Question

We are a family of 4 with several married children who come to us for meals on Shabbat. Are we allowed to purchase a crate of 12 bottles of one-liter Shemitah grape juice?

Answer

Shalom Rav,

It is permissible to buy a crate of grape juice because this is a regular household purchase amount, not an amount purchased for commerce.

[The rule regarding food for 3 meals pertains to the amount that is not subject to bi'ur at the time of bi'ur, which is on the upcoming Passover].
