Preparations for the sale of alcohol from Monday are in full swing, with a rush on online orders and queues expected to form from early in the morning

Yesterday across the city, bottle store owners were supervising deliveries and the packing of shelves and fridges ahead of doors opening from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Thursday.

The ban on the sale of alcohol over the past two months led to a spike in illegal sales and home brews, and many who enjoy a drink have been placing online orders. Licensed taverns and restaurants may sell alcohol but only for off-site consumption. This concession is expected to help relieve the pressure on stores and reduce the distances people have to travel to get their hands on a bottle, can or box of their favourite tipple come Monday.
