It's hard to quantify.<br /><br />And both the George Dickels are only available by SLO. They've discontinued the No.8 twice over the years, the No.12 only once.

He proposed a price increase but they said no. They are afraid of the public. They got rid of the Finance guy last week. I will be curious to see how they cover their expenses. But then again they had a record year!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-591881213265091346.post-59800682143888512822014-11-12T21:58:00.878-05:002014-11-12T21:58:00.878-05:00Some PLCB stores are WAY bigger than others, but t...Some PLCB stores are WAY bigger than others, but to quote a news article on the subject, it is true that stores such as any Total Wine & More in NJ or DE "dwarf the largest PLCB store the way Home Depot dwarfs a traditional hardware store". But I do think the PLCB annual reports are valuable because due to the nature of their business, the PLCB has to adapt itself differently to each neighborhood it operates in. Some PLCB stores in very small, remote towns have very limited hours, only being open three or four days a week. So of course their sales will be nowhere near those at stores such as the one in the Bailey Building in the heart of Philadelphia, near Rittenhouse Square.Larry Mizellnoreply@blogger.com
