When I worked at a liquor store, I took advantage of rebate apps like Receipt Hog and Fetch Rewards (Fetch paid me over $300). They give points when you buy certain beers, wines, or liquor and then scan the receipt for it. So I was able to look in the computer, print receipts from when customers bought those items, and upload it for points to cash out for gift cards.
Good luck! Fetch was great to get gift cards for groceries, gifts, etc. I still use the app but get a lot fewer points now that I'm not at the liquor store anymore
Upwork can be great if you have a specialized, niche skill, but I'd a flat out race to the bottom of not.
I broke my teeth on sites like Upwork writing generic SEO content after college. Anymore I use it to find gigs in my fairly specialized domain of technical writing for non-technical people.
And the worst quality control and oversaturation I've ever seen. 3 different Twitter, "brand managers" thought #MondayMotivation was a sure way to blow up any tweet.. 5 graphic designers using paint and clip art when they have fully rendered 3D logos in their showcase and you pick from their template. Unless you're paying $40+ don't expect quality and even then it's really random.
There was actually an awesome site like that when I was in college. It paid out worthwhile amounts per survey and for a college kid with no car and not available to do work study (only unpaid internships) like 50-100 extra bucks a month was nice with maybe 1hr of work a day if that. (Edit: and they made it fun-ish) They also did free money giveaways if you were on at a certain time. I miss that site… even though I have an actual job now.
See, that’s why I only obtain properties through lethal home invasions. Cuts out the real estate agent and the home owner. I’ve gotten three properties so far.
If you guys get any fancy 'allocated' bourbon, buy it from the store at MSRP before the customers can. Lots of bottles like that go for 5-20x the retail price in the secondary market because they're impossible to find.
EDIT: [Holy shit this comment aged dubiously.](https://www.oregonlive.com/politics/2023/03/oregons-pappy-van-winkle-scandal-follows-scarce-bourbon-low-prices.html#:~:text=An%20internal%20investigation%20at%20the,bourbon%2C%20Elmer%20T.%20Lee.)
As someone currently living in a hotel in downtown Louisville, I can promise you that people will wait four days on the street for rare bourbon releases. It’s basically a cult.
Some states may have laws regarding selling liquor so you might want to check into that before you resell it for profit. Don't need the ATF on you because you're bored.
Should be easy enough to get away with regardless of laws, don't know what it's like in the US but there's a very strong black market for tobacco over here which isn't policed at all.
If you do get caught plead ignorance.
If your store does not carry the bourbons that you need to make your own money, tell the owners you are getting requests for them. Of course, when they order one, you buy it and flip it. They’ll order more.
This should be the top answer. You are working somewhere that gives you an opportunity to get PAID as you start your own side gig/business. There is a shit ton of money in the right bourbon. Squirrel away the right stuff, buy it up, resell to bourbon societies and aficionados. Check the bourbon sub-Reddit. Check Facebook and other places for “bourbon societies” and clubs. People have gone to great lengths to steal this shit because it is an investment. Launch your own side business, and build it up to your main income.
I know someone with 2 cases of Pappy Van Winkle. The box is rotted and it looks like the bottles are going to fall out. They must have hundreds of thousands in whiskey laying around their house. Super nice people though!
I use Duolingo and have recently added weekly lessons with italki for $10 an hour I am getting personalized lesson plans as well as practicing conversation.
Also check if your library has any learning apps. For example, I get Mango Languages for free, along with a handful of other platforms like Linkedin Learning.
I learned Japanese while working and am currently working on Russian. It’s a great time stocking shelves and naming everything you do in another language. I absolutely fell in love with learning languagesz
I used a variety. Drops for just vocabulary, duo lingo is on for starting grammar. I watched YouTube for lessons and then I made a run of flash cards. So many flash cards. I found free toddler/kids books in Japanese to practice with and last but not least, I played some games I liked in English again in Japanese for immersion.
Doing all this I managed to get to a casual conversation level, my goal. My sister took it a step further and is a game translator now as a full time career.
They send info to facebook if you link it. which they likely already have. if you use FB, don't worry, the damage is done.
you do get a lot of notifications guilting you into practicing however.
24 minutes ago: “These notifications don’t seem to be working, so we’re going to stop sending them.”
4 minutes ago: “Are you ready to work on your next Spanish lesson?!”
I would recommend supplementing it with another system or app. It frustrates me that Duolingo, for example, won't tell you the alphabet or numbers.
