One of my local b&m stores puts the empty OWCs on the tops of the racks. When I buy enough bottles I ask for one of those to take with me. So while they do unpack the OWCs to put bottles out on the floor, those aren't necessarily destroyed.
The liquor monopoly here sells each 12 bottle case for 5 bucks and half that for a 6 bottle case, with funds going to the children's shelter and for children's activities. Kinda nice.
