In Vancouver in the 1990s, if you wanted to buy a six-pack of beer at 10pm after the government-run liquor store closed, you would walk into a local pub and ask the bartender if they did "off-sales". If yes, they would sell you a cold six-pack for a very small markup.

Also, in Ontario in the 1990s, one-eighth of an ounce of weed was called a "half-quarter", ha ha.
