Do not allow instantly redeemable manufacturer coupons.
 

Studies show that when the price of alcohol increases, there are reductions in motor vehicle crashes and fatalities, alcohol-impaired driving, violence and deaths.  Alcohol consumption increases when the price is lowered and this is particularly true for youths. Do not lower the price of alcohol by allowing manufacturer coupons.
