The other day I was in the supermarket and it struck me that at almost every corner, maybe the top or bottom of every other aisle there was an alcohol promotion.
While I am partial to an alcoholic beverage myself and feel that I am fortunate to be able to enjoy a drink responsibily this is not something that others can do.
I think that alcohol should be confined to a defined section of the supermarket only, this would put less temptation in the way of those who would like to avoid it.
I have no gripe with cheap booze or that, but I feel it should be retricted and that if you are nipping in for a bit of shopping you should not be bombarded with booze.
One supermarket before Christmas was doing a promo, half price bottle of wine when you spent over €xx on groceries, this is surely wrong.
Am I too sensitive about this issue, what do others think?
