"Dry" Holiday
Although supermarkets
and major retailers like
PriceSmart and Hipermás
will be open during
Thursday and Friday, the
sale of liquor and beer
will be suspended at the
12:01am Thursday and
continue until Saturday
morning, as the "Ley
Seca" - dry law - goes
into effect.
Bars will get a a visit
from the local police to
be have a seal on their
doors. Liquor stores
will be closed shut.
Restaurants can only
offer soft drinks and
water. Supermarkets and
major retailers will
have to cordon off their
liquor and beer
sections.
This is also a time for
alcohol abuse, as many
stock up before the Ley
Seca goes into effect,
and consumer greater
amounts during the
holiday days. |
