WHEELING, W.Va. — Local liquor stores in the state could be faced with a reduction in sales this New Year’s Eve due to the festivities falling on Sunday, which will prohibit the purchase of liquor.

Though the holiday will cause a fluctuation in sales, Paul Lish of Smoker Friendly at The Highlands believes it won’t cause a serious problem. “Most people buy it on Saturday and most of my regulars know New Year’s Eve is on a Sunday,” said Lish.

Lish also owns and operates the Smoker Friendly store on Wheeling Island. He believes the holiday will affect the sister store more so than The Highlands location.
