As per title. I very, very rarely drink, and I generally just want to buy a single of something for a rare treat, however most beers/ciders/etc are sold in multipacks.
The pricing on the shelf is usually per-pack only, yet sometimes I see random products with single cans/bottles missing, and sometimes random products will have a little section of unpackaged singles, despite not having a separate price showing.
Is it generally OK to split an unopened 4- or 6-pack, or is that as weird and inappropriate as doing the equivalent in a supermarket? What even are the rules around this?
I used to work at Dan Murphy’s and you can definitely just buy one can or bottle, and they won’t mind you breaking up the pack. Smaller bottle-o’s may prefer you didn’t though, so I would ask before breaking apart a pack.
In Germany this is common as well at the grocery store. However I did this in France once at a Lidl, and they couldn’t scan the individual bottles, so in the EU it may vary country to country