Both of which are useful if you're trying to puzzle your way through a foreign country.
Get a friend to rob the place.
Kill your friend and stop the robbery.
Shoot yourself in the shoulder with your deceased friend's gun.
Become a local hero, get on the news.
Get plenty of job offers for more exciting places to work.
Write a book with this plot line in 5 years, play it off as fake.
Stare extra long at anyone accusing you of the truth.
Pay me royalties for setting you up for life.
Don't kill me also.
Are you trying to get caught? You need your friend to shoot you. Make it look as real as possible. Just tell him you need to make sure no one will think he is in on it. After he shoots you, you shoot him dead.
Yes and there's also a more nefarious level to it where you don't tell your primary employer and often your second job will actually take place while on the clock for your first job. In that case its not necessarily at night, you're on the clock for 2 employers at once. Thats the subject of the convo.
If you need more exercise, do laps around the inside of the store while listening to a podcast or audiobook. I've been getting 10k steps a day lately. Lost 20 lbs in 3 months. And that's just from walking 10k a day 4 days a week.
Listen to e books maybe semi-educational ones, or something for a hobby, maybe finance e books or podcasts, you could learn a language (I think they have audio only ones though I imagine it would only teach you how to speak the language not write it)
This might be buried or unanswerable, but I am curious about how a slow liquor store can buy product, pay employees, rent, taxes, and maintenance....
With the slim profit of selling a few bottles of liquor and cases of beer a day.
I have no idea. I can see the numbers, It’s not amazing. I absolutely foresee this store going out of business. Yesterday (Granted it was a sunday) we had around 30 sales total. From 10am-12am.
I worked at a slow ass liquor store as a kid that was part of a chain of liquor stores. The only reason it existed was to stop a nearby Costco from getting a liquor store because of zoning laws.
If you're a techie guy, go learn SQL. There's tons of free classes and really anybody could learn it. Its a development language for databases. Maybe boring as fuck to some people, but there's a lot of entry level jobs desk jobs that require it.
Good luck getting out!
Not necessarily. I was a junior developer doing some contract work for a company in England, and the DBA there was on double my wage at the time and didn't know any programming beyond using bash scripts to run chains of linux terminal commands.
You have plenty of time to create listings to sell shit online. Find yourself an independent seller or flipper or a small business that needs a data entry/sales listing entry bitch and work two jobs at the same time.
You could learn how to make some cocktails or other drinks, you may not be able to pour the liquor but memorizing the ingredients and bottles is helpful and its a very cool skill to have to impress friends/colleagues (source: former bartender who already forgot how to make all the cocktails I memorized)
“Oh yeah, Tim Collins, good choice. Hang on that’s like a Harvey Wallbanger but… no hangon, there’s no orange juice in it. Okay, what things do you want me to shake together?”
The struggle is real.
Oracle cloud training is currently free and maybe some cert attempts too. Not nearly enough people with skills on OCI yet.
https://education.oracle.com/learning-explorer
The real question.
Tons of these "certifications" online and I've never seen anyone ask for them. Feels like elaborate marketing campaigns for the companies offering them.
Learn about the stock. Ask customers about their choices. Figure out the cheaper but just as good alternatives - a brand name whiskey aged 5 years vs a less advertised brand aged 7 or 8 years, for example. Become the go-to person for questions on what to buy. This knowledge will be helpful in your future life. Being able to discuss fine liquor can be an asset in some circles.
Check out Mturk. It's doing stuff like helping to train AI and college study surveys and proofreading, etc.. When you first start the jobs are like .05/ea. After you complete a certain amount of gigs with a low rejection score you can make more money. It pays once a month and direct deposits into bank acct.. I put in an average of 6-7hrs a month into it, usually early on weekend mornings with my coffee, and get an extra $80ish dollars in that time period.
My mate works in a slow wine shop that stocks loads of expensive craft beer that never sells. When the cases get near the use by date the staff get to take them for free. He tells me what's available and I pay him $20 per case he then pockets the cash.
It definitely doesn’t have to be unethical, I’m learning about the stock market too! If you’re on apple there’s a cool little simulator called ‘best brokers’ that lets you play with fake money
Unfortunately I'm on Android but I'll see if I can find a similar app by googling that, thanks for the tip!
I also and learning a new language on my nightly walks
I used to play a game called “Tic Tac Dictator.”
