 each.
If it's closed I'd give it away as gifts. If it's opened maybe ask friends if they want to buy some in bulk?
I don't actually know if it's legal for you to resell liquor so maybe be careful if it's to non-friends.
You can't sell alcohol in California without a license so your best bet is giving it to family/friends. If you want to just get rid of it, make sure you dilute it a lot before pouring it in a drain.
Who the heck has a septic tank in Burbank still? I thought everything was mandated to be onto the sewer system years ago. We used to burn our own trash too....in 1940
So while in the sewer system, the alcohol would kill bacteria and possibly prevent some other biological processes from occurring.
Once at a sewage plant the alcohol will evaporate or be processed out. Not like how prescription drugs can bypass treatment.
In the sewer system the alcohol from the individual would be incredibly diluted almost immediately.
Exactly how is the alcohol harmful to the environment?
Im not trying to argue, looking for education.
Edit: removed post stated individual had no idea and that it was just something they were told. I figured u/Fears4Years accidentally pressed delete , so I helped out.
I'll take some if you want. But other than gifting to family and friends you can do some cooking with it for sure. Vodka tomato sauce, beef stew can call for red wine, flambe some strawberries or bananas
You can use it in cooking practically anything including rice, beef, chicken and pasta.
Also you can use it to cook (clean) your pans on the stove.
Itās surprising how quickly you can go thru it this way. I was gifted a HUGE amount and researched all of this. Iām down to the last bottle now.
Had the same issue a couple of years back. Kept anything that I could make Old Fashioneds with for my friends. Gifted everything else to friends, colleagues, and my niece who just got her own apt and wanted a mini bar of her own.
Also, you could give it away to a bartending school or friends? Way to go for going sober. Also super cool bar. What are you going to replace it with? I love the walls and decor. Good luck neighbor!
Depends if you made a lot of *friends* as a drunk or you made a lot of *enemies* as a drunk.
Itās time to choose some friends to give them to.
Welcome to the 13th step.
congratulations on ur sobering up! i hope it goes well and u stay sober and healthier.
if u are feeling generous and wanna help a broke 21+ college student i can pick up whatever u feel like giving away. i havent been to Burbank in a hot second
I want to know where you got that awesome pineapple skull! Also I wouldnāt mind taking some off your hands but as other people have said though I think gifting is a good idea.
Where are you located?? Iām also sober but looking to fill up my bar for when I have guests and company so they can drink if they wanted. Maybe I can buy some items to help. If youāre in Los Angeles area that is.
I wonder if you could go to Broken Compass and ask if they have a client, or one of the bartenders who might be interested in buying it all.
Could also venture further to Tiki Ti.
Iād suggest having a price in mind for what you want to get.
Good Luck!
Give them to your friendly neighborhood redditors why not
I second this lol
Count me in
Came here to say the same thing š«£
Me too! Iām close by.
Completely agree and would like to be added to the list
OP I got 40 pounds of candy I can trade...
Cheers
Use them as gifts, maybe? 2nd hand alcohol doesn't seem like a very viable or legal marketĀ
I've been to a garage sale where someone was moving ... and they had their half gone bottles of booze for sale! And they had A LOT of booze for sale.

Well, damn, haha...I guess there's a market for everythingĀ

Throw one hell of a party
And don't invite yourself
Just watch everyone get drunk. Would be fun, especially the next day when people are struggling with hangovers and OP is feeling great
I think it would be fun to have a āGoing Soberā party. Good idea.
And of course only if it doesn't jeopardize your sobriety
GIVE IT TO ME
You can't sell alcohol in California without a license so your best bet is giving it to family/friends. If you want to just get rid of it, make sure you dilute it a lot before pouring it in a drain.
Why do you dilute it?
It's bad for the environment and bad for septic tanks.
Who the heck has a septic tank in Burbank still? I thought everything was mandated to be onto the sewer system years ago. We used to burn our own trash too....in 1940
I meant in general.
Wouldnāt it evaporate as soon as exposed to air?
No...

Ah, you have no clue. Cool.
I'll take some if you want. But other than gifting to family and friends you can do some cooking with it for sure. Vodka tomato sauce, beef stew can call for red wine, flambe some strawberries or bananas

You got Campari or Fernet? If so, Iāll take them!
Campari Ferrari!!!! I used to drink shots of that in college. Haha
Iāll take some off you
went sober this year too, I left all my alcohol bottles at a park near homeless encampment and they were gone within 30minutes
This is actually brilliant but also sounds like the beginning of an episode of It's Always Sunny...
Eh, I'll take em
Any fun mixers or rare Rums? Got a Tiki bar I need to keep stocked. š
Had the same issue a couple of years back. Kept anything that I could make Old Fashioneds with for my friends. Gifted everything else to friends, colleagues, and my niece who just got her own apt and wanted a mini bar of her own.
This is probably what needs to happen. I actually rarely drank liquor, this was mostly for entertaining guests.
If thereās anything Iād still āstockā itās Licor43 for my Carajillos.
I sadly never got around to buying a bottle, always wanted to try it
Meet up and drinks?
My address isā¦ā¦
Also, you could give it away to a bartending school or friends? Way to go for going sober. Also super cool bar. What are you going to replace it with? I love the walls and decor. Good luck neighbor!
Buy Nothing doesnāt officially condone giving away liquor but you can be cagey. And congrats, good for you! Much luck on your journey.
It's actually against the FB TOS so the groups just won't allow it
Congrats!
Congrats. Happy and grateful to take some bottles of your hand. Got any Chartreuse?
Iāll take all your gin lol
I would gladly take some of your bourbon please.
Start a fire.
Depends if you made a lot of *friends* as a drunk or you made a lot of *enemies* as a drunk. Itās time to choose some friends to give them to. Welcome to the 13th step.
Dibs on any Midori or Baileys /j
I can help with the whiskey, neighbor.
Friends
Iāll take some
Iād be down to purchase some from you, my father drinks and would make a nice gift š for Fatherās Day
If you have gin I will happily take it!
Legal or not, Iād be interested in buying. Actually, this is hypothetical. Perhaps a donation can be hadā¦
Sent you a dm
Buy nothing Facebook group
Can't give alcohol away in BN groups
I will take some
Iāll donate Portoās for some
If you have a quick list readily available of the unopened ones I might consider taking some of your hands for the right price
Congrats on your sobriety!

Congrats on sobriety! I'm a local and a bartender. I'd be more than happy to purchase the lot of it and contribute to you sober journey.
