The Boozy Blondes get deep in this episode as they reflect on the idea that time is the one thing you can’t buy more of or make more of. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. Which makes booze delivery services so valuable. It saves the girls vital time when their life-stream is brought straight to them! And really…is there anything better than having booze delivered right to your door?
The market has been flooded with different options of booze delivery services. Where do you start? Which offers the best deals? Who has the best selection? Can you gift delivery services? In this episode the girls break down nine services while enjoying a glass of their DOE: 19 Crimes Red Blend mini bottles. They reference this beverage in their “Pack Like a Booze Traveler” episode. You are sure to always find these mini bottles in both Chrissy’s and Molly’s travel bags. And fun fact, the most popular booze variety to be delivered is wine.
Currently 44 states allow delivery of alcohol – and it’s important to note this can differ by county in each state, so check your area’s rules before placing any orders.
