Hi. Christmas Eve I went to Walgreens to purchase some alcohol and cigarettes for a party we were having that night. They had to see me ID for both items. Now I'm 71 years old and my license has expired due to the fact I can't drive anymore. (I got a ride from my granddaughter) I was told I couldn't purchase both items. Since when did the age to purchases alcohol go from 21 to 71. I was livid! I have been going to Walgreens for 50 years and never had a problem until now. I have a hard time getting rides from people so this was a huge dilemma.
The other day I went to Walgreens to buy liquor (and cigarettes for a friend) for a christmas Eve Party. I had to show my ID. Now I am 71 years old. They've never asked before. I had to leave without the things since I don't drive anymore. When did the legal age for buying liquor go from 21 to 71. Now I have been going to Walgreens for years and never had a problem .
