How often do you get carded?

I only get carded at a few places. Those places tend to card everybody.
I'm 26 now, but I never had problems buying beer & liquor when I was 18-20 in college.
 
I don't really buy alcohol very often at all, but I've never been carded that I can think of...actually I had waiters at restaurants ask me if I wanted alcohol before I was even 21. (Edit: I'm 21 right now, 22 in a few months)
 
At the 7-11 I rarely get carded. But the liquor store and supermarket are almost 100%. It usually depends on how I'm dressed. When in shorts, t-shirt and my hat on backward they think I'm 24. (I'm 31)
 
33% for convenience stores.
33% for restaurants.
33% for grocery stores.
100% for college bars.
5-10% for regular bars.

I am 23.

 
Actually haven't bought anything at a liquor store...I don't typically get carded at supermarkets or convenience stores. Then again, I often pick something up on my way home from work, so I'm in shirt/tie..maybe that's a factor. 22yo.
 
When I am in shape (like now) about 50% of the time...I am 35.

When I am out of shape, even 10 years ago almost never.

If I have a goatee almost never.

The locations don't seem to matter....it's about even across the board here. When I am traveling convenience stores are the most lax.
