    I just turned legal age to drink last month and bought a glass of wine for myself with dinner the other night, first time I've actually paid for my alcohol and I didn't get carded, even though I'd gotten my card out and had it ready. I guess they assumed that because I had it out already I must be legal so they didn't bother to check.

    Yeah, I've found that most clerks will trust young looking people if they already have their ID out. I almost never got asked when I was picking up stuff because I had it out and ready.

      The liquor store at my old store had a sign out the front saying "Take it as a compliment." regarding the fact that they need to card anyone who looks under 25.

          I'll be 34 in a few months, usually don't have a beard, etc. Yet, I've never been carded...in any of the liquor stores I've been in. Er, I take that back--Collier's, in Cape May, NJ won't sell to *anyone* unless they've seen your ID. Oh, if only they knew of the booze that accompanied my family last summer--half of the 'fridge was loaded with it. We even had a few bottles in with the lunch meat

            I'm a few years older than that and I still get carded on occasion. I never have my id ready though 'cause I never know when it's going to happen.

              The only place I get carded at any more is Wegman's grocery stores. Their policy, is, I think (and don't quote me on this!): "If you're not dead, and you're buyin alcohol, we're cardin you!" (Why yes, I do like to amuse myself from time-to-time, why do you ask? ).

              Everywhere else, I have my card out and ready with my credit card, and no one asks me for it. Then I'm a sad Rum.

                i love wegmans!

                they didn't card me once cos the cashier was rushing, though i had my id ready


                now the liquor store down the road from me, they've gotten in the habit of carding me all the time, making a point of looking at me and saying, "I think we're going to have to card you" etc. i don't go in often, just once every few months, but only once have they not carded me.

                and the last time that happened i was 36. i should go back now that i'm 37 to see if they still want to card me. hell i get a kick out of it. ;-)

                  I personally LOVE getting carded. what a compliment!!I am now *mumbles* years old, and I always have my ID ready. My husband laughs at me when we go to the casino as I have it at the ready in case I get asked. They don't though case he looks like he's 50... he's sucking my youth away lol

                    I'm almost 32 and I think the ONLY time I ever wasn't carded was on my 21st birthday (irony, I know). Then, I've had people (yes, more than one and on more than one occasion) ask within the last year what high school I attend (dude, I KNOW I don't look that young!)...apparently there's a lot of married HS-ers in this town!

                      I was able to buy smokes at age 13, due to being tall and big busted... only got carded once when I was 25, which was irritating.

                        Exactly what kind of liquor is supposed to, in theory, be in the rainbow-colored bottles?

                        To name a few,
                        Chartreuse - neon green or yellow verities. Be forward -sip this stuff, its worse than vodka going down if you gulp.
                        Wine Coolers - I’m partial to Wild Berry. Its my cheep guilty sin.
                        Schnapps - Apple, Grape, watermelon, cinnamon, you name it I’ve only seen them in rainbow colors.
