My friends and I shop here all the time. The selection is awesome and prices fair. They're located on a wide street, lots of in front parking, helpful and knowledgable employees, and quick delivery right to your home. Other beer shops in the city are not as clean, they're in unsafe neighborhoods, and have really arrogant staff. I always ask for a price list and compare those to the price cards on the shelves at Bella Vista; if ever there's a dispcrepency on a case I'm buying I bring it to the cashiers attention. I've never been given a hard time nor ever over charged. Maybe it's because I'm so familiar with shopping at Bella Vista Beer Dist (last 15 years since moving to the neighborhood) that I know the price list has precedence. That's not an excuse in not keeping the prices on the shelf accurate, but if someone was charged a $1.00 over on 3 occasions, maybe that's the correct price and we shouldn't be quick to jump to accusations. As far as I'm concerned their actual paper price list, (you can get at the window) is always accurate to the receipt. I can understand how it can be aggravating (i.e. @ CVS a big chain store, their circular will have an item at buy 1 get 1 at 50% off), and there have been so many occasions that I haven't been charged correctly on my receipt. We all need to be educated consumers and from my experience I make things known to the shopkeepers, where ever that may be if there are any conflicting issues. Does this mean that CVS, a national chain, was trying to rip me off? I still say NO! We have to give people the benefit of the doubt and not assume the worst in people. Don't get me wrong I am not a totally naive and trusting individual by any means, but I will say one thing about Bella Vista Beer Dist., it's always a pleasure giving my business to hard working people that are thankful and appreciative.