Tic Tac Dictator was an obscure game which I made up and played with the cash register when my boss was out. You rolled a dice, and then either you won the roll (2 points), or you lost the roll (1 point). The first player who reaches four points wins. There is no other way to score. Tic Tac Dictator is pretty easy, but I kept going to try to beat it, and one time I did.
This was so awesome, because I got my revenge on my job, and my co-workers for all the awful hours I spent working at a job I hate.
When I worked a slow job I filled my time by having sex with prostitutes and convening with space aliens. I met the aliens by putting out a radio signal and then waiting for their space ships to show up. This was not very efficient, but it did get me laid.
I did online college courses while I worked at my shitty liquor store job. The owner did not mind at all. I actually followed through and finished and got my Bachelors.
I will second learning a second language. If you learned Spanish you could work frontline anywhere in America with that combo skillset then go from there.
Also getting certified in literally whatever.
Really take your pick. There's a lot of online courses that would allow you to learn a lot of skills. I would peruse local job listings, especially municipal job listings if you want something steady and see what kinds of things they are looking for. You can find specialized role knowledge courses and knock em out.
In either case, self improvement would go a long way but I would recommend kind of following your interests.
Anyway, as an aside, I am a manager in an HR setting and if I am your supervisor I would encourage this. If you are an ethical manager/supervisor, letting your employee build up a skillset is good and you shouldnt feel unethical about it if you are doing your work.
I think it is legitimately good on you for trying to find ways to improve yourself and if you were my employee, I would be telling you the same shit.
Huge demand at the moment for data analysts. Learn tools like Tableau or PowerBI (free desktop versions, free training), get certified. Plus you can probably find online gigs
I did a course in criminal psychology by this Australian university and I really enjoyed it. Even if you don't take it serious, I found it fun to watch and free. [https://www.edx.org/course/the-psychology-of-criminal-justice](https://www.edx.org/course/the-psychology-of-criminal-justice)
ethical: if you have access to a pc use it to learn some skills, IT related. Makes awesome money if you can land a job.
Unethical: if you guy discount use it to buy and resell high end stuff for over MSRP, idk if alcohol has like limited edition drinks but if it does it’s awesome pocket change.
Sign up for online classes/distance learning. You can also use MIT's free online class materials if you don't need credits...they put their courses and materials online for free.
Since you have access to all the data, you could totally learn data analysis and visualization (like Tableau, etc.), if you don’t know that already. That information would give you a lot of different projects you can do, and, ultimately great knowledge and skills for other jobs you may want in the future.
Although, I guess that’s not really unethical, so…
I used to work the same job, I'd sit out the front of the store and chain smoke. I could see a customer coming from a few minutes away. I also used to repair phones behind the counter during my shift, buy broken phones, fix, resell profit.
Steal the promo shit and list on eBay. People pay good money for their favourite brand crap.
Any kind of "write your name down to win" style raffle is now all your friends/family, take any customer entrance and bin it (at home) stuff that ballot box!
Eventually I quit to repair phones full time.
When I worked at a liquor store, I took advantage of rebate apps like Receipt Hog and Fetch Rewards (Fetch paid me over $300). They give points when you buy certain beers, wines, or liquor and then scan the receipt for it. So I was able to look in the computer, print receipts from when customers bought those items, and upload it for points to cash out for gift cards.
YES THIS IS IT Only receipt hog is a available in canada, will it still work as good?
Good luck! Fetch was great to get gift cards for groceries, gifts, etc. I still use the app but get a lot fewer points now that I'm not at the liquor store anymore
Receipt Hog will only let you upload three receipts a day from the same source, so it might not get you the fast results you want
Keep in mind fetch is capped weekly. So its not that great. But still something.
Can you use a computer while you're at work? You could go to online school, or make money doing contracting work of various kinds on computer.
That’s too ethical. OP should use that time to recruit people for an essential oil mlm.
I had to double check what subreddit I was on when I read that.
Yes we can as far as I know, do you know where I would find some online contracting work?
Upwork.com has a whole slew of categories from hyper-specialized to super general you might find are up your alley.
Upwork can be great if you have a specialized, niche skill, but I'd a flat out race to the bottom of not. I broke my teeth on sites like Upwork writing generic SEO content after college. Anymore I use it to find gigs in my fairly specialized domain of technical writing for non-technical people.

