What $100 gets me or how to beat the new tax on liquor

Inspired by Sheryl Julian of the Boston Globe and looking to stock up on supplies before Massachusetts started taxing liquor purchases on August 1, I went to Kappy's and Atlas Liquors last week. I got two bottles of Old Overholt Rye, one mega-sized bottle of Bombay Gin, one bottle of Fee Brothers Orange Bitters (yummy), one case of Stella Artois, two bottles each of Gancia Extra Dry and Mionetto Brut Prosecco for just over $110. I used one bottle of the Gancia with the blueberry (from Russo's) and chocolate chip pancakes I made for Sunday breakfast.
