* I’d have thought the top drunk purchase would be more liquor.
* Sears would still be a thriving department store if only they’d opened up a bar.
* How did tattoos not make the list?
* The dollar amount is probably higher – these are only the drunk people who stumbled across Finder.com.
* And I do mean stumbled.
