What can I do with various unopened bottles of alcohol?

Question

I have several bottles of hard liquors that I received from my guests at a few housewarming parties. However, I don't drink! Can I do anything with them, like return to a liquor store without a receipt? I figure I can't try selling them on Craigslist or something...but I don't want to just give away $150 in liquor.

Answer 1

Make it the gift that keeps on giving and just give it to someone else as a gift down the road.  Hard alcohol lasts forever, especially unopened, so it will still be good as new!

Answer 2

You are right you cannot sell on Craig's list.  My understanding of the law is that a store can give you credit but not refund money on alcohol sales.  So be sure to try and return to a place you will buy something from.

Answer 3

give them away as house warming gifts to friends also. they also make funny christmas gifts for friends you dont really know what to get. lol.

Answer 4

Cointreau can be used in a lot of cooking, as can any cognac or brandy.  You might want to save some of it for entertaining your future guests (after all, you just had a housewarming party).  Or, as was mentioned, you can simply save and regift it.  Just don't regift it to the same people.

Answer 5

i want them

lol

sell them to your friends

or give them to ur friends

or ahve a trash can party

Answer 6

you could return them to the store. explaining they are an unwanted gift

Answer 7

When you go to a party, bring them as gifts, but only to good friends.  You won't have to buy anything for a while.  People love those kinds of gifts!!  They'll work as birthday and Christmas presents too.

If you let a couple people know, there might be someone that would buy them from you.

Answer 8

maybe you should gather a few friends and family around and auction them off...you may not get the full face value but you get to have a nice party and a bit of fun too.

Answer 9

you can bring them to someone else's house when you get invited out.  or give them as gifts.
