How liquor pricing works in Virginia

Virginia ABC runs monthly specials, marked down directly in the state price list. A bottle on special reverts to list when the month turns, so the movers below catch those reversals.

Allocated bottles are distributed through Virginia ABC's lottery system rather than store shelves. Winners pay the list price; the lottery only decides who gets the opportunity.

Virginia ABC publishes its price list quarterly. Between editions, prices are stable statewide.

Are liquor prices the same at every Virginia ABC store?

Yes. Virginia ABC sets one statewide price per item, so a bottle costs the same in Richmond as it does in Roanoke.

How often do Virginia ABC prices change?

The base price list is published quarterly, with monthly specials layered on top. Special prices revert to list when the month ends.
