Is it worth it to schlep back in a suitcase?
Certainly. Just make sure the bottles are protected so they don't break.

Maybe don't post it publicly here; it's probably illegal.
Only illegal if you plan on re-selling it. For personal use it's fine (except for in PA).

Legal for a store to sell alcohol across state lines?
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I just realized he was talking about Canada, not California. That's what happens when you don't think...

You're getting me confused. I was just asking if the savings justifies the bother of schlepping glass bottles around and making a special trip to the store in LA.

Apparently it's worth it. That's all I was asking.

Do you think all the stores selling online would so blatantly disregard the law?

You don't need to go to that specific store.

Most Ralph's or BevMo! will have the same great prices (and perhaps even better sales).

Hitimewine.net is a good place to order from located in California, I believe this and a few other places are mentioned up thread

Eta: seems mission liquor is better pricing for sure on scotches
Not sure about shipping though. ..

If you order a case, shipping comes out to around $4 a bottle. Still much cheaper then buying locally in NY.

What/where would be the cheapest place to buy several bottles of Glenlivet 12 or Nadurra. (The only 2 Glenlivets on the CRC recommended list)

Mission liqueur from CA has decent prices, but you need to buy a couple of bottles for the shipping to be cheaper

Overall shipping cost goes up a little bit per bottle. But the individual shipping (when divided equally per bottle) goes down the more you add.

You know anyone making a Simcha in the next few weeks / months? Pitch this as a great way for them to save $$$ compared to local prices (even when factoring in shipping costs).

I have an unopened bottle of 1792 thats been sitting on my shelf for quite some time. It's a Shaila of Chometz she'avar alav ha'pesach if it was made after 2009. There's no real way for me to find out. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Give it to a non-Jew as a holiday gift and be done with it. If it was a valuable bottle is another story.

But that's just me.

Some ideas:
