Hamden CVS to Require ID on Nail Polish Remover Sales

By Jayme Kunze

The Hamden CVS on Dixwell Ave is taking part in a new region-wide policy requiring customer ID for nail polish remover purchases.

CVS stores located in southern New England are participating in the effort to stem the creation of methamphetamine, the Huffington Post reports. The acetone in nail polish can be used to make the drug, the Post said.

According to a WPRI article, customers will also be restricted in the number of bottles they can buy.

Tell us: Do you think requiring ID for acetone sales will reduce methamphetamine creation?
