If they wanted to do that, they'd hardly be asking for the price of limos now would they? :rolleyes:

Feck the limo... Rent an ice cream van

They might be doing some cost analysis, and considering options.:p

F*ck it I've done my leavin, I no longer need this forum. Who the fck do ye think ye are getting a limo for a fckn debs at 17/18/19 years of age? Walk or get dropped off by yer parents like the rest of us and stop actin like thick,spoilt pricks. Who in their right mind would turn up to a fckn debs in a limo with people losin their jobs all across the country, probably some of yer classmate's parents. Have a bit of gracefulness ffs.

Limos indeed. F**k off.

That would be brilliant :pac:

Keeping on thread - I'd say a limo would be about 150 - 200

Those attending their debs perhaps?

From experience I couldn't tell you how much a limo cost. I was dateless for mine so got the bus with a few other people.

*cue violins*

It doesn't really matter what you show up in just so long as you're there and have a great night. People might frown upon a bus but these type of people seem to forget that you all travel back the same way.

€150 - €200??

i wish!
mine is €500 between eight of us and thats pretty much the lowest anyone in our year could get anywhere.
thats for about an hours journey though.

I hate this debs, I don't wanna even go anymore, I'd rather go out to town or something.

Unfortunately, my group of my friends had a vote on what limo to get, a Hummer limo or Lincoln/Chrysler limo. The Hummer won by a landslide victory. I'm going to the debs in a giant lego brick :rolleyes:

OneArt

If I end up going to mine, I'm getting the service bus into town and then my mate's mammy and daddy will bring us.

Screw limos. That's good money that can be spent on much more important things like getting smashed off one's face.

Dr. Baltar

So like, there I was, roysh, ordering a limo to sit my orse in for the debs when I see some of these howiyas complaining about this so-called recession. Back to the breadline you fockers!

Breadline's closed due to budget cuts.

Let them eat cake.

mines 420 between four of us with four pick ups and three bottles of chamagne.
itll be for about two hours at least anyway.

SarcasticFairy

Ours is €400 between 10. It was originally supposed to be €800, but there was something about the committee and the debs company or something. I'm not fully sure because I didn't organise it, but it's half-price anyway. Didn't really want to go in a limo tbh, but the majority of my friends wanted one, so we're getting a limo!

Wow this stinks of begrudgery. Some people can afford limos, some can't. If the OP can afford a limo, who are you or anyone else to tell him/her that they "shouldn't"?

I'm not going to get a limo, as the debs is a 10 minute drive from my house so I'll just get my dad to drop me off in the car.

People who get limos make me laugh SO damn hard.

TBH, it's usually not the people who can afford it who get limos. It's usually cheap, trashy scum.
But that's just from my experience of it.

The bus. With the rest of your class. Get the bus with the rest of your class.

I can say that I would never get a limo (even if I had limitless amounts of money). I've been to three full debs, and for each I've travelled on the bus. Going on the bus is honestly the best fun you can have (it's one of the highlights of the whole experience, for me anyway).

There's an air of pretentiousness that typically accompanies those who travel in a limo (in my experience, anyway).

They can do what ever they want. I'm just saying what I think of it, albeit in an agressive manner I agree. Perhaps I should have just said below......

I take it you mean "class" in both senses of the words

Have to say I agree with this. I knew people who got a limo for their debs and they were neither pretentious arsheoles nor chavvy scum. They just wanted the experience of riding in a limo so as to get their Debs off to a good memorable start. And there's nothing wrong with that.

I didn't fork out for one but didn't look down on anyone who did. For some people the Debs is a big deal. I never got the big attraction myself tbh.

We payed €700 for ours, but we got 4 bottles of champagne aswell, wasnt too bad because we had 14 in ours so €50 each

andyman

Not a fan of limo's if I'm honest. I think they look kinda tacky and it's a bit on the expensive side as well.

We're organising buses to and from our debs. I reckon it'll be better banter than getting a limo and it works out much cheaper, too.

Pigwidgeon

our debs is a good bit away from the school, so there's buses going. never even occured to me to get a limo, none of my friends wanted to either. We're paying for the bus as part of our tickets we may as well use it.

MrPirate

We rented a fleet of Nissan Micras with a bottle of everyone's friends, Jack and Vlad, in each.

snazzy

I agree with the bus thing being way better fun




But when are ya ever going to get to ride in a limo again for the craic!!?!

Blondiegirl2009

Hav ye all got dates sorted? Im gettin to the stage of insulting someone:o

A Neurotic

My stupid f*cking wench that I'm bringing seems quite taken with the idea of a limo.


She's on thin ice here ladies, there's hope for ye yet.

andyman

Mine's gone to the Gaeltacht for three weeks and hasn't mentioned the idea of a limo. Hopefully it'll stay that way!

Blondiegirl2009

discostick12

My mother was getting extremely worried that I wouldn't be able to bring a date because I didn't know that many girls (shows how much she knows/I tell her). I was just waiting for the right girl to ask tbh. I was going to ask one of my best friends but decided against it when I heard she had left a debs she was invited to last year at 11pm to go to her boyfriends house, which is a bit of a harsh way to say thanks to the bloke that invited her. I don't get along with said boyfriend either.

I then decided to ask a 5th year I've known for about 6 months and kinda fancied (charmer, me). She said yes and we ended up meeting.

:smugsmiley:

Aw well done, good man! A happy ending

Is "meeting" a euphemism for something?

You asked her so you obviously met before?

Shifting, snogging, kissing, pulling, scoring or whatever you call it.