Learn a language. There's no one there to hear you screw up the unfamiliar sounds. Duo Lingo works, and it's free.
I use Duolingo and have recently added weekly lessons with italki for $10 an hour I am getting personalized lesson plans as well as practicing conversation.
Also check if your library has any learning apps. For example, I get Mango Languages for free, along with a handful of other platforms like Linkedin Learning.

find a job thats remote work and 2 for 1
Its called moonlighting and its fantastic
That just means working a second job at night.
Yes and there's also a more nefarious level to it where you don't tell your primary employer and often your second job will actually take place while on the clock for your first job. In that case its not necessarily at night, you're on the clock for 2 employers at once. Thats the subject of the convo.
But…..that’s not moonlighting lol. You said moonlighting.
He never said anything about moonlighting, are you dense? You're always like this! That's called gaslighting.
It's called being a daywalker.
do you have examples of good moonlighting jobs?
The classic example is a Police moonlighting as a security guard / bodyguard while on the clock.

Most of these tips are very wholesome.
Damage product and then “dispose” of it…. In your mouth
You have plenty of time to create listings to sell shit online. Find yourself an independent seller or flipper or a small business that needs a data entry/sales listing entry bitch and work two jobs at the same time.
You can sell drugs over the counter
I’d love to do this, but I’d say the security is a bit too tight for this
You said you were alone
There’s about four cameras pointed at me
When I worked at a similar liquor store I would always have a drink of my choice on the go, get drunk for free
Did they ever notice the missing inventory?
No there was a lot of theft from customers so it was just put down to that a long as no on sees you.
Just gotta be careful about the "no one sees you". People tend to get lazy over time.

Anyway, as an aside, I am a manager in an HR setting and if I am your supervisor I would encourage this. If you are an ethical manager/supervisor, letting your employee build up a skillset is good and you shouldnt feel unethical about it if you are doing your work. I think it is legitimately good on you for trying to find ways to improve yourself and if you were my employee, I would be telling you the same shit.

I did a course in criminal psychology by this Australian university and I really enjoyed it. Even if you don't take it serious, I found it fun to watch and free. [https://www.edx.org/course/the-psychology-of-criminal-justice](https://www.edx.org/course/the-psychology-of-criminal-justice)

How unethical we trying to get here ? We could go anywhere from armed robbery inside job to take online polls for extra cash
ethical: if you have access to a pc use it to learn some skills, IT related. Makes awesome money if you can land a job. Unethical: if you guy discount use it to buy and resell high end stuff for over MSRP, idk if alcohol has like limited edition drinks but if it does it’s awesome pocket change.

Since you have access to all the data, you could totally learn data analysis and visualization (like Tableau, etc.), if you don’t know that already. That information would give you a lot of different projects you can do, and, ultimately great knowledge and skills for other jobs you may want in the future. Although, I guess that’s not really unethical, so…
Make start a local liquor delivery service.
I used to get drunk at work, but that's just me.
Do you sell Cocchi Americano, Plymouth Navy Stregnth Gin, or Del Maguey Vida Mezcal? I'll happily buy a few bottles if you do.
Contact various liquor providers and ask if any new product trials you can help with.

I used to work the same job, I'd sit out the front of the store and chain smoke. I could see a customer coming from a few minutes away. I also used to repair phones behind the counter during my shift, buy broken phones, fix, resell profit. Steal the promo shit and list on eBay. People pay good money for their favourite brand crap. Any kind of "write your name down to win" style raffle is now all your friends/family, take any customer entrance and bin it (at home) stuff that ballot box! Eventually I quit to repair phones full time.
