Thinking of a late-night beverage run in Virginia? You'll want to keep an eye on the clock, because it seems the state has a bit of a "Cinderella" rule for its alcohol .
According to the Virginia Administrative Code, gas stations and other retailers with an off-premises license must stop selling alcohol at 12:00 midnight. Your opportunity for that last-minute six-pack or bottle of wine effectively turns into a pumpkin when the clock strikes twelve.
Sales can fire back up bright and early at 6 a.m., so if you miss the cutoff, you'll just have to wait for the sun to come up before you can make your purchase. Plan your evening accordingly
