If you're stocking up for the year(s) a trip to KY can absolutely be worth the time.
I don't remember the store (may have been the party source) but I was blown away when I saw handles of sailor jerry on sale for less than half what i'd pay in ohio. I absolutely bought out the 4 remaining bottles on the shelf.
I'd say make the trip to KY, hit a few different stores and pick up sale items and some 190 proof everclear since I believe its now illegal in all states but KY and NV. Good for drinking, cleaning, disinfecting, engine fuel, brain fuel...you name it. Just use it like vodka, only use less than 1/2 of much. Less "watering down" of your drinks.
