PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Starting this weekend, you'll be able to buy your drink of choice at more liquor stores across Pennsylvania.

On Wednesday, the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board announced several changes that will make having a drink a bit easier and less restrictive in the state.

Among the changes, Fine Wine and Spirit stores will have new hours on Sundays, and 94 stores will be open on this Sunday for the first time.

Previously, stores that had Sunday hours operated from noon until 5 p.m., but now stores can open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Another big change that has customers in good spirits is that under the new legislation, stores are no longer required to be closed on holidays.

And if you're feeling lucky, you can now buy a lottery ticket with that adult beverage, as lottery sales will be allowed at liquor stores for the first time.

Customers can play self-service games, like instant ticket machines.

Among the changes, you'll now be allowed to order wine from out of state and have it shipped right to your home. Also, your favorite places that sell beer will also be able to sell wine.
