Djgb13 2,338 Posted June 14, 2019 Never drank from the mini bar when I vacationed overseas. Always from the actual bars at the resort. Would rather be out and about drinking at the resort than in my room. Only times I would be in the room was to change, shower, sleep, or fock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a friend with a house on the beach in Mexico. Not a shack. Two stories with a pool. I can go down any time, but I don't want to get held for ransom or some dumb shioit.

The DR has only one option and that is to slash prices and provide great service. The well run joints will survive. The economy places will not get the U.S. tourists.

Hardcore troubadour 12,631 Posted June 17, 2019 I remember a local bar burned down when I was in H.S. A couple of guys I knew went there and grabbed a bunch of liquor bottles. We were getting ready to go out in the woods and drink it, when one of our smarter friends told us that was not a good idea, that the liquor could be deadly. Maybe a place burned down there and someone sold the salvaged liquor to the resorts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kutulu 1,545 Posted June 17, 2019 Timely, watched the movie, The Master, yesterday. Besides being a focked up movie in general, the main character makes homemade hooch which is basically a posion. Stars J. Phoenix and PSH, btw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fake bootleg booze is a problem in China too. The bars sell empty bottles to some guy who refills them with God knows what and brings em back. It doesn't kill you, but it sure makes the next day suck. You learn to avoid this buy buying booze at reputable places, never ordering mixed drinks at a skeezy bar, and avoiding the popular name brands (jack and Johnny are the most commonly faked.)
