Quick question, can you buy booze online? Does anyone do this, and if so, what site(s) do you use? I am not really looking for cheaper options, as Keystone Light, and Titos at the Duty Free are pretty cheap, but for more options I can only get regionally(Canada mostly).

Some places will do it, some won't. States have different laws about it.

I do receive beer online from a site 1 or 2 times per month, but no other liquor is carried by them.

Hopsy is our main one, though it's not bottles or cans. It's basically a mini kegerator of sorts, but you don't have to worry about loading co2 or gas or whatever. You load in a container and it keeps it cool and "on tap" at all times. Something like 68 Ounces (2L per container)

They have many different types of beers, ciders, and a few non-alcoholic options like cold brew coffee and kombucha (barf). They introduce new things every few days and things fall off every once in a while. Shipping normally takes 1-2 days and must be signed for.

We always keep an extra bottle or two in the fridge so we can immediately use them when people are over. They cost approximately $14.99 per container which is maybe a hair high, but with a membership you can choose how many you want a month and shipping is free. We (By we I mean myself, my wife, and our friends that hang out here.) Absolultely love it and have gotten to try a ton of new beers in various styles that we normally wouldn't go after. Plus they do specials depending on time of the year. Oktoberfest for example had some really nice German beer options.

Not supposed to have it shipped, but I understand a lot of people do it.
Not sure how many people they catch.
First time or two your caught they take your shit and make you pay the tax.
If you keep doing it you could go to jail and face some hefty fines.
I would think shipping beer would be an unprofitable shipment due to the weight.

https://lcb.wa.gov/publications/importfile.pdf

"Bringing alcoholic beverages into the state means personally carrying alcohol beverages purchased outside of Washington State, into the state of Washington.
Persons who purchase alcoholic beverages for personal use cannot have the products shipped into the state unless it is wine shipped by a winery with a license to ship wine to consumers in Washington State. The winery then takes on the liability of tax collection and remittance."

I haven't tried online. Total Wine has such a nice selection that I can browse and impulse buy to my liver's content. I also like that Costco has big bottles of Woodford Reserve and Bulleit Bourbon.

^^^^^^^
+1 for Total Wine and Costco.
And Costco profits are limited to 15% on any single item.

I've used this company:

https://www.winetoship.com/

Bought both wine and expensive scotch from them.

Shipping to WA is OK but don't think you are going to evade avoid WA liquor taxes. They remit to WA state to keep it all legal.

Also, shipments REQUIRE an adult signature on delivery so make sure you are home or have and adult there waiting for the delivery.

Some wines can't be shipped to WA but this outfit has plenty of good selections.

There's a BevMo! in Bellingham. Worth checking out when you're in the area (and less traffic than getting to Lynnwood and back).
