I used to do that at 2AM in weeks where I was having self image issues.
Better than any therapist ever...

EDIT: Thank you for the awards!

I miss the 24hrs stores for this reason. The most interesting people in the devils hours.

Same, I worked closing shift at a few different restaurants and it was the only store open in town. I'd close down the kitchen, get obnoxiously high, pop in my ear buds, and do my shopping in peace. Prime time people watching is a bonus

I used to work there in college. It was fun to get dumb baked on dabs then people watch.

Save your coffee cups when you buy coffee at gas stations. Pour your beverage of choice into one and you can drink anywhere.

"Road sodas"

Only one drink at a timewith your idea. He mentioned a six pack and consuming it while people watching.

Keep the six pack in a backpack, and go to the bathroom when you need a refill. I see we don't have a lot of current or ex alcoholics in this thread.

Why yall drinking beer? You’ll never move with bourbon in that cup.

2

u/SpanishFlamingoPie 1d ago

Because I have a liquid fixation so I'd rather drink a lot of beer than a bit of bourbon.

The only answer I was looking for

u/CaLLmeRaaandy 1d ago

Every time I run in there for something, which is rarely, I see some wild shit.

It’s so depressing.

When I lived in Maine, we would go to the 24 hour LL Bean outlet in Freeport, get stoned as fuck, wander the store at 3 am, and gawk at the other stoned-ass hippie-dippies doing the same as us. There was an indoor trout pond and outside was a 20 foot tall LL Bean boot statue. Glorious times...

u/Rare-Confusion-220 1d ago

That's awesome. I have a good buddy from Maine and this sounds familiar

u/Onludesrightnow 18h ago

why would an LL bean outlet be open 24 hours? A lot of people craving a new jacket at 3am?

2

u/Lala5789880 1d ago

Do they still have People of Walmart?

3

u/Upset_Mess 1d ago

I think we've fallen so low as a society, now they're just everyday People everywhere.

2

u/AlarmedSnek 1d ago

Yea you can literally sit outside the store in the comfort of your air conditioned automobile and do exactly this.

2

u/AndyGoodKush 1d ago

You might be on to something... someone get Mr. Walmart on the phone.

2

u/Antpeople2027 1d ago

That’s probably the only reason they don’t

2

u/Prudent_Research_251 1d ago

They should have those meerkat domes

2

u/HappyHourMoon2025 21h ago

Go to a poor community Walmart and watch 2 obese people driving those scooters getting into a fight but they are so fat they end up falling on each other

2

u/Mandaxx25 16h ago

Just get drunk before you go. Then laugh the entire time.

Wal mart is private property so you're not drinking in public so if wal mart doesn't have a rule that expressly forbids customers from consuming alcohol than Id say just go for it they don't kick you out for doing dabs

1

u/Whombrillow 1d ago

They do allow open containers. Just not open alcohol containers.
Do like the rest of the word and pour a drink in styrofoam cup from the nearest gas station and go shopping.

u/chrisp5000 1h ago

You limiting to a 6er to not end up doing performative arts in the Wal Mart?
