On the subject of crouching tigers etc. (joke), mixing cider and vodka is the absolute best way to get absotively trashed in my opinion.

I was merely advising the man as to how to save money while consuming a low-calorie drink. Hardly binge drinking as a naggin is surely not extreme excess.

As a student you will no doubt be familiar with Buckfast. This will work for all house parties.

As for in pubs/clubs etc. not sure none of the good stuff is cheap.
