The odds are pretty low that he bought those bottles from a major chain of anything, though.
Basically, even though poorly packaged, he knew he had two glass bottles in a flimsy bag.
I remember one time in HS, the only one of us who had a 21+ hookup one night insisted we all drink 40s. We were like damn, who gives a crap, buy some 30 packs. But no, dude is all wigged up, so he wants 40s. Long story short, he's carrying a box full of 40s to our spot, and he drops it. Every one of them smashed. Imagine a group of 17 year olds who just laid out cash and waited 2 hours for idiot to come up with the alcohol...
He spent the night handcuffed to the chain link fence in the yard.
