When did Ben go alcohol shopping?
Was it after he showed up at the party and got fired, or after?

shareBefore, it was mainly to show you right away how much of an alcoholic he was I mean wow that was 1 load of booze.
shareOh wow...I was sure that opening scene was a flash forward scene to the booze he brought to Las Vegas with him, but if that really was just a typical grocery store booze run, then that is quite frightening.
shareIt's pretty far fetched the bottle of absolute vodka would alone be enough to send him on his way. In my area you would never be allowed to buy so much, but it's enough to send the viewers into the realization of how much an alcoholic he is.
shareHe had to buy that huge amounts when he was (remotely) sober, because many stores do not sell liquor at all to intoxicated customers.
And sadly, the amout he had in that trolley would probably not last longer than a week.
