What is one method authorized stores can use to ensure alcohol is not available outside permissible sale hours?

  1. Installing security cameras

  2. Locking refrigerators containing alcohol

  3. Having a security guard present

  4. Offering discounts during those hours

The correct answer is: Locking refrigerators containing alcohol

Locking refrigerators that contain alcohol is an effective method for authorized stores to ensure that alcohol remains unavailable outside permissible sale hours. This strategy physically restricts access to the product, thereby preventing unauthorized purchases during times when alcohol sales are prohibited. While other methods, like having security cameras or guards, may contribute to overall security, they do not directly prevent sales. Offering discounts during prohibited hours could encourage sales instead of restricting them. Thus, locking the refrigerators is a straightforward and direct approach to comply with alcohol sale regulations.
