Letter: Posted liquor prices mislead

The Columbian

Published: June 7, 2012, 5:00pm

I just returned from Jantzen Beach with about $80 worth of liquor. I figure I saved $30 by driving about five miles. I couldn’t help but notice that most of the prices were about the same as what’s posted in our Vancouver stores except that it was the real price, no taxes added on at the counter.

I also couldn’t help but notice how busy it was and all the Washington state license plates that filled the parking lot.
